Seems like they didn't put any tires shine on those tires.

yeah you would be grabbed by two security cards instantly if you even put a finger on those cars to touch them at SEMA. those cars had 24 hour security at SEMA. that booth had about 10 security personnel on its own.

with all those cars right there side by side, i think the McLaren definitely is one of the better looking cars in that group...

the Bugatti may be faster, but the look of the McLaren is timeless...

^ Ferrari uses Pirelli so that's maybe why they're not on display for Michelin?

Not sure why no CGT though. Would have put it in there instead of the Fisker

yeah.. they have the Ruf, but it looks like any other 911's. and i dont think its crazy enough to be put in with all those hyper-exotic sports cars.. the carrera GT woulda definitly looked better in there.

also.. how about the murci lp640?? now thats an insane car..

the CCX is also tested to be faster than the Maclaren too.

although alot of people will disagree with me, but imho i really dont like the way the maclaren looks.. never really was a fan of how the rear and side profile looks. the front i dont really mind. the interior is a different story thuogh. although outdated now, the drivers seat in the middle is definitly wicked.
