Imagine reaching a Caffeine and Octane event in your brand spanking new McLaren 675LT only to come across another 675LT. In fact, you don't have to put your imagination to work on this occasion, since these images take care of that task for you.
The pair of Longtail McLarens was spotted last month at the Caffeine and Octane event - this is a gathering held on the first Sunday of each month, in the proximity of the Perimeter Mall in Georgia, Atlanta.

The cars seem more like 90 percent (rather than 100 percent) identical

At least one of these Macs is dressed in Chicane Grey, one of the standard hues offered on the LT. However, the other may have skipped this color in favor of the slightly lighter Storm Grey, one of McLaren's "Special" optional hues. Since the images, which come from Redditor ColonelAdama, can trick us thanks to the lighting, we'll stop here.

Even so, to see two of the five hundred units being built sharing the same car meet is an occurrence that can only generate giggles and other emotions of this kind.

However, as one of the owners explains on his Instagram account, the two drivers enjoyed the magnetic field effect caused by the pair of supercars.

Those of you who haven't been following Woking's efforts should know that since the Mclaren P1 production has now ended, it's safe to say the Longtail, with its 666 hp, is now the reigning McLaren supercar.

In a surprising move, the British automaker has added a second batch of 500 cars to the first lot, but we're talking about the 675LT Spider here. You know, the one that was sold out in two weeks.

In fact, the man even shared a video of the two driving together outside the event. Oh, and if you ask us, the soundtrack of the clip is the next best thing to what the twin-turbo 3.8-liter V8 could've provided if the sound system had been turned off during the drive.
