Default Has anyone seeing a McLaren F1 around here?

So in class this dude that sits next to me was telling me that their was this guy that owned a McLaren F1 in Williamsburg and he was the same person that owns the silver with blue stripes Shelby Cobra, that black Lamborghini Gallardo, and that Red Ferrari 360 Spyder. I didn't believe him till I asked some other people and I already seen the other cars but not the McLaren F1.

the guy who compiled this list of course states that it may not be 100% and there are a few suspected owners not on it, like bill gates. makes sense if you think about it, he loves BMW's, and is obsessed with speed, so it would only make sense, but he's never been linked to ownership of one.

Default Re: Has anyone seeing a McLaren F1 around here?

my friend told me their was a list of the owners during class but we couldnt find it.


I told my other friend about it and he thought it would be Bruce Hornsby. I got a little laugh out of that since I see him all the time as long as everyone else in Williamsburg and we all know he drives a shitty gold Rav4 and wears the same chucks every day.

i'm pretty sure it's an older dude from chesapeake. he gets his drycleaning done in the same shopping center where i work......


someone once sprayed yellow spraypaint all around the sideskirts of his ferrari.... over the headlights/taillights... everything.

we asked him what he did for a living one day.. to which he replied, "i own a bank." pretty positive he was just being a dick.

the mclaren hasn't been out much, lately. it was quite a bit over the summer, though.

yea cause we went to www.mclarenautomotive.com to try to find a list of owners... Apparently he restores classic painting or some shit like that. He's trying to sell off the McLaren F1 to a museum.

Well when I saw him in his Ferrari and Cobra he looked late 40s or early 50s. I've seen his wife driving the Cobra a couple of times and she likes to wear a visor. From what I seen he drives a Gallardo a lot since I know people that have seen it a lot. I don't know much people that have seen the Spider a lot. But I've seen the Cobra like 4 or 5 times in the past year.
