McLaren Reveals MSO Carbon Series 675LT Spider

McLaren Special Operations, the skunkworks within McLaren Automotive, has created a new version of the company's 675LT Spider model. Decked out in exposed carbon fiber, the limited edition model is known as the MSO Carbon Series LT. The MSO Carbon Series LT is essentially a 675LT Spider finished in exposed carbon fiber. However, it took a lot more than just stripping some paint to arrive at the MSO Carbon Series LT. The MSO model actually features about 40 percent more carbon fiber parts than the standard 675LT Spider, meaning that the new carbon fiber bits can't be retro-fitted onto an existing LT model. In addition to carbon fiber everywhere, the MSO Carbon Series LT also features GT3-inspired louvers on its front fenders and McLaren's Track Telemetry pack as standard. The MSO Carbon Series LT is powered by the same 666 horsepower 3.8L twin-turbocharged V8 found in the regular LT model. McLaren says the Spider call accelerate from 0-62 in just 2.9 seconds with the blast to 124mph taking just 8.1 seconds. Top speed is pegged at 203mph. McLaren didn't announce pricing, but the company says it has already sold out of the 25 MSO Carbon Series LTs it plans to produce. (leftlanenews)
