    Re: Jay Leno and his SLR McLaren

    True, but the hype should come because of the car and its capabilities and not because of marketing!

    If it does the later it will sooner or later lead to desinterest or dissapointment!

    My 02 cents!

    Re: Jay Leno and his SLR McLaren

    I've seen an interview with Leno before. He owns no Ferraris. He doesn't like them because they've always tried to charge him a premium soley based on the fact he is a very wealthy celebrity.

    Interesting. It does not surprise me a bit. Leno is not in the "exclusive" scene as far as cars are concerned - he loves to drive all his cars and he does not pamper them as garage queens - I heard him saying that more than once.
