McLaren is taking their time. Since there is no performance difference between coupes and spiders, people more or less just opt for the Spider once it shows up. Releasing it too soon leaves sales on the table. It makes better business sense to let people buy the coupe and then the spider, rather than just sell them the Spider.

If the car has a convincing feeling & feed-back to the driver I would be interested in the spider version, even in 2019 Smiley

McLaren have retained the hydraulic steering assist and resisted the industry-wide move to e-steering - that alone will help with the feeling part.  However Porsche in particular are, by many accounts, slowly improving their electric steering feel - curious to know whether you agree.  

Also, electrical steering is a necessity for 4-whell steering, that in turn is key to optimized track performance, I feel (with all disadvantages in terms of driving feel).
