First Look: 2011 McLaren MP4-12C - The Really Big Mac
2011 McLaren MP4-12C - 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show Coverage, New Car Reviews, Concept Cars - Automobile Magazine
McLaren's $200,000, 200-mph reentry vehicle.

Cockpit furnishings feature a narrow touch screen at the top of the center console, a small-diameter steering wheel, and a reconfigurable electronic display in the compact instrument binnacle. Steering-column stalks that command the trip computer and cruise control are custom aluminum castings. An integrated pair of shift paddles rock about a central steering-column pivot point. Instead of using the mouse-and-menu approach or multiple buttons to command important systems, one knob manages chassis variables and another changes powertrain settings. Climate controls are located on the door panels.
