Picking it up tonite. Having a little tiff with my salesman this am Bobby. He's trying to charge me two destination fees. Perhaps he didn't know it was already on the Monroney. But he's got a wedding coming up so I think he's trying to get me to pay for the cake. I think we can get this sorted. Their doc fee is a bit harsh already @$599.

no Alfa for you!

Delivery/Destination fees on the sticker are different than the dealer added Doc fees.

I'm paying $1,000.00 doc for my Jailbreak plus $1,500.00 over msrp. There will also be a destination fee of some kind on the sticker.

Thanks BS. We got it straightened out.

Finance lady didn't try to sell me any extra crap at closing so that was pleasant. When I bought the Mazda a few months ago that part was exhausting.

But on the drive home I realized this thing is gonna be trouble for my driver's license.

These new apps for the cell phone are pretty cool. Can see tire pressures, fluid levels and other maint stuff on the phone, as well as lock/unlock, remote start, etc. I was a generation behind on cars I guess.

Probably the most athletic SUV out there.

Lays down a faster Nurburgring time than a 2004 Ford GT.

Holy shit, for real?

**Timberridge** · 06-22-2022, 08:11 AM

Yeah, it certainly doesn't feel SUV-y from the drivers seat. Steering rack is so quick you have to really pay attention.

Some (mostly green) Porsche candy for you Porsche simps...

Damn! Happy for ya!

You’ll have to let us know what the most Italian thing about it is after a month or so of ownership.

And thanks for the P-car stoke. A green 911 is a special thing.

Thanks. Will do. So far, the delivery process was pretty Italian.

SOME green 911s are a special thing. A few of those in the screen grab are… not my cup o tea

You're not wrong.

Washington State Patrol troopers on Monday found an empty, totaled McLaren 600 LT — a sports car worth more than $200,000 — practically split in half by a guardrail on a highway near Tacoma.

The state patrol is investigating the crash on Washington State Route 512 in Pierce County but haven’t found its owner, Trooper John Dattilo told The Oregonian/OregonLive.

Whoever was driving the luxury car, which boasts nearly 600 horsepower and reaches 60 miles per hour in about three seconds, fled the crash scene. Troopers towed the vehicle away Monday night.

It’s not known if the driver was injured. Photos show the coupe wedged under a metal railing with the driver’s side gull-wing-style door open.

“This kind of crash happens all the time, where people don’t want to get in trouble so they leave the car behind,” Dattilo. “But it’s not necessarily common for it to be a $200,000 McLaren, though.”

The car hasn’t been reported stolen, and its registered owner lives in Washington, Dattilo said. The car still has dealership plates.

On Twitter, people floated theories about what happened, with some assuming the car was stolen or taken for a joyride by a valet driver.

Mystery driver, would you like your white 2020 McLaren 600 LT back? Call the Washington State Patrol at 360-596-4000.

He almost made it all the way under that guardrail.

Lol.

The guardrail really highlights the aerodynamic nature of the 600 LT.

What? For real? Huh what are the specs on that little bugger timber?

And here I was impressed by that Utica fish fry analysis, that’s going to have to wait..

**Timberridge** · 06-22-2022, 08:14 PM

Hai Aldo. 90 degree V6 with twin turbos. I'm told the little meatball has 505hp at the crank. At one point a few years ago it was the fastest SUV around the 'Ring, but I think some other SUVs have topped it now.
It's as quick as I'll ever need a vehicle to be, plus it barks and crackles if you downshift with the paddles. Maybe I'll bring it over for an oil change one day? It takes Pennzoil Euro Platinum 5w-40.
