Ive seen the car in real flesh in Miami some weeks ago and it didnt blow me away at all. For that money I would buy some other cars and I mean cars - you get at least a nice GT3 and on top an M3 BMW - double fun, same money, and both are looking IMO better![](http://www.rennteam.com/scripts/fckeditor/editor/../../../staticimages/graemlins/ignore.gif)
Price is the biggest problem of the McLaren IMO (next to its looks). For the same money you can either get a car that is much better looking (458 Italia) or a car that is as quick as the Mac (Porsche Turbo) for less money.
I think McLaren's price policy is very ambitous for a car that looks like the MP4-12C. Yes, it will be damn quick and yes is will be the first production car with a CF-tube this side of a Carrera GT. But on top of the (rather high IMO) base price of 200k you have to add many important and very expensive options, like some CF-gadgets, light weight rims, CCM if you want, Meridian sound system plus navi, full leather interior (!) etc. If you add all these together that will result in a final price between 230k and 240k, which is too much, even for a car with power and the CF-tube-benefit of the MP4-12C. ![Smiley](/staticimages/graemlins/tongue.gif)
