May 2025 A couple days ago I have seen an Instagram story, showing this car parked at NH Torino Lingotto Congress hotel, I'm a big fan of the McLaren 12C and I didn't spot any in my life, as far I can remember I had seen 3 Coupés and 0 Spiders before that day so I quickly got dressed and took the first bus going to that place, while going there the same person posted another story with a white Cayman GT4, when I finally arrived at the hotel luckily this beautiful McLaren was still there, while checking the hotel's parking I have also found the Cayman and four more spotworthy Porsches (2x 718 Spyder and 2x Boxster Spyder) all from the UK and part of the same group of friends, that also included three more not spotworthy Porsches, it was for sure a lucky day for carspotting! This car has been posted only one time on AG, almost 12 years ago (July 2013) in London when it was brand new (just 2 months old), great to see it still around after many years!

Great find! The 12C is one of my favorite McLaren models, hopefully I can spot one some day too. It's also cool to see cars uploaded more than ten years after they were first spotted.

Great to see this Mclaren back on the site after all these years, beautiful spec and spot!

Hello, Giacomo. I can remember back in the day when these British lady's started appearing in my neck of the woods. All of them were either painted in white, black, or grey. All safe colors. I honestly love them dressed in a vibrant color. Excellent catch, my friend. @JACK888 Turin Spotter

@funspotter Thanks mate, it is for sure!
@TYI Thank you Tak, they are indeed!
@Carspotter_ekos Thanks Eino, it's one of my favorite McLarens too, I'm sure you'll catch one this year!
@gertjeR Always great to see cars being spotted again after many years, thank you Gerald!
@Tizz240 Grazie mille Tizz!
@CC36 I have seen them, it seems you have found some nice cars in Turin!
@ST22HTV Thanks a lot Linus, I really like the spec too!
@Horse-Power Thanks a lot West, 12Cs look much better in bright color indeed, sadly they have never been common here in Italy!

Red is quite rarely specced on a Mclaren, but despite that fact, I believe it's a color that looks phenomenal on any of their models, this 12C being no exception. The only thing I'd say is missing to complete the look on this Mclaren is the lack of carbon ceramic brakes. Anyhow, great spot, Giacomo!

@Exotics of Lithuania Thanks Gytis, the spec is almost perfect indeed and I agree about the brakes!
