I was drooling over this earlier today.

 

Really love their yellow.

 

Many are selling coupe for incoming spider ... if its through a dealer usually a win - win situation

the 3 600k plus cars are all scoop cars so you can add about 50-60k to the others prices if all else is the same for that option alone

 

My dealer doesn’t care. They are not like Ferrari. I was with my salesman the other day at a car show and he even asked me if I was thinking of selling it. (No spider on order for me).

 

yes seems to be the norm ... McL seem to understand that many customer are not in for having the cars forever but are looking for new stuff frequently - the dealers make a business out of reselling these and it does not seem to be seen as very negative compared to the jumping horse cult which calls such actions blasphemy

 

that is funny.. i was just looking for 765's the other day, and there was only about 2 listed.

Orlando has one fs also, but no price, and it is also no on AT.

 

I'm keeping mine

 

what color did you get

 

I'm also keeping mine. Nothing else out there comes close (for the money) and there's nothing on the horizon that really has piqued my interest.

 

Based on recent listings, I could ask about $200K above MSRP for mine (heritage Fistral Blue, roof scoop, all exterior exposed carbon, etc.). Problem is, where do you go? Everything is so expensive right now...

As mentioned above, this car is a keeper for me. I reserved it, I spec'ed it, I bought it, and damnit I intend to drive it!

 

Exactly, where does one go? Outperforms the SF90 (except 0-60), looks better, sounds great, more visceral. That’s the only currently produced car with comparable performance. Other than that I have no idea what would come close under $2mm.

 

Keeping mine as well as adding a spider next to my coupe. Who in their right mind would sell their 765LT? There’s not a single modern car currently being made that I would buy over this thing.

 

So are people selling these to capitalize on the profit since even used they are selling for well over MSRP?

 

you can sell a car,


that, and/or to get the 765 spider.

 

Not all customers are the same or treated the same:

Mclaren the manufacture
Mclaren North America
Your local mclaren dealer

The commonly held belief is that a "flip" is buying the car and then selling it shortly afterwards. That is not the most common type of flip. The most common type of flip is receiving an allocation, selling the allocation, specing on behalf of someone who bought the allocation and then you taking delivery in a company name of the person who bought the allocation. Titling of the car can be in a company name and the internal sales system of the dealer will have the name of the person who received the allocation. This type of flip is usually done with full knowledge of the dealer. This happened on many Senna's and a few speedtails.

Many people have bought/purchased 765's or even regular production cars just to stay in line or move up in line to get P1.2 or other in demand cars. They would have bought several cars just to be able to get the limited edition cars. This is a different type of buyer then the ones who have very limited buying relatively speaking and the dealer gave them an allocation based on potential of being a future customer. The "potential" customer who sells shortly afterwards and not through the dealer will then have future implications/repercussions of doing this.

Dealers are fairly established now. If a 765 comes in then they just call all their existing customers who may want to buy the 765. They have enough customers that it will be bought without every getting listed.

Many of these cars that have little mileage and being sold quickly are also owned by dealer principles/owners and taken over the regular customer types. My dealer principle takes all the winning cars, uses them a little bit and then sells quickly.

Mclaren USA does monitor social media, listings, etc., and will blacklist the people who do sell early but then it also depends on the persons buying history and whether they "begged" into an allocation over other deserving people. Dealers will protect the multi buyers who have incurred significant losses in the past on other cars who sell early. (ie they will sell them quietly ).

I'm not seeing much cross ownership from the coupe vs. the spider. There's a few but not a whole lot. Dealers want to make two people happy (coupe and spider), vs. one person getting two. Dealers will selectively allow certain customers to get both. If you don't have a whole lot of buying history and you got the coupe and also getting the spider then it shows the type of demand or lack of it at your particular dealer. (demand is very, very different at different dealers in USA (newer dealers are easier to get an allocation)

Comments/discussions on this topic is not entirely accurate due to people posting from different jurisdictions.

it's good for Mclaren overall and outside observers to see that 765 LT"s are being listed and sold over MSRP.
