1998 McLaren F1 LM – $13.75 Million
The McLaren F1 LM was built in commemoration of the five McLaren F1 GTRs that competed in the Le Mans 24 Hours race in 1995. They finished first, third, fourth, fifth, and thirteenth place. It’s the track variant of the Mclaren F1. There were 6 units of these cars made, and five of them were sold. The remaining unit was used by McLaren as a platform for further development of the F1 chassis. The F1 LM’s came in different colors, including papaya orange, which was a tribute to the famous and accomplished Formula One race driver Bruce McLaren.
It’s powered by a 6.1-liter V12 engine with an output of 680 horsepower. The car was fitted with the same engine as the 1995 GTR without the restrictor, which was race-mandated. It was tested to reach 0-60 mph in 3.9 seconds—wheelspin during the start of the test greatly, to some degree, contributed to the end result.
