The McLaren 12C hides a 3.8 liter twin turbo V8 engine delivering 616hp at 7,000rpm and 443lb-ft of torque between 3,000 and 7,000rpm under the bonnet. Those performance figures offer a sprint from zero to 100km/h in 3.3 seconds (3.1 seconds with corsa tires). As a result the car certainly earns supercar status. In Monaco there is no better way of making an entrance than in a supercar, especially one with doors that draw so much attention.

As the video above shows, the 12C certainly is very popular in the Principality, not just the make car fanatics but even a rather pretty French woman who was allowed to block half of the road to hand her keys to the Valet driver causing somewhat of a supercar traffic jam that included a Mercedes SLS!
