    Old railroad bridge? I would think it was a 'Rails-to-Trails' bridge but there are no side railings, so it can't be.
    Quite the color shift from the top pic, orange, to the bottom right pic, red. :cool:
    675LT - great choice! https://ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/i-want-to-buy-another-car.621257/

    I wanted to start a new 'hate free' M-c-L-a-r-e-n thread for awhile. This will do just fine. :)

    Nice pics, thankyou. I have never driven a Mac, so cannot comment on driveability, though I suspect that they are excellent in that department - McLaren are no idiots when it comes to building fast cars. I am afraid it's the looks that put me off, but then again I am not excited by current Ferraris either (Roma excepted). All a matter of personal taste - as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    I’m not sure what the bridge was for but not used now.

    volcano orange has a wide spectrum of hues. It’s pretty amazing

    the 675lt, probably one of the best production (albeit limited) to be produced in 2016.

    And, yet, no pics in the McLaren love thread. [emoji6]

    One of the first drives I took in the Cali, I pulled into a bank parking lot to take a phone call from the wife. Just so happens that there was a gent there in his new McLaren. Don't remember the model, but the color was volcano orange. Had a nice chat. It's a stunner of a color...T

    A lot of people like to complain about mclaren sound, but I have full aftermarket exhaust and cats, and the car sounds like an absolute monster. My California ( which I also love) sounds like a Tesla in comparison. Ok maybe that’s an exaggeration lol, but you get the idea. The mclaren is scary fast, the active aero is awesome, the doors are cool, all in all it’s a great car and amazing machine for the price. Forget about arguing which is better and have both! I will always have at least one mclaren and Ferrari in my stable.
