1995 McLaren F1

The McLaren F1 is the ultimate street car of the 20th century. When it appeared, the F1 was the fasted production car in the world at 240.1 mph, a record it held for a decade. The F1’s body, a monocoque hull made wholly of carbon fiber, was a first. Layout is rear mid-engine, rear-wheel drive, dihedral doors, with a center driving seat. A 6.1 Liter BMW S70/2 V12 produces 618 hp and 479 ft-lbs of torque through a 6-speed manual. A total of one prototype and 68 production F1 McLarens were built from 1993 to 1998. They are among the most collectible and expensive cars in the world. Cars change hands quietly amongst a niche group of owners for millions. With only 1,291 kilometers (802 miles) on the odometer, this McLaren F1 (chassis no. 053) is one of only two finished in Marlboro White. It is one of the lowest-mileage and most original examples in the world.

A racing variant, the McLaren F1 GTR was produced in 1995 for racing. The GTR was fitted with the same engine, but with modifications to satisfy racing regulations. In its debut, 5 McLaren F1 GTRs competed in the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans, bringing victories in both class and overall.

Thanks to their immense reputation, the McLaren F1 is one of the best investment supercars. In 2010 Chassis No. 062 sold above high estimate for $3,575,000. It had less than 3,500 miles. In 2014 Chassis No. 031 was offered for sale at Pebble Beach. Estimate for the 1,004-mile example was $12m to $14m. Here. A 1995 McLaren F1 Chassis No. 29 with just 243 miles on its odometer sold for a record-breaking $20.465 million at Pebble Beach Auction in 2021, obliterating its $15m high estimate. Here.
