Visitors to this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed were surely not left disappointed. One of the marques taking care of that was McLaren, which brought the best it had to entertain the crowds.Earlier today we told you that two FIA Formula 1 Champions, Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton, have driven the road and race derivatives of new MP4-12C at the event,

But that was not all. We saw so much Orange and Volcano Orange so far in respects to the MP4-12C that we almost reached our limits.

This is why when McLaren displayed it in that eye-catching Volcano Red paint scheme it seemed like a breath of fresh air. An image gallery of the MP4-12C in Volcano Red is put at your disposal below this article.

We’ll remind you the 2012 McLaren MP4-12C is powered by a 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8 engine producing 592 hp at 7,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 600 Nm (443 lb-ft) between 3,000 rpm to 7,000 rpm. This amount of power propels the supercar to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.3 seconds, with a top speed clocked in at 205 mph. Pricing for the MP4-12C starts at GBP168,500 (or $231,400 in the United States).

Unfortunately, even if you have the money and the urge to make this beauty yours, we have to sadly inform you that it is already out of stock.

To be more specific, McLaren Automotive’s order books for the supercar are full for the next three years. And no matter how many tears you shed, the company has no intention of boosting production levels.

What can we say... thank you, McLaren, for rubbing this Volcano Red 12C in our noses... for nothing.
