Certainly looks like Ron Dennis is letting a bit of slack off the reins- much greater visual impact than the MP4-12c.

How on Earth can I car, a car that looks like that, get two responses in about five replies with the comment 'not bad'? Did the images not upload correctly? Were you guys both wearing your VW goggles, therefore obscuring any non-VW image from polluting your minds?
Love it or hate it, I fail to see how it can't inspire you two to come up with something more explanatory!
Trev, you have an excuse (or several) . You're a plasterer by trade so you could have been elbows deep in manual work and had a fleeting moment to post in between coats. Of course you could also have been fudding yourself stupid looking at Berg Cup videos; again totally understandable.
Connor..........oh Connor. No such excuses for you. Let me see........you posted just before 9am at work so you'd be drinking your cats milk Latte whilst having some 16 year old Aviva strumpet rub your feet and calves after a strenuous 5 minute walk to the office. You would have had the time to look at the HD images on your 24" company desktop, whilst comparing comments on Jalopnik and Pistonheads, asking for sage advice and counsel from guys in your 'hub'. You would definitely have the time to do this, because none of you work shy city types actually do anything productive until about 11am, just before you go for your two hour lunch break
That feels better. I know most of what I have posted is nonsense, but it pads out your woefully abrupt comments and should spark some banter if nothing else

You do make me chuckle

... and I don't drink coffee.
It's not bad, it looks very much like all other supercars really. I can see some Enzo in it, a bit of Zonda but more than anything it just looks like a modernised F1.
I can't really get excited by a car that I'm never ever going to be able to own - unless I win the lottery so I aim my love for cars that I do see myself owning.

I was about to type "meh" but having just had a caning from the headmaster a little more eloquence is probably needed.
The back is awesome, Startbuck and Apollo may have some form of panic attack if they came up behind it in traffic, but it is truly different.
The front is ... er .. a bit meh, (Sorry stu) I love the way the headlamps are McLaren badges, but after that it goes downhill, the swoop down off the front wings makes the point where the wing mirrors meet too low, giving the cockpit in pic 1 much too bulbous look to it.
This is better looking, and better proportioned:

Ha ha ha Stu, thats exactly what happens at Aviva :S
I do like it but I am not convinced on the front, why use a very similar front to a Lotus.
But the styling from the side and back is pretty nice. Doesnt it have kers also ?
That said its
