Just because someone puts a McLaren badge on his G55 doesn't mean he slapped the SLR engine into it.  I thought you had some pictures of the engine bay or something.  How many Cobra symbols have I seen on V6 or GT Mustangs?  How many AMG symbols have I seen on E320s?  The list goes on and on.  I'll believe this has the McLaren engine when I see some pictures with the hood up.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 28th 2008 7:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on McLaren-powered Mercedes G-wagon spotted... guess where]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/28/mclaren-powered-mercedes-g-wagon-spotted-guess-where/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/28/mclaren-powered-mercedes-g-wagon-spotted-guess-where/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hey Sam...WATCH THE VIDEO.
