I also think the McLaren is too plain. I vote for the 599 in that price range.

To each his own....as an engineer I see the beauty well beyond the skin. Given the F1 still remains one of the greatest supercars ever designed even after a dozen + years....we will see were the 599 ends up. If I was going to spend 599 $ I would only settle for the GTO and witth that the Porsche Spyder would be a no brainer. Technologically speaking the Spyder, as well as the MP412C, is light years ahead of the 599GTO.

Pagani Zonda is not legal here in the States.
There might be ways of getting round that. There's a guy in Eastern Canada who owns a yellow Zonda C12S, and he takes it down to the southern US. Not sure if it's registered in Canada or the US, but it's registered. If you're interested, I can give you his e-mail, and you can contact him. cheers, Indy

I appreciate it but I dont need more headaches. I cant see why they dont just approve the dam car. Certainly safer than a smart car.

Did you read on their updated website about the track camera package. I think it said 3 cameras one in the car and 2 outside. Wifi link to your home. Sounds like some cool stuff.

No but sounds cool. Like I indicated...they will have it on display at a show in Orlando is about 2 weeks and I have an invitation to drive it in November. I really think I will end up with the McLaren but if I see something I dont like or cant live with I will look towards the Porsche Spyder.
