Both look amazing and if I had to pick one I wouldn't know which one to take home.

The F1 is sort of like the Nevermind of Mclaren, I doubt they will ever make a car as good as it ever again. The fact that it was the first car to be classified as a hypercar will make it very difficult for them to surpass its status as one of the greatest cars ever produced.

I'll take the F1 even though it's probably the car that's most likely to kill you, but hey the undertaker won't be able to get that smile off your face :D

I'd take the F1 home. Even though it is 20 years old its performance by todays standards is still amazing.

The F1 is iconic but completely unpractical. It is a custom built car with a 6L engine revving ape ****e, imagine the fuel consumption and tyres you will burn.

The new one is actually a production car which you can use. Does the old one even have AC lol?

F1 > P1

F1 was way before it's time and will be an iconic car for hundreds of years still.

I love the P1 but the F1 was my dream car growing up so I have more of an attachment to it...

F1 anyday for me. I love the fact that they built the car just because they could. Not to make money. Cars of today just lost the plot to be honest.

One of the stories I heard was that when they built the car it was only going to have one seat and one of the designers said if you spending a million dollars on a car, you will like to take your friends along. So they added 2 seats behind the driver as a afterthought.
