Well, if it didn't say: non-transferable!

Maybe I can talk my girlfriend into going? Drive all night, then demo in the morning!

if i was in the market for a 200k super coupe i would be tempted, if only it came with a stick

Michael_Js · 08-01-2010, 01:22 PM

Well, I wrote them to ask if there was a test drive associated with the "interview". I doubt it though!

lil_chef · 08-01-2010, 03:21 PM

Michael_Js · 08-01-2010, 04:37 PM

You and me both. If I get my hands on one you better believe there will be a new video!

Michael_Js · 08-02-2010, 08:58 AM

OK, that answers that! Maybe next time then...

Response from McLaren:

Dear Mr. Gorga,

The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance will be the North American debut of the MP4-12C. We are flying a prototype over from the UK for the occasion. The event will provide exclusive access to the car, our head designer and executive team to get a preview before anyone else in North America.

As the 12C does not go on sale until summer 2011, we will not be offering test drives yet.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

All the best,

Lynne Arciero

I think Hamilton needs to be sitting on a couple of phone books.
