Crap, now I'm not sure if I should just get the Enzo I ordered, or cancel that and get this. Opinions?

The McLaren is faster than the Enzo right? Looks a lot better for sure.

A handful of McLarens have been damaged in road and racing accidents, with a few having been destroyed, but Dermott hopes chassis No. 65 will be driven by its new owner. Although not before the transaction is completed.

?We don?t actually expect the purchaser to drive the car [before buying]. Either they want an F1 or they don?t,? says Dermott. ?[Once sold] we always like to see them run, but there are cars that will never turn a wheel, which makes us sad. But if that?s what the owners want to do with them that?s fine.

Thats very sad indeed... to leave a car like these sitting in a garage never to be driven is a crime against humanity!

Sho nuff. The McLaren F1 is probably the greatest car ever built in the 20th Century...at least IMHO. No to drive it would be like having full access to a ready and willing Heidi Klum and not tapping dat 'tang.

It's like caging a wild lion. These things were built to be driven really really fast.. not doomed to a 0mph life.

?We have interest from current owners. You have to understand there are several people who own more than one F1. It?s not unusual for someone to own more than one F1. One person has three.?
