Whether that's the cause if the vibration is another matter...

I think they're referring to this:

The 570LT version will be a 6xxLT (my McLaren dealer said 600LT but who knows). Will definitely be a 6xx series though. Most assume it will not have the suspension and active aero of the super series to keep the gap between sports and super series. Should be available in 2019. 720 has to have spider before LT so spider 19 and LT 21?
I have a LOT of interest in a 600LT and would have my name on a list but dealer doesn't have one!!
