McLaren MP4-12C – Click above for high-res image gallery<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

If you read our deep dive<\/a> on the McLaren MP4-12C<\/a>, you’re thoroughly up to speed on the automaker’s latest foray into supercardom. However, something was missing. McLaren hadn’t provided the rudimentary performance figures to keep bench racers and keyboard jockeys frothing at the mouth. Until today.<\/p>\n

According to recent reports the MP4-12C is able to crack the 60 mph mark in “under three seconds” when utilizing the launch control feature on its seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Partnered with its 2,870 curb weight (there’s still some debate if that’s “dry” or fully loaded with fluids) and 600 horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque, the more telling stat is its 0-124 mph time of “under 10 seconds.” <\/p>\n

For those of you keeping track at home, the 2010 Porsche 911 Turbo<\/a> hits 60 in 3.2 seconds, the Corvette ZR1<\/a> breaks the mark at 3.5 seconds, with the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4<\/a> and Ferrari 458 Italia<\/a> coming in at 3.4 and 3.3 seconds respectively – not to mention the Nissan GT-R<\/a>‘s 3.5-second run. So, is Maranello losing sleep tonight? Not likely. But there’s officially a new player in the supercar set, and we can’t wait to get our grubby paws on it.<\/p>\n
