This 1980 McLaren M81 is arguably one of the rarest mustang’s ever made. The Mustang McLaren M81 was a prototype Fox Body Mustang equipped with a 2.3L Turbo motor that had been blueprinted, polished, deburred and reassembled by McLaren engines. It is believed that the M81 was the first SVO vehicle from Ford’s new Special Vehicle Operations Division. While 250 M81 Mustang’s has been scheduled to be produced, only 10 cars were made after the first prototype; 7 in Bittersweet Orange, 1 Black, 1 White and 2 Enduros. The exterior of the car features a Functional Heat Extracting Hood, Chin Spoiler, Active Front/Rear Brake Ducts and Wide Steel Fender Flares. The interior of the car features Recaro LS Bucket Seats, 14” Racemark Leather Steering Wheel, SCCA Approve Bolt In RollBar, Unique Stewart-Warner Instrument Panel Integrated To The Factory Dash and a Small Brass Dash Plaque. This car (production #4) offers the buyer a rare chance to own a true piece of Mustang and McLaren Automotive History. The ultimate Fox Body Mustang. 549 ACTUAL MILES.
