One youtuber who does car video's recons the purchase of mclaren gives apple a backdoor to move some of its cash back into the U.S without paying tax

Yes maybe Apple would buy McLaren because of some tax loophole or whatever.

Or maybe they are interested in McLaren applied technologies which does all sort of things with data processing, vehicle simulators, advanced materials etc. Basically a lot of stuff that would be helpful if you are building your own car.

If there is any truth to the rumor that would make a lot more sense.

So the McLaren F1 cars will have their steering wheels replaced with 2 buttons, Go & Stop? However, 2 buttons is too complicated, therefore just Go

They will add self parking to McLaren cars, talk about it like they were the one that invented it first and call it magical.
