Personally,I would have a VERY large bet on there being a 675LT Spider...

I would have thought if there was to be spider, they would just make a spider and not a coupe at all. The majority of 650 sales must be spiders

you're on Ash wink I really hope I'm wrong and that you win the bet.I deposited on a 675lt in the absolute expectation that I'd own one of 500 coupes and that would be it...

My strong,strong hunch is that the great reception afforded the sports series has slowed 650s sales further and as manufacturing priorities change for Mclaren toward the sports series they fully expect to be left with enough carbon tubs to (need to) run a limited edition 675lt spider so the tubs (which have already been made) get used up...

Like I said,I'd love to be wrong,but I fear I'm right...

Factory will tell you its 80/20 in favour of spiders
UK dealer say it more like 50/50 here

Can't see why MCL would make a spider version of a long tail?

Are the differences between that car and a standard 650S not purely cosmetic?

pretty much, wheels and roof scoop. but only 50 made, rather than 500 of the coupe 675lts.

They have one at Birmingham awaiting custome delivery.
I love the scoop but the colour, wheels and the front wheel arches grilles are not working very well aesthetically.

It looks like a big lotus exige with those tweaks.

Napier Green 675LT spotted in Eight Ash Green, Colchester on Friday Afternoon - what a sound!!!

I thought it was a 650s but when I flashed it out of the junction the driver gunned it and the exhausts looked all wrong!!! laugh

That Supercar Kids link has completed the picture for me now - once again, what a freaking noise!!!

I saw what I believed was a 675LT in a a reddish-orange colour drive past me in Sedlescombe a short while ago. It was LHD and on trade plates, driven by a very serious looking salesman. Looked and sounded amazing, very loud even on essentially tickover.

They do sound pretty amazing. My favourite is the napier green though!

I chased and caught this baby on the way home tonight, in black and on the road it looks so sinister its scary









It sits so low, according to the driver its lower than a P1. Personally if I had the means this would be on the top of my list at the moment

Maybe it's the colour that's not helping but that doesn't excite me
