If they just gave it 50 HP more that would be a really fun car.

Sure maybe it's quicker than my 86 on the straights, but I'll catch it in the corners. Can you drift with it? McLaren owners just don't understand the driving experience. That POS probably doesn't even come with an option for manual.

I like every thing about the "Senna", except with those windows, you'll have to wear pants...
