Mclaren P1 spotted in Palo Alto, California

Details on This Mclaren P1:

  • Location
    Palo Alto, California
  • Description
    Before you ask, this is not Jay Leno's car. I saw this leave McLaren San Francisco for probably the last time. A while after it drove off, I saw it again coming down El Camino. Luckily I still had my SLR camera with me. I think this is the best shot I've ever gotten through a windshield.

2 different yellow ones in Cali. Leno owns the one he was driving but this is another yellow P1.

So do you mean that Leno doesn't own that yellow P1 he was driving, or are you saying that there are 2 yellow P1s in Cali?

Andrew, I heard there is now a blue one in Newport Beach. I'm not sure if it's at the dealer or not, but if it is at least you can get some non-legit spots.

There are already two in the bay area, so I wouldn't be surprised to see one if not more at car week.

Thanks everyone! For those of you wondering, it's actually been spotted quite often in the area this past week.

@Chase: Besides the P1 there was a 3rd gen Gallardo, a bunch of 12Cs, and a 650S Spider that was in the service garage on a lift (no good pics). You should actually come on like Tuesday; I've heard a bunch of people say that the red P1 might be in the showroom that day.

So Ferrari, last time Mclaren fired off a supercar, you took two years to not beat it. Then another 8 years later, you didn't beat it again. The F60 was due 7 years ago. Now you've abandoned Pininfarina (like Adam dumping Eve so he could masturbate instead). Where is La Ferrari? Where... is... La Ferrari?

P.S Please don't name your next car "The", might as well name it "Literally", an equal abomination to language.

I think Larry Ellison owns this car, but I don't think it was him driving.

And I don't think the passenger was a kid, probably just adjusting themselves. There was no passenger when it left the dealer.

Is that a kid in the passenger seat? If so, lucky kid! Would love to know who the owner is. Unfortunate that it's the same color as Leno's, I actually don't like yellow on this car. Still an amazing spot though!
