Lanzante is celebrating the 25th
anniversary of its 1995 Le Mans win in the F1 GTR by launching seven unique
conversions for certain McLaren models. Announced two months ago and previewed
on social media in official renderings earlier this week, the bespoke ‘LM 25’
package will be limited to the 600LT Coupe and Spider, Senna, Senna GTR, 765LT
Coupe and 765LT Spider which is not out yet. The seventh and final model will
be confirmed in due course.
All seven of them will boast unique looks,
inspired by the iconic F1 GTR, and will be finished in Ueno Grey, with light
grey accents on the lower parts of the body and carbon fiber trim. They will
ride on five-spoke carbon fiber wheels with matching-grey finish, which shave 7 kg off the standard set, PistonHeads reports. The gold brake
calipers with red McLaren lettering are another nod to the iconic racer.
The cockpit has yet to be previewed, but
will feature lightweight bucket seats saving another 18 kg, LM 25 logo
in the headrests, red and blue harnesses, black Alcantara-wrapped steering
wheel with white stitching, gold accents, special carbon entry sills, carbon
floor mats and a numbered plaque. Under the hood, the V8 engines remain
untouched, though the company will replace the stock exhaust heat shields with
gold ceramic coated ones, a material used for the tailpipes as well. The
bulkhead sticker will bring it closer to the F1 GTR and there will also be an
LM 25 logo on the power unit’s cover.
Lanzante will need around three months to
convert each car, and pricing starts at £ 144,000 (US$ 190,000) in the UK.
