For many, the greatest Super Car ever built. This is what Mr. Ron Dennis had to say about the F1 'The More We Discussed It, The More It Appealed To Me. One Thing Was Certain, If McLaren Was Going To Build A Sports Car, It Would Not Only Be The Finest Sports Car The World Had Ever Seen, But Also The Finest Sports Car The World Was Ever Going To See.' Brilliance takes time. It took four years to meticulously plan, design and build the all-conquering F1. Beautifully engineered and exceptionally quick, the F1 broke numerous world records during the ‘90s, and it remains the fastest naturally aspirated road car ever built. Only 106 cars were made in a limited production run, making the F1 one of the most exclusive cars in the world today. (Text: Adapted from McLaren)
