Cliff notes: MP4-12C crashes on Aurora.

 

Already?! Geeeeeezzzzzzz.......

 

Hey! What happens in Seattle stays in Seattle, including the freakin' rain...

 

Agreed. I just read this morning that its been 40 days since our last official..(is there such a thing?) "sunny" day here. Don't know why I'm bothering to wash my car these days...it only stays clean for about 10 hrs.

About the McLaren....are they even available for purchase in the US yet? Wonder what the story is behind this one.

 

not out yet...probably a factory demo making it's rounds to dealerships...what a total pin head for wrecking the car...I'd have his insurance pay for it the idiot...

 

That looks like the exact same photos Jason posted in the spotted thread....

 

this is worldwide on jalopnik a few days ago

my guess is loose lug nuts

 

Rumor on the street is that the driver simply spun the car and slammed the curb, thus busted the wheel.

 

That being the case I would guess it would be pretty easy to do with the cold temperatures and wet streets we've been enjoying combined with what probably were new unbroken in summer performance tires. I've seen it happen several times before.

Just this morning with near freezing temperatures my Continental Extreme Contact DW's lost traction in a corner. Drew my bag up a notch.

 

^^^even more of a reason the pin head should have been more responsible.....what a Loser....

 

I think the car's ok now. Drove past me yesterday in Seattle.
