I think you could operate the above car for less than $77,564 + tax, tag, title over 3 years and 7500 miles!
$26k/yr for 2500 miles/yr? I'm assuming warranty is covered for the 3yrs? Then there's service and insurance. Yea, unless it gave happy endings after each drive, no.

$20K downstroke + $1599 / month + tax, tag, title
MRSP is $275,680 with residual at $184,705, representing ~67% of MSRP
CJ is asking $204,980 for the car at his Audi dealer (with 6,520 miles) - let’s call it $20k over the projected residual value of the car at Motorcars in Atlanta; not apples to apples because I don’t know the MSRP of the car on CJ’s lot
Edit: so it’s easy to conclude that the residual is probably inflated on the lease: a car with 6,520 miles is worth $205K (or less) today, whereas the lease will have a residual value of $185K on May 31, 2023 with 7,500 miles - good luck! Even with the inflated residual value, the lease is still a bad deal
What are planning to trade it in and replace with? A GTx of some sort based on your note above? What was the issue? Space or visibility or usability?
Issue for me is a number of things based on my personal situation but basically it comes down to TIME and USE. 1) Time to use it - Teenage kids, golf (my #1 hobby), family time vs time to drive it recreationally in the manner that this car excels at i.e track / canyons (it has a narrow application usage). 2) Narrow usage - its loud, low, attracts all kind of attention, not a cruiser, wife doesnt wants to go with me in it (that could be a plus ), I'm not dating models or on Instagram . So while its thrilling/exciting, its time. My business partner is going to take it - he's single (with girlfriend) and has better time and ability to use it. I think I'm looking at some thing to replace it that i can use more often. Dont know what but i like the concept of a manual GT3 or a manual 718 Spyder. Fun tossable, canyons etc., but can drive to work or wherever.

Love the hobbies, and see golf cart next to RS .........I get it. Hit them straight.
My dream McLaren would be a Sports Series car w/ a normally aspirated V8 of 500 HP w/ a 6 speed trans. Forgoing the turbos and the heavy twin clutch should get the car to under 3000 pounds. And at a price of $150K. Hey one can only dream....
Here's my old 570S.
3 second delta in favor of the old Mac? I don’t think so; not with equal drivers. Thanks for the good laugh.
I agree. Would have been only fair if they switched cars and did the same, after a few laps of accommodating to the new car. 3 seconds is infinity on a 1:30 track.
