For Sale at Auction: 2015 McLaren 650S in Scottsdale, Arizona

Having already earned an outstanding victory record in Can-Am, Formula One and USAC Championship racing, McLaren finally contested the FIA World Sportscar Championship in the mid-1990s with its F1 GTR, derived from the company's first true road model, the F1. Marking the 20th Anniversary of its electrifying 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans win, McLaren Special Operations (MSO) released a limited 50-car 650S Le Mans Edition in 2015. Of them, 46 were finished in Sarthe Grey, two in yellow, one in white and this car, the only one in McLaren Orange. Additional F1 GTR-inspired enhancements include the snorkel-type roof intake, vented front fenders, F1 GTR-style wheels, Le Mans Edition badging, two-tone seating surfaces, Le Mans-branded floor mats and Interior Pack adding carbon-fiber inserts to the center stack and door panels. Other special features include an Active Rear Aero Spoiler, orange brake calipers and high-gloss carbon side air intakes. Priced new with a $362,040 MSRP, it produces 640hp and 500 ft/lbs of torque, yielding staggering performance, including 0-60 acceleration in 2.9 seconds, the quarter-mile in 10.5 seconds and 207 mph flat out. Other highlights include full factory warranty coverage (extended through January 2, 2021), fully integrated K-40 radar detector, jammer and laser detector, front vehicle-lift system, a McLaren trickle charger, clear bra paint protection, an original 650S Le Mans Edition car cover and Le Mans-branded floor mats. All mandated warranty and recall work is complete. It has 3,799 actual miles. Documentation includes the original Owner's Manuals, a clean CARFAX vehicle-history report and original Window Sticker. With its strictly limited 50-car production run, the McLaren 650S Le Mans Edition is already extremely rare at auction. As the only example produced in McLaren Orange, this bespoke "race car with a license plate" will certainly mark a true occasion for smart collectors and marque enthusiasts alike when it crosses the auction block in Scottsdale.
