deadmau5's Rare 2015 McLaren P1 is Up for Auction
It's no secret that deadmau5 is a lover of exotic cars. His Nyan Cat-themed "Purrari" Ferrari 458 Spider was a fan-favorite, even though Ferrari felt differently and ordered a cease and desist to get the meme wrap removed.

Seven years and only 3,177 miles later, the self-proclaimed Goat Lord has put the beautiful McLaren P1 up for auction at the Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas event. One of only 375 such vehicles ever produced, deadmau5's 2015 P1 still holds up today as a very impressive high performance hybrid vehicle.
