The First McLaren Senna for North America Has Arrived
Michael Fux in New York City has taken delivery of the first North American McLaren Senna.
Sporting a full visual carbon fiber body, the Senna has received bespoke content from McLaren Special Operations, including a custom emerald green tint known as “Fux Green.” According to the British automaker, the full body set is comprised of 67 parts and takes almost 1,000 hours to produce. Further accenting the exterior of the car are blue and red wheel center lock nuts and ball polished wheels.
The body color theme is carried into the cabin, with “Fux Green” tinted carbon in gloss finish, contrasted by bright white leather accents on the seats, door uppers, and steering wheel. Contrast stitching on the seats and steering wheel has been done in green. Carbon black Alcantara can also be seen throughout the cabin, including the headliner, while the door struts and rear-view mirror have been painted green.
