    Nice comparison, thanks for posting. I'll take the F1 every single time. Looks better and has a third pedal. :) Plus I love that it's naturally aspirated and powered by BMW. :)

    Same here. (I still can't get over the flywheel delete!)

    And since it's the sort of car I'd drive alone - the seating arrangement isn't couples conducive, IM0 - might as well go for the LM or an official LM clone.

    I'm not sure what you mean. The LM and F1 road car have the same 3-seat layout. The F1 GTRs converted to street use (some of which are painted Papaya orange and somewhat look like an LM) are two seaters. The passenger being to the driver's left. So you'd prefer to have the GTR so it's a couples-suitable seating?

    I'd love to see a review on the LM someday like that video. I wish McLaren would let the car be driven for that purpose at least. Same for the GT longtail street car.

    I wouldn't like the staggered seating when I'm driving with The Boss.

    In addition t the cockpit of the LM isn't as accommodating to passengers as the standard car. (It's far noisier. It has the less comfortable set up on the suspension. etc.)

    Passenger seats delete for me, then . . .
