A woman who was driving the sedan, a gold Toyota, was taken to a local hospital with minor injuries, Fox 4 reports, citing police.
It is unclear what caused the initial collision between the Toyota and the McLaren, which appears to be a 570S Coupé model and can reach speeds of more than 200 mph. The scene of the collision is about 10 miles north of Downtown Dallas.
Video and images from the harrowing scene showed the McLaren extraordinarily split in half. The mangled front part of the car is wrapped around the tree while the back half is on the road about 30 feet away.
