What should I do with $80k? My Mclaren Dilemma

Pre covid. I traded in a 720coupe for the spider.

The 720 was about 10% under msrp. On the lot car. (Certian times of year dealer may want move units to get more allocations for Hyper cars or dealer and corporate games)

I owned for 3.5 yrs. I lost about $70k. Put on 10k miles. Covid and baby prob decreased the car use by 50%. Money lost does not including. DMV/insurnace/consumables/service.

Sales tax fcks you in CA.

Post Covid. Early adopters
The 750 is msrp as I specced it myself

It’s impossible to compare pre covid excessive production to post covid/high borrowing rates

Sales tax savings is a big deal for leasing.
Accident/bad carfax is banks risk for leasing.

Mileage restriction on lease is prob not that big of a factor as you will almost always sell the lease before the term end.
