This $209,000 Convertible Is Your Next Step After a Porsche 911
With its 570S Spider, the British racing brand has an offering that combines performance, looks, and comfort—aimed straight at Porsche drivers hoping to make the leap to the next level of sports car.
On the rarefied shores of Monterey Bay during Pebble Beach car week, it takes a lot to get noticed. Leave your modern-day Mercedes and BMW at home, smooth as they may be.
One thing that will get attention is the latest car from McLaren, the 570S Spider. I know because when I drove it on a certain curve along Monterey’s Laureles Grade last week, a group of fanboys gathered to shoot it as I passed by—and when I got out to photograph the car myself, they swarmed it like bees to honey.
