I can't wait for the Top Gear McLaren vs 458...
Tough choice!

Its really nice; but not as good looking at the 458. Infact, to me it looks a bit 'Lotus Evora-ish'.

But I love McLaren, so kudos to them!

same thing the NSX did 20 year ago, sell you a cheaper and far superior car for less

only with the McLaren you dont get the upidy snob apeal or the "racing heritage"....ferrari buyers wont be swayed from their gheyness



in the end, its a paddle shifter, so I care not at all about either

So many amazing cars for around the same price. Would make buying one so hard for anybody in the market.

McLaren doesn't have racing heritage?

I'd venture that anyone that could afford one, could afford both. For people like me who are "stretch" buyers (i.e. willing to spend a little more than comfy), the top end for me would be an SLS before options (~$200K). The thing is, I'd rather have a Cayman R, an RS5, and a TT-RS for my wife instead.
