Maybe this is the third time I’ve written about a car. I’m a fan of cars, Top Gear, the Stig, Jeremy Clarkson, and the Hamster — you get the idea.

The McLaren MP4-12C is labelled by McLaren as an “affordable” supercar, which will retail at $225,000. Of course that’s “affordable”, for a car that can go 0-to-60 MPH in 3.4 seconds and has an exterior completely built out of carbon fiber. It’s Britain’s answer to the Ferrari 458 Italia, the best looking car in the world right now (by my standards, which are pretty high). The MP4 debuted yesterday with Formula One drivers Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button who were surrounding it. It’s a cool car by anyone’s standards, except there’s no video of it actually working. And that’s where The Stig should pop in about now…
