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.

Could not agree more this has pretty much summed up my view of them. I love the cars loved the styling lord knows I liked the 12C was modifiable.
But when I tried to work a deal to get a 650 trade my m4+ raptor and cash and finance 190k. I was sooooo glad I didn't take the rate they offered lol. Not but a few months later the guy who bought it had traded it back in with 3k miles and was on their lot for like 220 or something, and with how much I drive I would have literally been 20-30k upside down within 3 months. Let alone a few years. Glad I stayed away from McLaren.
