Yeah - I am kind of doubtful that we will see them here as well. Might have to take a vacation then. I dont think there will be one in my garage anytime soon either!

I sent this video to a couple buddies who I thought would appreciate it. The comments I got back were:

1. Does it have an illegal rear wing too? (a Ferrari fan)
2. It has the smiley face front like the Mazda 3!

Here's a link from today's Times online with a story on the car:

This car is a technical masterpiece.
Ferrari and Lamborghini will absolutely step up their game for this.
At almost 200 lbs lighter than the F458, a one piece carbon fiber, (mono cell) tub and a twin turbo 8500 rpm redline v8, McLaren has my money !
