You can get that in a Chevrolet, Dodge, or Ford. And seeing as how the SLR is dangerously close to 4000 lbs, I don't know how much hope I have for them anymore.

The McLaren F1 is still my favorite car of all time. I don't really acknowledge the SLR as being a McLaren, because it's not. A McLaren should be a lightweight, driver oriented, leading sports car. The SLR may be driver oriented, but not in the way the F1 was. And it's nowhere near as beautiful, the packaging isn't nearly as slick (in a footprint that's smaller, the F1 had room for 1 more passenger, 4 more cylinders, and a lot more cargo room....), and, I mean..... it's a Mercedes. That's not a McLaren. Their philosophies don't really see eye to eye. I need another REAL McLaren! Bring it on! And also, they should bring in the old BMW V12. That engine is still more than enough. Do a little development on it, sure, but that engine was perfect for the F1.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JD]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 9th 2008 11:57AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/09/new-mclaren-supercar-expected-for-2010/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/09/new-mclaren-supercar-expected-for-2010/</guid><description><![CDATA[V8 mid engined mini-Mac? <br><br>Where the hell do I sign up, and where do I have to go to get the money to pay for it...<br><br>if it is in the idiom of the McLaren F1, but brought down to sane-supercar prices and takes on the F430 and Gallardo's, or even R8's home turf...<br><br>The Germans and Italians had better be ready.
