Gordon Murray Rides Again
Man's World

The automotive design pioneer’s new supercar T.50 looks to rewrite the rulebooks with its host of groundbreaking technologies
Back in the early 1990s, British automotive engineer and designer extraordinaire, Gordon Murray rewrote the supercar rulebook with the McLaren F1. Powered by a 6.1-litre, 620-horsepower naturally aspirated BMW V12, the McLaren F1 offered intense acceleration (zero to 200kph in less than 10 seconds), and a scarcely-believable top speed of 386kph. Between 1992 and 1998, only 106 units of the F1 were built, with each costing more than $800,000 back then. These days, on the rare occasions when one comes up for sale at an auction, the price can go up to as much as $25 million.
