I think people will appreciate the 650S design, but the price of both will take a dive in resale.

McLaren seems to be throwing out product with no regard for resale value. They overproduce, have super short product life cycles (around 3 years), and they don't manage quality. The net effect is massive depreciation which they themselves are actively stoking. ColdList has given them feedback that their product release pattern is screwing their customers but they don't seem to listen. I would never buy a McLaren unless they change their approach, cut production, increase warranty duration and basically behave more like Ferrari.
