Default $582k McLaren 765LT Spider

Maybe this puts the C8 Z06 price in perspective... The options alone this McLaren are $150k

The two aren't even in the same atmosphere... reality is the 765LT is a hypercar... c8 z06 is a sportscar..

The Z06 is a Supercar by every measure but no it's not a Hypercar like the McLaren.

My point is that when you look at the cost of the options alone on this car it makes the Z06 price a little easier to swallow... If you watch the whole video when Doug mentions the battery charging port in the Frunk he adds that it will probably get a ton of use because most people won't even drive the car.

That is because this is a limited edition collector's car.

You should see mclaren’s 1/4 mile which even c8 zr1 wont be able to come close. Its 800 lbs lighter than zr1 will be and makes same power.

Why would you title the thread this. Not everyone will know it means $150k in options.

C8 z06 has the same crappy build quality as the C8.... NOT a supercar, just a cheap sports car!

The competition seats are awful and the car has a massive blind spot on the right side!

Sold my C8 3LT and bought an R8 spyder ..... better in every way and worth the extra price!

Get Audi here. The Z06 is a supercar by every metric despite its build quality. If the Z06 is just a sports car and the McLaren is a hypercar, what does that make the outdated R8? A hyperbole?

The Mac's build quality isn't anything to write home about.

If you think the C8 holds a candle to it design wise you're blind.

I would agree the simplicity of the 720S is better, but it's still on another planet in the looks department.
