The new one looks more like some fucked up NSX prototype then it does an exotic sports car.

I really like the quarter panel area on the new one, but not a fan of the front end. Will be interesting to see in real world pictures. I agree that it does look a bit like the NSX proto-type up front.

That said, I think their goal with this car was very different than that of the original F1. This car seems much more tame... something more people can afford to own and really drive. I mean McLaren's a company... so they need to turn a profit. Uber-expensive super cars are usually halo-cars that loose money but promote the brand.

I think it's bad ass and a great alternative to whats out there in the current supercar market.
