The wing itself isn't bad, it's just too tall.

Wait whaaaa they didn't bring MC12s to the US did they?? Suppose it was a special import.

They did bring them here. Boardwalk Ferrari/Maserati in Plano had one for some time. They wanted 1.3mil for it. Though I am curious how much they actually sold it for.

The Ferrari/Maser dealership in Redwood City, CA (across the street from "The Hanky Panky") had one as well.

I'm pretty sure that's an EDO Competition MC12, which is lighter and has 700hp.

Looks better with this spoiler IMO.

Now give it a Vitaphone paintjob and I am sold. The spoiler really needs to be a tad lower though. It's even higher than on the Fia GT cars.

I know it's not important but i think the MC12 is not road legal...

Yes. And it sounds amazing. I was walking through the +15 (an elevated corridor thing we have in downtown Calgary that connects all our big office towers so you don't have to walk outside) and I heard this noise I had never heard before, I look down and its a MC12. So I took a couple pictures from above, and then he turned a corner and stopped, turned off the car. So I took those two pictures. And then a friend or someone got into the car, he fired it up.

The sound on start up is amazing. The MC12 is up there on my favorite engine noises. Carrera GT is up there as well. Incredible.

May not like the spoiler??! It's an MC12!!! if you don't like the spoiler go kill yourself!

It's a race car made just legal enough for public roads. It wasn't designed for looks, it was designed for awesoming.

SuperStalin · September 11th, 2009, 2:35 AM

That car is so expensive it has a Porsche Cayenne acting as rear bumper.

amdforever · September 19th, 2009, 1:51 AM

You see MC12 and Enzo once in a while in Hong Kong

QFT.
Also, awesoming is the best verb ever.

My younger brother saw it in Swift Current, on some sort of car run. He has a few pics. Amazed there is one in Canada.
