Inject some passion into the cars? Every review has said its a cracking drive, from what I gather? Sounds like it's pretty good....? What do you mean exactly?

I've not said otherwise, cracking drive, about 10000000 models, all seem the same. As a car fan a modern Mclaren would never be on my list. Residuals aren't the best.... for me a Lamborghini SVJ would be, its got something any modern Mclaren hasn't.

You have said they need to inject some passion into the cars. I'm wondering what exactly you mean by that, because all of the reviews from those who've driven it seem to suggest it has it in bucket-loads.

What he means is some people are Lamborghini people, some aren't.

Its getting like the Brexit forums here. Let's celebrate that we have the choice. All the latest supercars are awesome IMO, stop nit picking.

To me the 570GT is the best looking McLaren, add a Larini exhaust and its got awesome sounds too. I love Lamborghinis, but until they build a modern car for tall people they're not for me. Ferraris are great, Porsches are nice (not great, sorry), but I chose this:



Frigging awesome.

Fabulous.

While they're not for me personally, I'm glad they exist and wish them nothing but success; variety is the spice of life, after all.

I think McLaren need to be careful of releasing too many models in such a short space of time, as this could lose them exclusivity in many potential owners' eyes. Early 12Cs are already well under 100k, which is great for used buyers who might ordinarily go for an R8 V10, but some supercar buyers are a fickle bunch and will consider future residuals.

I've had my 540C about a year now and absolutely love it. Genuinely don't understand all the negativity towards the brand. The 600LT looks superb to my eyes.

I've owned a few different manufactures, and have no loyalty to any of them, but would buy another McLaren in a heartbeat. Brilliant car, and mine is the bottom of the pack. Saying that its depreciated like a stone so can't afford to

Looks wonderful! That's the A939 isn't it? Probably my favourite driving road I've ever been on. It's absolutely massive as well! Bet you had a great time!
