I like this better:

But a shiny new McLaren would also look good in my driveway.

There's also plans to release a further 2 new models over the next 5 years. A £60k  'entry' model to compete with the 911 and a top of the range £300k+ supercar model.
The powers that be are looking to build up a range rather than focus on a single model or dubious collaborations.

Ron Dennis is the man.

Looks a bit like a mix of Gallardo and F430, but then seeing it next to the F1 it makes more sense.  Nice car.

agreed, although the F1 is still sexier :D
