Get back to nature DIVE INTO OUR DIGITAL WORLD PAPERCITYMAG.COM $2 MILLION USED CAR R emember that old adage about a new car plummeting in value as soon as you drive it off the lot? That does not apply to supercars. McLaren Houston is selling a used McLaren P1 for more than $2 million. PaperCity's Chris Baldwin takes a spin in the 218 MPH ultra-rare ride and lets you know if the hype is real. SUSHI IN THE SKY THE ROMPER REVOLUTION The wait for some buzzed-about Houston restaurants to be can make even a DMV line manned by sloths seem like nothing. Such is the case with Roka Akor, the Jap- anese sushi concept that fi rst teased its in- tentions nearly two years ago. But its space in the 2929 Weslayan high-rise is open and turning out the dishes that prompted Travel + Leisure to call its Arizona location "The Best Sushi Restaurant in the U.S." Male rompers are defi nitely a thing — especially on social media, where nobody can stop sharing photos of the latest celeb who dares to rock one. It's reached the point where reality TV ringmaster Andy Cohen is angrily declaring that he actually started the trend more than two years ago. We look at the facts and fi ctions of a phenomenon. @jailynmarcel @theshelbyhodge @papercitymag #PCSEEN WHAT OUR EDITORS ARE UP TO, DIGITALLY.
