Something about getting a brand new toy; the smell, the fresh plastics, it’s like an orgasm of materialism and frankly it’s irresistible. Especially when the toy is a McLaren 675LT. You can almost smell the anticipation in those factory-sealed seats.
Even the keys are still in a wrapper!
I don’t know why the virginity of material objects has such a powerful draw, probably because I’ve been programmed by modern marketing to crave consumption. But watching this car come out of its cellophane chrysalis as a beautiful 666 horsepower butterfly is deeply satisfying.
Congratulations to Lee in Australia on his fresh new ride. Stay in school, kids.

McLaren packages the keys in thermoformed plastic? WTF, at least provide a box cutter to open this thing!
