When McLaren presented the P1 Concept at this year’s Paris Motor Show, it told us that its new supercar was 97 percent production ready in terms of its exterior design.

If you have been wondering what kind of changes that 3 percent represents, then you’ll be happy to know that the British carmaker answered that question during a private event in New York City that was attended and filmed by Jason Thorgalsen.

At the presentation, a McLaren spokesperson said:

“This car is a production car. This is 97 percent of the car that you will be able to order. The only thing that we will add are some vents to the bumper to get some of the warm air from the radiator coming out from the side”.

He later added that the mesh grille at the end of the P1 will also be replaced with a tighter but still see-through mesh design.

If that isn’t enough to satisfy your curiosity, we checked some of our recent spy shots of the P1 where we discovered the styling changes to the front bumper and the rear grille between the fenders that McLaren is talking about, and which you can see for yourself in the gallery that below.
