Earlier today, McLaren->ke284 head honcho Ron Dennis stood in front of a podium and talked about how the new MP4-12C->ke3514 will set a new benchmark on the way supercars are viewed by the public. Though we've heard that line quite a few times in the past, we're not discounting Dennis proclamation because, well, it's a McLaren, and the last time they unveiled a new supercar back in 1993 - the F1 - a lot of us thought that it was the future of supercars, which, in some ways it ended up becoming.

So fast forward to earlier today and Dennis is flanked by his two stud F1 drivers, Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button for the official unveiling of the production-ready MP4-12C.

Drumrolls, please...
