The 600LT is very similar and in a lot of ways more familiar to someone stepping out of the GT3RS than a 675LT would be...

The suspension in the 675LT is very different and exotic.

Drove the new Ford GT 16 miles today- really impressed by the fit and finish, the ride quality, the front end grip and the lift system is LIGHTNING QUICK.

Still not going to be able ring its neck for a few weeks (600mile break in)

The 488 to earlier poster: Feels choked up a bit on top of rev range. Numb steering rack compared to the LT's.

That being said the Pista is everything I'd ever wanted when I drove it. ***** out at Laguna- I HAVE NO DOUBT they really did not hold back this time.

They need to start cranking on the Pista. I’m getting tired waiting for mine. Am told it hasn’t started building yet- likely a December delivery for me. Excited to add it to the garage and see how it compares to the 720.

For what it's worth...just took my LT out to a high speed event (600)...did 205 mph in it and it ABSOLUTELY had room for more...What an INCREDIBLE car.

I’m really excited to see what Mac brings with the 7xxLT. That should be an epic car.

720s have settled in the 275k range for an 18 with 2-3k miles. Check out Mclaren Charlotte. They seem to have a big inventory.

yes they have tons of cars, and yes my guess lots of lease returns where you pay not to drive the car like Ferrari. These cars are fun to drive I’ve put 300 miles on mine in two days. Would kill me to count miles like calories. I saw a guy who got a clean 458 with 400 miles on it a 2014 wow.

Appears better to buy vs being stuck in a 47 months lease that cost 100k, and expired warranty post 36 months. Also you can drive more than 200 miles a month.

Usually every $30/mo drops the price $1000 on 36 months so maybe $25 or so for 47? I bet that's only like $2300/mo with 5k down.

Depends. Sometimes the lease is cool because if you get in a minor accident you fix to spec and walk away at the end. If not, you can buy it out and obviously if you plan to buy it out you probably don't care about going over on mileage.

All depends on the overall lease deal, money factor, etc...
