$265,000 McLaren?

It’s the inexpensive one.

That’s so disappointing. I’d probably do the same with that sort of torque!

Man, I hate it when that happens.

And to think I was upset when someone at Walmart smashed their shopping cart into my brand new truck, and dented the door, an hour after I bought it.

Bad Idea: Putting the car in Track Mode, disabling stability and traction controls, for your first test drive.

I recall a similar incident documented in Road and Track about 15 or 20 years ago. An American received his new Maclaren F1 and promptly broke the tires free, sending it into a tree. $250K damage, after only 2 miles of driving.

Some clown whacked a Ferrari into a retaining wall somewhere in England last week also. If you’ve ever seen British roads you might wonder where someone would even try to drive a car like that. It’d be like buying a supercharged drag bike to ride around on Manhattan.

Essex police are not completely sure on the identity of the driver who was piloting the car at the time

I guess if you are rich enough to buy a McLaren, you're rich enough for the cops to not be able to identify you when you drink and drive (into a tree).

A trip down memory lane all the way back to 1983: Dennis Barnhart killed himself in a Ferrari the day his Eagle Computer went public and he scored $9 million for himself.

Hard to believe companies were being formed at a furious pace to deliver what are now almost commodities.

Stupidity should never go unrewarded. Being rich does not make you smart.
