Default i drove a slr today!

ok, im just lieing...i thought i would post these pcitures since this car is VERY rare. at work today, r kelly came in with his 3 week old mercedes mclaren slr. its only 1 of 5 currently in the us right now. the thing was freaking amazing! it sat in fron of the valet at mall at millenia for about 3 hours or so. no one was allowed to touch it. r kelly had one of his personal drivers stand outside and watch over the car, to make sure no one touched it. sorry for the crappy pictures, it was my camera phone...

i talked to the personal driver. he was in his 50s and a really cool guy. he was driving some 12 seater luxury van for r kellys "music directors" and whatnot. but he said he makes around $25 per hour plus tips and he gets 20% of the cost to rent the van/limo/etc per hour. so yeah, he makes a lot. he said its usually a 14 hour day.

Does it matter with cars like that?
