21 Years Back - The McLaren F1

If you're a car enthusiast the name McLaren means mean, fast, and exotic to you. McLaren to this day is responsible for some of the most expensive and highest performing cars in the world, but if we rewind back 21 years to the year 1993, the McLaren F1 was born. The McLaren F1 limited its production shortly after 1996 and there are only a few of them owned in the world. What many car enthusiasts may not know about the McLaren F1 is that it has shaped the way super cars have been manufactured to this day. McLaren was one of the first to venture into the territory of super cars and successfully did with it's F1 back in the late 90's and early 00's which has changed the standards of cars being created today by some of the fastest manufacturers; Bugatti, Ferrari, Pagani, and of course  McLaren just to name a few.

During its time the McLaren F1 outmatched and competition with its incredible speed and function. The McLaren F1 at 240 mph top speed, costing over $750,000 was a definite prize to be hold. So much so that the engine bay was made of gold. Ok the gold was to reflect heat more efficiently but still the car was made of gold... This car for its time was an absolute rarity and definitely developed past its time.

Today there are very few of the F1s left and each is easily worth over $20 million, but despite the age difference the McLaren can still hold its own against some of the fastest cars in the world.
