Harry Metcalfe now a 650s owner
Discussion
As someone who has just recently bought a 650S it really did put a huge smile on my face hearing someone as knowledgeable and experienced as Harry being so effusive in his praise of these cars. Not only reviewing it positively but actually spending his own money on it, when he could own or has owned pretty much anything else out there.
Interesting that he highlighted exactly the same thing I do when asked about the performance; the 0-100 time. Not just faster than the Ferrari 458 or even a 488, but faster from 0-100 than an Enzo, an SLR, even a McLaren F1.

Indeed fun to see and hear such a respected figure fawning over his new purchase like someone with their first (super)car.
Though, as one more interested in driving than decoration, I personally think the MSO bits are
.
Full disclosure - black 650s here - zero decorative external carbon or body parts. Don’t care about resale value - will be keeping mine as the ICE convertible supercar in my varied garage for as long as it lasts.

The only MSO part that would bug me is the large logo on the door sill. That would be removed straight away........ Though, as one more interested in driving than decoration, I personally think the MSO bits are
