McLaren Sabre Mecum Auctions Monterey

 

The McLaren Sabre is considered one of the rare gems of the car industry, being the most powerful and fastest car the company has ever produced.

What makes it even more special is the fact that we only have 15 units rolling here on US roads, and that it's near impossible to see a similar model emerging soon, considering to strong push towards electrification.

Under the elegant body, we have the same powerful twin-turbo V-8 and carbon-fiber tub as in the Senna, but after some tweaks that raised its capacity from 789 to 824 horsepower, effectively raising the car’s top speed to 218 mph. This amazing job was done by McLaren Special Operations (MSO) team.

The MSO team also gave a lot of customization possibilities for the customers. Allowing them to choose the exterior and interior color schemes in addition to the cabin’s trim. Tonight’s star is chassis No. 11. Distinguishable by the grey and orange color scheme, on the exterior we have Liquid Argentum paint contrasting with glossed carbon-fiber accents, in addition to the Liquid Papaya orange pinstriping and Volcano Orange-painted brake calipers.

The interior also is very original, with an asymmetrical design, having an orange driver’s seat and a Carbon Black passenger seat finished with several MSO logos.

This particular Saber will be on sale at the Mecum Auctions during Monterey Car Week, labeled as one of the main Items on the event’s list. The car has an estimated value of more than $4.5 million as stated by the auctioneers. However, there's always a possibility to sell it for more, considering its rarity and the number of multimillionaires and billionaires attending the event.

Having the possibility to customize your cabin is a lot of fun! You can have that experience with Coverking right now. Coverking interior covers are custom-made, designed using a 3D scanning technology, to ensure a perfect fit onto your seats and dash.
