MacLaren is trying to sell it's name, as a premium brand like Ferrari.

Technology inside aside, the price has a built in fudge factor as MacLaren try to match Ferrari on the street as they did on track.

But whether the public will see MacLaren as equal to Ferrari has yet to be seen, we will know if MacLaren is right or too ambitious once second hand prices comes out. Who knows, they might as well do a Bentley and lost 60-70% in 3 yrs, or stay the same like Ferrari with V8s.
