I was about 12 years old when I saw my first McLaren F1. Saw, not as millions of others did from the cover of a Road & Track issue, but saw, as in hearing my father say, "Hey, what's that coming behind us?", turning around, and watching the blessed Messiah of all exotic cars pass our Mercury Sable and literally part the interstate traffic.

We were mere miles from our home in Connecticut, and I was freaking out for another 20. No, Mom, that is not a kit car! It's the fastest production car on earth...

2009 was a very special year for me: I saw 2 road McLarens and a FINA Longtail one in Tokyo. Before that... I remember another FINA Longtail in the BMW stand at the Barcelona motorshow back in 1997 or 1998. So that makes 4 out of 100. Not bad :mrgreen:

Wow! Pretty cool that he was able to just call up Herb (he has many dealership locations around Boston area) and not only check out, but go for a ride!
