i owned his car in orange for about 3 yr bought it at 3500 miles sold it at 14000 miles amazing car never had a issue . congratulations on ur car
what was the reason for you selling it?
There are definitely better colors, but this is a nice color. Anyway, the MP4-12C is the best looking McLaren by far (not including the F1 or P1). This looks better than the 650 or 720 by a longshot. The front of this car compared to newer McLarens is a devolution
@@peterjordansonthe2nd731aint gon lie it looks better than the 720 but 650 is the best looking imo
By far my favorite Mclaren of all time!
Ive been eyeing these for months and plan to purchase one in 2024. Love these way more than the 650s to be honest.
I plan to buy a 650S in the future. From what I’ve heard, they are more reliable than the first MP4-12C. I would highly recommend the 650S
loved mine! crazy how loud it is outside and quiet it is on the inside.
The value of this car is starting to rise in some countries btw . Just wanted to let you know . One of my favourite cars ever .
Good to know!
Here in the U.S, it’s dropped about another $20,000. You can find a 2012 Mclaren MP4-12C for about $70-90,000
Im looking at 1 for 85k
@@jasonruch3529 that’s very good 👌by me it’s about 95 -105
@Privileged_Slave its got 44k on the clock tho. It was sold in 2021 with 34k for 62k!!!!! Its been to ALOT of dealers and it was mainly used by heads of stealerships...they paid 62k and IMMEDIATELY listed it for 129k !!!! Banks dont do loans for cars that are older than 7 years so i imagine finding fianance is difficult. Im kinda scared tho since its been at dealerships for the last 5 or 6 years.....its got a repo under its belt as well. But its got
2014 mp4 12c Spider
Ceramic brakes
Carbon fiber interior
Carbon fiber engine covers.
Memory seats (comfort)
They said all buttons work (track mode) so im guessing the suspension is ok (accumalators)
I REALLY REALLY REALLY WANT THIS CAR
@@jasonruch3529 yikes . But yea man it really is a nice car . My dad has one , if u have ig or another platform I won’t mind showing you since ur a big enthusiast on it 🫶, I got some footage on the track too .
This right here is it !.
Congrats. Beautiful car. Did you test drive a 650 by any chance? Any thoughts on differences between the two? Thanks.
Yes! I have had a 650S. The McLaren 650s is a lot better looking in my opinion, (at least in the front end).
The technology, to the engine, and many other things are very very similar, but overall the improvements have been made in the processing speed of the infotainment, other various previous electrical issues, and things of that sort.
I would go with the McLaren 650S over the MP4 12C for sure
Thanks @@leon__feinstein for the information on the 650S. Really helpful. If I pull the trigger on one, will try to post a video. Right now I have a 2020 Aston V8 Vantage. Great car but a couple little things about it that I do not love. Will see how it goes! Thanks again for your video.
@@grundy333Ofcourse! Let me know if you have any further questions
heard these were maintenance nightmares
Yea i also heard the same thing ..i believe all McLarens are even the mighty F1
i have had one for 32 years and have never had an issue
@@juniormichelesperant6372I know someone whose had one for 4 years that hasn’t had 1 problem with it
5:12 how is that it shifts up with left pad ?
On McLarens the paddle shifters are one set. You can up shift or down shift on either side
As a 12C owner, I must admit the thing that really bothers me is the hidden cost of owning it -- 12C has a much higher chance of being sent to the body shop compared to my Gallardo and F430.
See I’m in between this and the m2 cs
I’ve been in both . I would recommend the 12c
🏎️🎁🔝
Im shopping around for a r8 or a 570s for my first supercar leaning more towards a 2nd gen r8 because of the reliability
But the 570s would be soo cool to own if I can find a good warranty package I might risk it 😅 YOLO
😅I am not the biggest fan of the McLaren 570 Lineup. Design, reliability, and bang for buck wise. I’d shoot for the Audi R8 as it is an extremely reliable and better sounding engine.
Will be worth a lot in the future as well, considering the death of the V10 lineup currently
@@leon__feinstein we’re 100% right can’t beat that v10 , slightly distracted by the McLaren doors thank you for comment. Extremely helpful.
physical dash?
Did you steal my car?
‘budget’ ?
2012 Mclaren MP4-12C’s go for as little as $70,000 and will continue to depreciate. That is a pretty big budget for a car once $200,000.
Same goes for the R8
@@leon__feinstein in the UK at least, these things are not depreciating any longer, values are definitely increasing for good examples. They bottomed out at about £65k for a scrappy one.
Bro you can get one of these in top condition in the EU for under 100k
@@leon__feinsteinprices are increasing in other countries . In my country it increased by 25 k
@@Privileged_Slavein wich countries u talking about
That model name was awful/confusing, thus we know why they changed it
Erano partiti bene con questa, poi secondo me, si sono persi e non hanno fatto più niente di interessante.
Only driving in a straight line? Meh.
Where’s your McLaren?🤨
Budget car bs
Mclaren MP4-12C’s go for about 70-90K. That’s pretty budget for a car that used to go for north of $200,000
He said budget supercar... Which it definitely is
Budget supercar, not budget car buddy 😂
@@curveofsoundno it’s not . Its value has increased in many countries . It all now depends where you are situated . In other countries it can go for 90-110 k at the moment
