Up Close with Supernova Silver McLaren P1

McLaren Newport Beach strikes again with yet another unique P1. This Supernova Silver McLaren P1 is one of the 13 examples they have delivered so far, and in our opinion one of the coolest looking. That said, if it is too “sober” for you, you can always go for colors like Tarocco Orange.

Tarocco Orange McLaren P1 differs from a normal silver car in the sense that its color has a deep metallic shine to it that looks almost textured. The real beauty of this paint finish is that in dim light it looks as if it’s a matte finish, but under the sun light it shimmers and glistens like, well, a piece of silverware!

Matte black wheels, orange brake calipers, and naked carbon fiber roof, pillars and door panels complement the exterior color on this Supernova Silver McLaren P1 and make it truly one of a kind. This color combo also brings out the exquisite details of the P1’s aero parts and make them pop.
