How important is a nose lift on a Mclaren?

[Rock Studly]

There seems to be a general feeling in the Mclaren posts that a nose lift is essential.
I don't think they are any lower than similar Ferrari's or Lambo's but a nose lift with these brands is uncommon and hardly discussed.
What are your thoughts and would you buy a Mclaren which had everything else you wanted but without the nose lift?

Thanks for those quick responses.
There are quite a lot out there that don't have nose lifts. Are there any owners of these without lifts with real life experiences? Is it not needed or do you wish you had got one with.
