Interesting that they have priced the car competitively against the GT3RS ADM range.
GT3RS + ADM = 270-290
600LT + options= 270-300

My understanding of 600LT production numbers is McLaren will build XXXX 600LT coupes and then subsequently offer the same number of open top cars; correct?

I've read a lot about the car but I have not read/seen anything about brake cooling or engine/trans cooling compared to the 570's which suffer in this area, did they work on these items on the 600? I know on the AMG GTR there are no brake cooling ducts and the car really suffers on short straight tracks.

No, they will build the car for a certain time period, best understanding is 12 months, and produce as many as demand calls for while fitting them in between Senna and 720 production. No mention, officially, of Spider yet but very surprised if it doesn’t get made. So good for people who want one but not limiting production doesn’t do anything to help support prices.

In the US sadly it’s true (can’t do a corvette or other American car personally). I want an Exige Cup 430. My lotus are the only cars I miss. If Mac made a manual I would be on the list.

Take away ADM on a non WP RS and the difference in the 2 become 50-85k(215-220msrp). That's not too competitive to the RS but we'll have to see how the 600 ends up behaving on the track to determine if a good price in general.

Yea always a debate, I've had my Touring since March and can't wait to get the RS, I just feel like the Manual is just......slow now. Anything to make the car faster I say. The other thing I like about Maccas is that they put the paddles in the right place... on the steering wheel. I will never understand why Lambo Ferrari, Aston put them on the column it just doesn't make sense
