The McLaren MP4-12C made its North American debut in Pebble Beach earlier this week.Gooding Auctions unveiled the new supercar at its preview reception, the same locale that has seen the debuts of other significant vehicles from the past few years – namely the Rolls-Royce Hyperion and the Pininfarina P4/5.
The car uses a 600-horsepower (447-kW, 608-PS) twin-turbo 3.8-liter V8 engine that delivers up to 599 Nm (442 ft-lb) of torque. Mated to a Seamless Shift seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, the car is capable of a 3.8-second 0-100 km/h sprint time, on its way to a top speed of over 300 km/h (186 mph). McLaren Automotive has already announced the list of 35 cities that will be hosting McLaren dealerships.
