McLaren MP-12C is designed by Frank Stephenson, as I today share the interview with him I wanted to upload the pictures of his design. As I mentioned before, this car is totally different than its competitors. First of all, if you are planning to show-off, this is not the right car for you. But if you want to have a real sport car and drive it every type of road condition, this is it. Regardless of taste, everyone who drives this car says one thing, if it as comfortable as a Rolls Royce and better than a Ferrari.
