Inspired by the famed Gulf Oil liveries as seen on the likes of the Ford GT and Porsche 917 race cars of the ’60s and ’70s, businessman and philanthropist Miles Nadal commissioned McLaren‘s MSO Bespoke department to build him a McLaren P1 in the same hallowed colors. Sporting orange hits from the nose to the rear gull wing atop a base of blue, the car also sees Akebono carbon ceramic brakes, the front splitter, side skirts, and rear diffuser also done in orange. The interior also continues the blue and orange theme with bespoke controls and seat details. However, the P1’s hybrid powertrain producing 904 hp and 663 pound-feet of torque remain unchanged, allowing it a top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph), and a 0-100 km/h time of under three seconds.
