2012 TT McLaren MP4-12C Road Test! http://www.roadandtrack.com/tests/ca...claren-mp4-12c
Curb Weight in this test (Standard)= 3161 pounds
McLaren offers multiple weight-saving options that are capable of reducing the car's weight to approx. 2,868-2,945 pounds. They include "superlight" wheels, carbon sport seats (Recaros are standard), Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires, a carbon splitter and diffuser, a sport exhaust and carbon-ceramic brakes.
Midengine/ Rear Wheel Drive
7 Speed dual clutch automated with paddle shifters (only option available)
Twin Turbo 3.8L Port Injected v8 DOHC 32valve
592HP @ 7000rpm (Redline is 8500rpm)
443TQ @ 3000rpm
17.4 psi boost
Double wishbone front and rear suspension
Four wheel Independent Rear suspension
Dry sump oil system
0-60= 3.0
quarter mile= 10.9 @135
Top speed= 205mph
Braking 60-0 in 100ft
Tire size - Front 235/35/zr19 Rear 305/30/zr20
Price = 229,000
Wonder what the performance numbers would be with all the weight saving options

That's an incredible car. It's just crazy how many uber high performance cars there are these days. I can't keep up w/ 'em all. Seems like every other week there's another one comming out.
