To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time when somebody decided to take one of the three hybrid hypercar down the wire route. But is it art?
We’ve seen more than one supercar being teleported into the world of wires and then straight under the “form of art” label, but today we’re here to talk about something a bit different and it all has to do with a wire McLaren F1.
First of all, we haven’t seen any of the three hybrid hypercars that rock the go-fast world becoming a wire work. So yes, this is a first. Unfortunately, we wouldn’t rush to call it art.
From the structure that holds the thing together to the little details such as the headlights, it’s obvious that a lot of work has been put into this project.
As for the rest of the editors, they simply can’t go over the not-so-accurate lines that come together to bring the “McLaren P1” label for this contraption.
Regarless, the creature is displayed in front of the African Pride Melrose Arch Hotel in Johannesburg, South Africa.
We talked about this five years ago, with the artist having built the Raging Bull out of steel rods the thickness of a pencil. We’ve attached a few images of the wire Lamborghini in the gallery below, so you can get a complete view of the creation.

What we think about it
In fact, opinions in the autoevolution office are split. Some of us appreciate the effort. If you take a deeper look, you’ll notice the complexity of the project.From the structure that holds the thing together to the little details such as the headlights, it’s obvious that a lot of work has been put into this project.

How the McLaren dealer in the area regards the project
As for McLaren Johannesburg, the official representative of the British maker, the dealer approves of the creation, or at least this is what we understand by checking out their Twitter account.

To illustrate this, we’ll refer to the Lamborghini Countach built by British artist Benedict Radcliffe.We talked about this five years ago, with the artist having built the Raging Bull out of steel rods the thickness of a pencil.
