Overview
The 1993 McLaren F1 (formerly known as the 1992 Labhrann E2, Labhrann F1, Labhrann GP1, McBlaren F1, McBlaren FC) is a British supercar in Driving Empire that was added to the game on September 1, 2019, during the Wayfort Era. The car was then removed around April 2020 and replaced with the 2019 Labhrann Ayrton R. When it was first released, it had a price tag of $7,000,000.
The McLaren F1 is a sports car designed and manufactured by McLaren that was produced from 1992-1998. It was the world's first production car to feature a carbon fiber chassis and a V12 engine and also had advanced aerodynamics that helped it reach a top speed of 240 mph, making it one of the fastest cars of the time. As of now, the F1 still holds the title for the fastest naturally aspirated car ever built, any vehicle that reached a top speed faster than it had to use forced induction.
In-Game Information
The F1 was initially added to the game on September 1, 2019 with a price tag of $7,000,000. However, it was later removed around April 2020, being replaced by the 2019 Labhrann Ayrton R.
Several months later, the vehicle made a return again on October 25, 2020, as one of the exclusive vehicles to be obtained in the Halloween 2020 Event for 
15,800. Not long after, on December 4, 2020, it was then integrated into car pack, known as the Evolution of Speed Car Pack with the Gordon Murray Automotive T.50 for 
1,000. Ultimately, the car pack toward obtaining the vehicle was removed on December 23, 2021, making the car unobtainable; however, bodykit customization was added to the vehicle.
On April 7, 2023, the vehicle made a return as of one of the new vehicles to be featured in the Easter 2023 Event, which included the new remesh with updated performance stats. The new model, dubbed the Labhrann E2, was also given openable doors, an active aero wing, and its previous bodykits.
The vehicle was delisted a few days before the McLaren Licensing Update and was reintroduced to the dealership as a licensed vehicle. This resulted in a different price tag, the use of the vehicle's real-life name, and a new model.
Performance
In terms of performance, it's more of a collector's car, because of its $20M price tag. It has good handling, good top speed, and good acceleration, making it a powerful all-around car in the right hands. However, its handling is quite stiff and will require different braking points in corners compared to other cars on races like Circuit.
On the big update, the F1's stock top speed was buffed from 240 mph to 260 mph, but it has later gone back to 240 mph.
Bodykits
Bodykit customizations were added to the vehicle on December 23, 2021. There were bodykits that could have been equipped on it. However, due to bugs, they no longer functioned and were removed. There are currently no bodykit options for this vehicle as of now.

Trivia
- In the off-sale section of the dealership, the car had a price tag of $5,000,000. This was increased to $17,517,310 when it returned for the Easter 2023 Event. The price increased again to $20,000,000 when it was licensed, which is the sole value of the vehicle.
- The bodykit customizations in-game were based on the High Downforce Kit (HDK), an optional add-on for the McLaren F1. The kit in real life increases the car's aerodynamic downforce by 30 percent, specifically targeting cornering performance and lateral stability.
- This kit allowed the car to reach faster lap times on a racetrack as it was able to take corners at higher speeds.
