Not sure if sincere or click bait.

Here's my 2 cents - drive and buy what you enjoy most, why does the internet opinion matter? The McLaren is the more exclusive of the two, certainly a weekend date/trip/track car. The 911 GT3RS is a scalpel most at home on the racetrack; better built but certainly a harsher ride.

Speedtail or bust. Kidding, unless you can swing it. Either choice makes me jealous, might as well try both.

I’m hearing more and more reports of unreliability & bad build quality of McLaren. For me it would be the Porsche, every day of the week. It’s a no brainer.

this thread is now about never_enough's neighbor's beetle.

the door handle makes it look like the butterfly's wing is clothespinned
and the leopard looks like it's about to sneeze. did it inhale some of the bitchdust?
and why is the leopard on the other side so sad?
