If the fact that Jay Leno was recently invited to drive the all-electric and open top versions of the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG as well as the 2012 VW Beetle hasn’t already made you green with envy, maybe this will: not taking into consideration the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren he owns, the host of The Tonight Show has just acquired his second McLaren model after the F1.
Leno’s latest toy is the British firm’s newest creation, the MP412-C – you know, the car that beat the Bugatti Veyron and the Ferrari 458 Italia in the hands of The Stig in Top Gear’s famous Power Lap.
The self-confessed petrolhead shared his buying experience on film. As you can see for yourself in the video, McLaren’s people were more than helpful as they even advised him [sic…] to avoid certain options like ceramic brakes if he didn’t plan on using the MP4-12C on the race track.
