Volcano Red McLaren MP4-12C in Casino Square

People will still take the Ferrari 458 over this car in most case, and this is a mistake, because supercars are very rarely taken to the extreme on the road. And we thing that McLaren really built a masterpiece, an ode to the supercar.
French supercar spotter Alex Smolik captured this video of a brand new McLaren MP4-12C in Casino Square, as he was attending Top Marques 2012.

There’s nothing special to note other than how good Volcanic red looks on the body of the British-designed vehicle. This is a typical color for the new supercar, as it captures the lines well and provides a deep shine.

We think that the 3.8-liter of the McLaren reflects an era we forgot about, in which Ferrari had 3.0-liter V12 and such. Exotics should downsize and be light once again!

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
