sennafan is an unknown quantity at this point
Not sure about the Spider. I'm interested, but I'm now leaning towards getting a Coupe. Going to see my dealer soon.

I can dare to say that this will look better than the 458 spyder.

I think the MP4-12 Spider just might outdo the 458 Spider

I doubt it. The gear levers on the MP4-12C are annoying as hell. You have to click "twice" to change gears. Its not as smooth as the 458s' levers. With both cars top down, the music you hear from the 458 italia isn't part of the package you get from Mclaren. The Mclaren may be damn fast in acceleration, and handling; but thats about it. In terms of "braking" the MP4 may have the advantage of the airbrake, but its not necessary that I will be using that airbrake while I drive normally on the roads. I drove both the 458 and MP4-12C on the F1 track here, sad to say the MP4-12C isn't as "fun" as the 458 Italia. I can actually feel that I am the one who is driving the 458, not like the MP4. The MP4 gives me the feeling that I'm being "helped" while I drive. The traction system helping me turn and many aspects like that. Thats not the purpose of driving, let me enjoy the car rather than the car telling me what to do.
