Now that the limited volume McLaren 600LT Coupe is
all sold out in the US, buyers can turn their attention to the long-tail Spider
variant, which can be ordered effective immediately in return for at least US$ 256,500.
Like its fixed roof sibling, the 600LT Spider
features the same carbon fiber Monocell II chassis, optimized aerodynamics and
3.8-liter twin turbo V8 engine. However, it also comes with a three-piece
retractable hardtop that can be operated at speeds of up to 40 km/h.
At its disposal are 582 HP and 620 Nm of torque, to go with just 1,297 kg of weight, which
according to McLaren makes this car at least 80 kg lighter than any
of its direct rivals. With a power-to-weight ratio of 457 HP per tonne, the
600LT Spider can accelerate to 96 km/h in just 2.8 seconds.
Other impressive numbers include how its rear wing
generates 100 kg of downforce at 250 km/h, or the car’s
ability to accelerate to 200 km/h in just 8.4 seconds, as fast as
some hypercars.
The 600LT Spider has limited
availability, so if you’re planning on placing an order, you best hurry up and
do so. Meanwhile, you can configure your ideal 600LT by clicking here.
