1995 McLaren F1 auctioned for record price of $20 million

The car comes with all the original parts and accessories. This includes a FACOM tool chest, titanium toolkit, custom luggage set, original owner's manual and service book and a special Tag Heuer watch.

Back in June this year, the Gooding & Co auction house had listed a 1995 McLaren F1 supercar for sale. The ultra-rare version of the iconic supercar had only 243-miles on the odometer and came finished in a special 'Creighton Brown' paint scheme.

This pristinely maintained supercar was sold on Friday at Pebble Beach, for a staggering US$ 20,465,000 - making it the most-expensive road-going McLaren F1 to date.

The previous record amount for a stock McLaren F1 stood at US$ 15.62 million, back in 2017. Although, there was also a street-legal McLaren F1 that was converted to LM specifications which sold for US$ 19.8 million in 2019.

As mentioned before, the 1995 McLaren F1 supercar is the only model to feature the 'Creighton Brown' paint scheme, combined with a Light Tan & Dark Brown leather upholstery.

The car comes with all the original parts and accessories. This includes a FACOM tool chest, titanium toolkit, custom luggage set, original owner's manual and service book and a special Tag Heuer watch.

With an odometer reading of under 400 km, the car is also one of the lowest mileage F1's in the world. It also comes with the original factory-fitted Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres.

The McLaren F1 was limited to just 106 units and was designed by Gordon Murray. The iconic three-seater supercar came powered by a naturally-aspirated 6.1-litre V12 producing 618 BHP and 650 Nm, paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox.
