Certainly that's one explanation. Alternatively, those who shelled out $120k+ for what they believed was the "ultimate M" could simply be expressing their frustration that their M5s are no longer "that" car. Pretty much the same as what's playing out on rennlist re the 992, but I take your point.
I think there would be some envy if this car had gotten a power bump. It didn't. So it's just normal subjective observations you get from a big audience. Par for the course.

I personally like this car's individual color and will keep it in mind for the next car. But I'm happy with my Azurite comp

I think the car looks amazing; love the matte finish but like the black calipers even more. Having said that, I feel lucky to own a regular competition package and have absolutely zero envy-hatred.

The Mclaren 720S gives the user the ability to toggle dash types.

Surprisingly given then gold'ish color, I agree--I'd be happy to take that as a daily.

Likewise, the absence of additional power eliminates any envy... plus power gains between models are usually a wash with a simple piggy/tune.

Does anyone have one on order? Curious if you were able to customize the packages and options in any way...
