I really don't get it, I understand it's a great looking car and it has aero and all that, but it's extremely underpowered.

And if your including nonproduction cars, 9s are trash, engine swapped integras run 6s and 7s constantly. And yes, it makes than 600 whp, which if you want in a track car, you can get a viper ACR, or a Corvette zr1, both in low $100ks, and both make more than 600 (viper is high 600's, Vette is mid 700's) and both are more than capable on a track, they beat gt's all the time, for 1/4 the price, and they still look incredible, and they sound a lot better than a GT. For $500k, you can get a 720s, 4 viper acrs, 4 zr1s, 6 demons, 9 hellcats, an nsx, 5 gtr r35s, 3 nismo gtr r35s, a build with easily over 3000 hp, or one Ford GT.

Yeah there's "better" cars than the GT for less money, but you can say that about anything.

That means speculators will buy this at whatever it costs regardless of if it's actually any good because they're highly unlikely to ever drive it more than a few miles here and there - a lot won't get driven at all.
      McLaren aren't pulling that trick because they don't consider this to be one of their higher level cars. The P1 and whatever will follow are their equivalent to a GT - limited run, high price.
      This is their equivalent to a Focus RS or top end Mustang. To them it's just a high trim (power) version of their normal cars and is full production.
      As for history you might want to look up a little about McLaren. Ford have a few LeMans wins with the original GT which kickstarted it all (actually a car designed and built in England - based on a Lola chassis) but nothing with the last GT and this one only got it's win in one of the weakest fields for decades.
      McLaren have had more GP podiums than hot dinners and also had a class win at LeMans back in 1995 with a real road car rather than a car designed for trophy hunting in the first place.

      Also yes - an hour which is what a P100D can take to warm before full ludicrous is available. Presumably a car with a much larger thermal mass (battery) can't take less time?
      We'll see in time but for now it's like the $35k model 3 - it still doesn't exist.
      Just remember a lot can happen in the few years difference between when Elon says something is coming and when it finally turns up - usually in a watered down state.
      For instance there are plenty of makers who could easily bring an ev supercar to market by then and a few that are already in the wings - Rimac, etc.
      Had the model 3 actually hit the 2016 and $35k targets it would have had very little competition. As it stands it costs most of an i-pace and ignoring performance figures it's nowhere near the car (sit in both for more than a few minutes and it's fairly obvious which one is both nicer and better put together - considering Jag's reputation that's not saying much for the Tesla). It's also not a Leaf/etc competitor since it's price throws it way past that market and every few months at the moment someone else is launching an ev which is either cheaper or better. Certainly if you value build quality over straight line performance numbers there are quite a few better options.
      So yes - the roadster - sounds great but so does so much from Musk.

THOSE lap times are the evidence that’s right in front of us, as they’re the only places where the two have been lapped at the same track. It’s true that they most likely weren’t raced by professional drivers, but there is absolutely no evidence proving that the Ford is a faster track car, especially when you consider that despite all of the development and corners cut for weight savings, it’s still heavier than the Mclaren.

An owner was going to let Motor Trend take his car to Laguna Seca with a professional driver, but Ford pulled the car 2 weeks before it was supposed to happen, and they didn’t allow Motor Trend to state the reason why. There’s no real evidence for the Ford being faster either.

    I have a feeling that within next year we will see upgrade to NFGT for 800hp.
