"What's cooler than a McLaren F1 homer?" Mr.X's voice was faint and cool.
"Nothing," I managed, my once quick wit froze by the ice of Mr.X's breath.
"That's a big negative. How about McLaren's first road car...." Mr. X smiled, revealing teeth that more resembled jagged icicles rather than the enamel covered bones that most humans used to help consume fuel.
"Ummm the F1 is McLaren's first road car," I replied, focusing on the yellow eyes instead. Mr.X chuckled with out moving his mouth.
"The McLaren F1 is McLaren's second road car. This is the grand daddy, the grand pa, the grand father, the grand freaking piano," he said, his mouth remaining still. Sensing my look of fear and the puddle forming under my right pant leg he continued," Bruce McLaren was going to build road cars. This was the first, built in 1969, and was his personal car until his death shortly thereafter."
I nodded in agreement, my eyes still focused on his eyes, his icicle teeth pursed behind his lips.
"... It is the only one in the world homer, the only one ever built... Do NOT mess it up."
