This is mostly for all the doubters who didn't believe with "the custom shot." I am a very busy man, but I have gone ahead and taken pictures of my MacLaren for you all now. Like my prior signature indicated, I own many many more exotics and simply don't have time to take custom shots of all of them. Luckily, I was testing out the MacLaren with my son, and the camera was right there, so I snapped a few custom shots. Afterall, it's really for him, not me...but I did buy it. You'll notice it has the disc wheels for more aerodynamics, etc.

Now then...I have some maintenance to do in Iowa...the State I own.

Let me know if you have any questions. :D

Yes, but the center seating position is brilliant!

With that low front bumper I guess this is the GTR version. All the better!

I'm afraid you have been cheated. Indeed, it does bare a resemblance to the McLaren F1, but what you've got there is a MacLaren. It's a chinese knockoff of the real thing. I can't belive you didn't notice the lack of an engine tho.

Also the real thing has 3 seats. You should have done your research...

I was never good at spelling. I thought everyone was asking about my MacLaren, not my McLaren. My actual McLaren F1 is in the hangar and I wasn't out there this weekend. Sorry. I'll post custom shots of that when I have a moment. I'm going to take my F40 out for a spin right now though. Custom pics to come....when I have time.

Ron Dennis has laid out very strict rules regarding the drivers - they can't drink, must shave, looks presentable, speak in complex sentences (aka Ronspeak), be well behaved, no sex before the race etc. :mrgreen:

Has your lil one agreed to all that?

awsome, don't hear the others... as far as I know the MacLaren is far more exclusive
