YouTuber Tavarish has done what many thought was impossible: he successfully built a $2.5 million McLaren P1 entirely from scratch in his workshop. This makes it the first and only P1 ever built outside of McLaren’s own factory.
According to Supercar Blondie, the project started with a bare carbon fiber tub, a collection of spare parts, and components taken from a donor McLaren 12C. Tavarish’s original plan was to have the hypercar ready for display at the SEMA trade show in just seven days. For context, McLaren’s factory takes around 800 hours and over 100 people to build one of these cars.
