I hate to say it but I miss (and prefer) the 09 TT 6MT. There's absolutely nothing wrong with the 11 TTS but after getting more some seat time it's just not the right driver's car for me.

Brief update if anyone cares?!?!? Got an offer to trade my car for a 2012 458 down in Houston. They offered me $90k in trade... I'm still working with the McLaren dealership on their offer. It got stronger, but if I can eek out a little bit more from them, I'll definitely consider pulling the trigger on that car. Only problem is, the Ferrari pulls at my heartstrings... McLaren is much much quicker than even my Porsche, but the 458 is soooooo damned sexy. Tough choice for sure!

One thing to consider...over time....the McLaren will go down in value, the Ferrari will not. The McLarens are tempting but....Ferrari

When I'm ready to sell/trade it won't be to a stealer. I wouldn't consider less than $105K.

Duly noted. I agree, but the McLaren has a wow factor to it when you stab the throttle.

I hope you get it. I can save thousands by trading on taxes, and they all want my car stock. So, I'll remove all the parts and sell them seperately so I won't really "lose" any money in trading it in. It's all perspective I guess.

lol a 458 will absolutely depreciate, not as bad as a Maca but it will. a 458 is nothing special, its not manual tranny.......

GL with the 650, my favorite drivers car out of the box

They wanted $195k... but it was rough. It's not an option for me right now, but still considering the 650S and well as an almost new 570S! I haven't made any final decisions yet though.
