    I test drove one in Pebble and enjoyed it, would be a top choice for an SUV for me.

    The post got taken down, but on the Chicago car spotters Facebook page, someone got a short video of the local F1 LM exiting the edens.

    Supposedly the owner has gone after internet posts of his vehicle in the past and "removed" them. I am assuming same thing happened here.

    Why would he do that? And how can he have them removed?

    I saw a couple of these at BGC this weekend. Surprisingly attractive in the flesh.

    Love seeing that LM on the streets!

    Had this car as rental in LA for a week, does not feel like a Bentley, remove the badges and you would think you drive Infiniti or MB at best.
    RR Autobiography LWB runs circles around that thing in almost every regard.

    I don't think it was the owner himself but somebody who manages/helps with the collection.

    And I don't think he could force them to remove it, but when you run a Chicago car spotting page, and a guy with a McLaren F1 asks you to remove a post, you do it.

    I thought it was fairly luxurious but quite soft, it was boring to drive. I much prefer the Levante as far as the newest crop of SUVs go. Never had/driven a Range, really enjoyed my Cayenne as well.

    I don't get it either. It is to be expected when you're driving that vehicle or leave it parked somewhere. Warehouse is located somewhere in Chicago and also has a couple "regular" F1s in collection also.

    Have to respect the owners though, there are probably a lot of people who don't know about the car and they don't want everyone knowing about it.

    The car is currently exposed at mclaren Philadelphia. If owner is so bent on keeping things private, then the car would not be out in the open as it is now. Everyone who knows what an LM is know about it and where it is now.

    Something is not being told.
