McLaren and Ferrari have struggled out on the road and circuit racing since the 1960s, so when Ferrari revealed the 458 Speciale rapid heralded as the best supercar in 2014, McLaren knew they had to do something spectacular to overcome the various obstacles that.
At the Geneva Motor Show in 2015 they revealed their reply - 675LT. Based on the 650S, which 675LT use something very special as inspiration - LT (Long Tail), a tribute to F1 1997 Longtail used to homologate the racing car of the same name. Although car bodywork drastically, while still less extreme 675LT.
On the front of the 675LT has the same general appearance as the 650S, but with a front splitter arrangement longer and have aggressively in carbon fiber, and a new wing section ahead of the front wheels. Extended side sills outwards and now includes brake line where he joined arch backward granted cooler. Side intakes greater cooling as well, while there is a new louvred engine cover polycarbonate to aid cooling.
This latter is where things really changed though, with the rear bumper dramatically changed featuring vents on the sides and a large carbon functional diffuser. Twin circular pipe in the form of a new titanium exhaust system out between the rear lights under spoiler new Longtail. It is 35mm longer than the standard model 50% larger and overalls when working as Airbrake. A new set of enabling lightweight alloys complete the look.
Under the new engine cover sits a heavier version of the 650S 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8, producing 666 bhp and 516 lb / ft of torque. Combine this with the 100 kg body weight reduction of the use of carbon fiber and the extra if exceptional performance statistics. 0-62 mph takes 2.9 seconds and 0-124 mph in 7.9 seconds discussed. The highest speed drops 2 mph to 205 mph even though there are additional barriers from the aero setup.
