Hello from a fellow McLaren/Porsche owner here. You'll LOVE the McLaren. I went from a 570GT to an Artura. Both were rock solid ... just be sure to drive it regularly and don't let it be a "garage queen"! It needs the fluid running through it every now and then. :)

I also went from a Taycan to a McLaren, and Frozen Blue to Ludus Blue - but an Artura like @jish. I daily it and love it. It's also proven to be more reliable than my Taycan was :)

Will it be your daily driver? I love a McLaren, but to me it’s a very different kind of car compared to a Taycan. I’m curious, are you planning to use it daily, or wasn’t your Taycan a daily driver?
Will be my daily, unless it's raining or snowing.
Gonna drive it to the local skate park, Trader Joe's and the petrol station, ugh

Congratulations! Looks like a lot of fun. I might go for a McLaren or a 911 in the future. I love my CT 4S but the lure of two door sports car is always calling.

Skate Park! Your stock will go way up in my book if it’s to skate yourself. 🤙

Congrats they are fun cars. Be sure to add an exhaust as they are pretty quiet stock.

FWIW I try and freestyle about 5 miles/day with some RollerbladeTwister LEs. Not much of a grinder, but plenty of intermediate crossovers and slaloming on Hydrogen 80s

well, 3 years in and I had an overall wonderful experience with the RWD taycan
always had a sunroof on my vehicles and don't need the 4 doors any longer
feel like the OG taycan was a conservative interpretation of the 570S, and the Mc is a lightweight carbon fibre beast
went from frozen blue to Curacao blue ;)
cabin is smaller, but I'm not a long hauler
McLaren opening up a huge sales/service facility within 1 mile of me, so,
Best regards mates!
