[QUOTE=Damage;16869488]Even if McLaren doesn't do an even more special edition and the 620R stays a limited run, the value of the 620R will still depreciate more than the 911R IMO.[/QU
As far as depreciation goes, that follows the general trend with McLaren, but if you're looking for performance, the 620R is based on a championship winning race car.
Im sorry, but a 911R can’t do dick **** better than a 620R
and regarding scarcity, the production of the 620R will ultimately be closer to 250 total units and all the kinks of the 570 platform have been worked out
You’re 100% right just would add and keep both. Wouldn’t sell the R it’s just a different car, and not a comparative just different. Remember we got our 675’s not at MSRP(:

I've got a 911r and a 600lt...the 600 lt is a blast, the 911r is a blast, they are TOTALLY different in how they are a blast...performance wise the 600lt will walk away all day ever day...but the 911r isnt supposed to hang onto it either, it's more fun at slower speeds than the Mclaren is. Driver engagement is different in each but honestly both are incredibly engaging in their different ways. The 911r is a little more old school new school fun, and the 600lt is totally new tech fun. Would never think about subbing one for the other...

I’ve never driven the 911R, but feel similar between my 600LT and GT3RS. My 600LT is tuned to 688HP, so the difference in speed is even larger, but I still love both cars.
I own 4 Porsche : 997 RS 4.0, 991 R, 991 SPEEDSTER, and 911 ST 1972 (based on a 2.4 T and vastly improved). I sold my 991.2 GT3 RS because I don't want to keep 3 991 ! and to buy the speedster who is very expensive too.
as the 991 R and the speedster do a bit of duplication in terms of use, I say these are two different cars,
I thought that the 620R could replace the 991R to discover something else. the car is in a showroom, completely new and ready to go.
But obviously, I ask myself questions: reliability, maintenance, depreciation
I think it's good to have varieties. But how about the 765LT? I would like to think the 765LT would offer an even bigger change from your 911s.
Forget about depreciation really isn't an issue because most cars depreciate nonetheless. The only concern I would personally have is the lack of reliability on the Mclaren, because performance wise, the Mclaren will blow the Porsches away.

Agree that McLaren makes great cars. But buying one currently is like dating a super hot Playmate who is a meth addict with a jealous ex-boyfriend who used to be a UFC champion.
Cuz, its not just reliability but the sparse dealership network and the lack of off-the-shelf parts.

If the 765 ever gets below $250k I would def pick one up.
1. There's nothing the 620R can do on backroads that the 991R can not do better. 2. You can buy twice as many 620R with your 991R in 2 years.
3. If you must buy a new McLaren, then buy it. Don’t sell your 991R.
The Nile is not just a river in Egypt. 620r will run circles around a 991r. Heck a 600LT will do the same.

LOL.............recently had to have the drive shafts retightened on my GT3 RS, this is the second Porsche (recent, late model owned from new) that I've had to have the drive shafts retightened (both less than a year old), other things include roof liner falling out, tensioner pulley broke, water pump blew, exhaust valve not connected to hose - ever, in fact the spring clip was bent closed which means in this instance it couldn't have been connected by the installer and they would have known this and didn't give AF....... I could go on.
These cars are all too fast for the road, so the comparison of which is faster is almost meaningless. What matters is the driving experience at realistic road speeds.
