McLaren Unveils Its Latest Race-Ready 650S GT3
A preliminary look at 2016’s edition ahead of the Geneva Motor Show.
McLaren’s high-powered 650S coupe got a track-ready GT3 update back in 2014 and now the racer is back with a brand new look for 2016. Set for a debut at next month’s Geneva Motor Show, the vehicle is highlighted by a modified body design — weighing 2,733 lbs — while carrying over the biturbo 3.8-liter V8 engine and six-speed sequential gearbox of the previous design (now rated at about 500 horsepower given the restrictions of the FIA GT3 regulations).
Expect the car to compete in the likes of the Blancpain Endurance Series and the Blancpain Sprint Series after making its public debut in Geneva come March 1.
