McLaren MP4-12C finally flaunts a price tag

McLaren-MP4-12C-1.jpgIt's McLauren first road car in decades, and after months of waiting the sport giant has finally put a price to its carbon-fibre tubbed MP4-12C, so you can own one. The good news is that for the sum of $229,000 you'll have a car that's on par with the Ferraris and Lamborghinis. The bad news however is that this would include no extras - like the bespoke paint, the lightweight wheels and the three-camera interiors. But what the heck even at its basic its a varoooming beauty. Order now and expect delivery by 2013.McLaren-MP4-12C-2.jpgMcLaren-MP4-12C-3.jpgMcLaren-MP4-12C-4.jpgMcLaren-MP4-12C-5.jpg[Autoblog]
