McLaren Speedtail Review: Sleek, Striking, Steep Priced

 

  The gorgeous McLaren Speedtail is what car aficionados have longed for for decades. Basically, what happened is that in 1992 is that McLaren (A brand-new automaker) came out of nowhere and made the best car in history, the mighty F1 (For more info, check out my blog on the F1: MoreThanTransport: McLaren F1: Reviewing The Greatest Car Of All Time) To put it plainly, McLaren got enthusiasts hooked on the F1, and they wanted more. Since then, McLaren made several great supercars, such as the P1, 720S, and others, but they didn't exactly follow the F1's blueprint. The Speedtail did. When designing the F1, McLaren decided the car would be a much better driving partner if it seated the driver in the middle of the car, with 2 passengers behind him. Their theory worked, as the F1 became the fastest car in the world for an astounding 13 years. The Speedtail also employs a 3-seater, centered-driver approach. Thanks to that, and the engineers obsessive approach to keeping the Speedtail, it reaches an incredibly inpressive 250 mph, a huge 10 mph over the F1. Another thing, McLarens look so flippin' beautiful. The Speedtail looks like it belongs in a fine art museum, and we both know it.
