I saw this parked at the Malecon yesterday. Maclaren 720S. They start around $350K USD and run up to $580K depending on options. Nice beach car.....lol.

LOL! Wonder if it's a fibreglass kit over a VW chassis?

Glad you like my new car CBob.

It's difficult to get into so I think I'll trade for a Bugatti.

Where's your sense of humour on a Monday morning CBob? Obviously you looked inside... hope you didn't leave fingerprints and drool on the door.

Lol.....the first "tell" is the rims, tires and brake assemblies....probably 15K per wheel. Dual calipers and 18 inch carbon/ceramic rotors.

That went right over my head. First hubby bought a Harley... then a corvette. Riding in the corvette felt remarkably like dragging my a$$ over the road. It still only had four wheels and got you from point A to point B. Whatever works for you but, imho, your VW bug rocks. Unique.

Can't wrap my head around that expenditure either. I can only justify the cost of Birkenstocks because they last forever.

Come on now, that is not that much. The last new car I purchased in Mexico cost me 60,000.000. Think about it, there are 100 centavos per peso or about 2,000 centavos per US Dollar.

So 60,000,000 for a new car in Mexico is quite normal, when talking in Mexican centavos.

I know, I'm a fool to post this Smokealot

Purchased with ill-gotten gains, no doubt.

I saw a maclaren last summer in Sherwood Park, Alberta. The hood was up and the owner was trying to get it started.
