McLaren announced this week the pricing for the MP4-12C in the United States

McLaren announced this week the pricing for the MP4-12C in the United States will start at $229,000 exclusive of the $,2400 delivery fee. The McLaren MP4-12C is expected to hit US dealerships this summer.
Surely, the MP4-12C is not coming in cheap but the announced retail price is on the low side of the first estimated sticker price starting at $225,000 through $250,000. The McLaren MP4-12C is also slightly priced higher than the 458 Italia of Ferrari which starts at $225,325.

The McLaren MP4-12C has a twin turbo V8 3.8L engine that gives out 592 horsepower with a torque of 442 lb.-ft. This powerful engine is paired with a double clutch gearbox that helps the car get from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in just 3.8 seconds. The top speed can get over 300 km/h.

This McLaren also comes very light at 2,900 lbs due primarily to the monocell chassis made from carbon-fiber. This achievement in the design and materials used for the car makes its tag price reasonable.
