Felix McGuire (1847 – 6 April 1915) was an independent conservative Member of Parliament in New Zealand.

McGuire unsuccessfully contested the Egmont electorate in the 1887 election and 1890 election.[1]

He was elected to the Egmont electorate in a 1891 by-election after the resignation of Harry Atkinson, and represented it until the end of the 12th Parliament in 1896. He successfully contested the Hawera electorate in the 1896 general election and served until he was defeated in the 1902 general election.[2] He once again stood (unsuccessfully) for Hawera in 1905.[3]

McGuire died on 6 April 1915 at his home in the Auckland suburb of Epsom, and was buried in Waikaraka Cemetery.[4]
