McLaren P1 Design: Love It, Hate It, or Somewhere In Between? [Poll, Plus New Videos and Photos]

Although billed as a concept, in reality, the P1 is a pre-production teaser of the road car that will hit McLaren's glitzy showroom floors just before the end of 2013. Deemed by many as the spiritual successor to the great F1 of the 1990s, McLaren says <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/09/mclaren-talks-about-its-new-p1-hypercar.html">the P1</a> was designed with one simple goal: "to be the best driver’s car in the world on road and track". <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--ZqpuRA2AKc/UGdusYSF37I/AAAAAAAJWKI/EA1Zzvg2PG8/s1600/McLaren-P1-7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:10px; margin-bottom:10px"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--ZqpuRA2AKc/UGdusYSF37I/AAAAAAAJWKI/EA1Zzvg2PG8/s200/McLaren-P1-7.jpg" width="95"></a> We will have to wait for the production model to find out whether the McLaren P1 can live up to its promise, but in the meantime, we can ask your opinion about the hypercar's design and if it hits the right notes. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/09/mclaren-p1-design-love-it-hate-it-or.html#more">Read more »</a>
