Would you Trade your GT3 RS for a modern McLaren
This is a question I'm wrestling with.. (1st world problem, I know). Bottom line I urn for a McLaren, So bad... A lot of reasons, mainly the modern feel, technology and the Exotic Presence of the car. So much to consider being that the RS was an end game to me, and I love the car... But, in general the RS is a car, and I should be able to let go and scratch an itch, right? I can't afford both, currently.
If I were to lay out the pro's cons.
RS:
For now, an appreciating asset.
Could be a collector but will depreciate at a lower pace...
Love the car and the sound, looks, etc.
RS/CONS:
Old technology.
Bubble, so sell now?
McLaren:
Pros.
Exotic, Fast, Sexy
New, Different
Anyday driver (more daily comfort)
Doors!
Cons:
Depreciation
Not an RS
Not Special
Curious on your thoughts,

Keep the RS and it's a first world problem, not a 3rd.
If you do decide to sell that black RS, send me some details.
Hard choice but I love these cars so much that the others don't even come to mind.

McLaren is ugly. Looks as if a pet cat feel asleep on the designer's keyboard. JMO
You will regret it.

Absolutely not! Keep the RS. Mac are turbo- and depreciate quickly. Plenty of turbo cars / manufacturers to choose from. They are not / will not be as special as a NA gt car.
That being said - they are performance monsters. The new 720 sounds insane. If anything it's an add. Not replace.
At this point it's looking like they're going to have peel my 3.8 RS out of my cold dead hands.

If you feel your GT3/RS is just another car, then by all means, scratch that itch. Get the Mac and feel better for awhile, until you find another itch.
Then again, I don't give a crap what others feel or express about my GT3. It continues to keep me free of itches.
