Churning through McLaren"s seven-speed double-clutch gearbox to the rear wheels, that"s good for a 0-62mph of 2.9 seconds a time identical to the 675LT hard-top with 124mph reached 5.2 seconds later.

Which means the 675LT Spider remains light with a dry weight of 1,270kg, it"s some 100kg more lissom than the not-very-heavy-at-all 650S Spider, and just 40kg heavier than the 675LT Coupe. Thank extensive use of carbonfibre for the bodywork."Read the full story here
