Neiman Marcus (http://www.neimanmarcus.com/christmasbook/category.jsp?itemId=cat44770736) has released its well-known Christmas Book for 2012, and wrapped up within is a holiday surprise we can cheer about. This holiday, 12 lucky (read: wealthy) gearheads will get a 2013 Neiman Marcus Edition (http://www.neimanmarcus.com/christmasbook/fantasy.jsp?cid=CBF12_O5410&cidShots=m,a,b,c&r=cat24050744&rdesc=The%20Christmas%20Book&rparams=xpage%3D71&icid=05410) McLaren MP4-12C Spider (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/07/12/mclaren-opens-up-a-bit-about-new-mp4-12c-spider/), a seemingly sunnier pick than last year's (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/11/10/neiman-marcus-moves-ten-special-edition-ferrari-ffs-in-just-50-m/) Ferrari FF (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/10/19/this-years-neiman-marcus-fantasy-car-gift-ferrari-ff/).
Your favorite people in the world will be flabbergasted to receive their Volcano Red Spider with its "stainless-steel, special-edition numbered badge" and matching McLaren luggage set. You'll also get a heartwarming glow knowing that $3,000 of the $354,000 you paid will go to Big Brothers Big Sisters (http://www.bbbs.org/site/c.9iILI3NGKhK6F/b.5962335/k.BE16/Home.htm).
"But," you might be saying, "that's $88,250 above the price of everyone else's Spider! Is the luggage worth that much of a premium?" To that we say, "Yes!" Okay, no. But also included in Neiman Marcus' package are two business-class tickets to London's Heathrow airport, two nights at the Coworth Park Hotel (http://www.coworthpark.com/) (where rooms are a minimum of $380 a night) with meals and a tour of the McLaren Technology Center. But wait, there's more! You'll also get a private VIP dinner with McLaren Chairman Ron Dennis (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/Ron+Dennis/). Wow.
Surely worth the price to someone, but for our money, we expect a platinum numbered badge. Or at least silver. Pewter?
