MP4-12C The North American Launch - Final Edit.wmv

[suzukiaddress125]

458 Italia is named because it has "4.5litter, 8cylinder" engine right? Why is this one called "MP4-12C"?

[Swordyful]

@suzukiaddress125 MP4 = McLaren Project 4. The C means "Carbon" ( Carbon MonoCell ). The '12' refers to McLaren's internal Vehicle Performance Index through which it rates key performance criteria both for competitors and for its own cars.

Thats the whole thing ;)

I still think it is ugly. And the name is crap. What the hell is MP4-12C? Can we not give our cars names that sound good anymore?

And agreed with the people below. Get the damn car on the road and in the hands of performance tests.

I am passionate in everything that is British, wanted to see that MP4-12C in some British or American film, he is perfect as all that is British!

im getting sick of the spin now. i wanna see some lap times and some vs.

@merLin123a _______________EXACTLY!!! Enough with all the lip service on how "great" this thing is. Put it up against some LP550's, 458's, Porsche turbo's, GT2's, and ZR1's. I love Mclarens, but all this hype is getting lame. Time to put the damn thing on some tracks and toss it around!
