Ran in for some propane in Corvallis yesterday, and as I sat at a stop light, I noticed a very sleek looking car coming up along side me in my drivers side mirror. Stopping next to me, was a 2009 Benz Mclaren 722S exactly like this one...


A rediculously sick piece of engineering, I oogled like the redneck that I am, and tried to catch a glimpse of who was behind the tinted windows.

The light changed, and I was forced to leave the 'ol girl behind, our paths likely to never cross again.

Some fun facts I found:
Only 150 were released
The 605 HP V8 engine is hand built
It'll hit 0-100Km/H in 3.7 sec, with a top speed of 335Km/H (208MPH!)
AND...it'll only set you back $545,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A few more shots...

Yeah, but can you tow with it?

Bald, rich n chicks dig it...saw one in Vegas at the Palms, coolest and most obnoxious ride I have ever seen.

Personally, I would rather have a Ridgeline.

There is a guy who lives out Avondale in Redmond with one of those and a half dozen other rare supercars.
During my construction project on Avondale, every nice morning was like a car show with all the rich Microsofties stuck in traffic trying to not stall their half million dollar whips. Those Mclaren's sound insane for a V-8.

Hot Wheels toys for old rich guys.

AS we used to say in High School, it comes with a beaver scraper in the glove box.


To remove all the pussy it attracts.
