We’re all car guys have fun, and what a warranty cost is so far from the topic. People spend 200k-400k on cars and have issues what things cost for these cars?? By the way my oil and break flush with some other items was cheaper on my 675LT than the RS if that matters.

Nice stable there Maverick! Planning to add the 765LT? Agree on the 675LT and the pops / crackles are intoxicating.

No, I’m good with the 675LT more than enough car for me, and 765LT will be wicked more than I need.

Correct, they officially announced the cut to 249 but kept the second cut to 149 quiet.

Add me to being a happy McLaren 570S owner. Wish I had kept the car and after driving my RS for a year, I realize the 570S is a better fit for me as I don't take the RS on the track (have a much cheaper car for that). While the RS has had zero issues, the 570S had just one which is if I get into the car and press the easy entry stalk immediately, it wouldn't work, had to wait a few seconds for the car's electronics to wake up first. So I just use the memory button to move the seat back as a work around.

Isn't the Elva suppose to be a driver's car and not a garage queen? Then who among us want to drive around w/o a windshield and with goggles? I for one don't trust the air curtain if a much taller vehicle drops a piece of 2x4 or a ladder from up high w/ the ultra low Elva following.
