classic sports car for me if you got a 911 for a daily simples

I'd take the Italian, but then I'm biased. The McLaren is nice but dealer network for servicing is sparse. Much better dealer network for the Ferrari and Lamborghini.
Not sure of residuals for McLaren. Definitely strong for the Italian cats on your list - look at how well prices are holding up for the F430.
If you've never had a ferrari you've got to scratch that itch at least once but IMHO the overall ownership experience is not as pleasant as with other super cars i.e. The general reaction from joe public is more hostile overall when your sat behind the wheel of one, it always takes some of the pleasure away but I did over 30k in one so it was more or less a daily for a while and any car loses its "specialness" after a while.
The Mac build quality is getting better (the first gen cars was pretty bad), Lambo's have too many audi logos on the parts and are the most compromised in the real world out of the options you've listed.
The scud was a good shout above though and you total cost of ownership would likely be lower :thumb:
my friend has a 650S and has budgeted for circa £20k pa depreciation across 3 years. its a lovely car, but not £60k in 3 yrs lovely. he paid £180k for his with low miles.
given £145k budget i'd be trying to get something unique/special but also thats not burning money if at all poss in depreciation.
James Watts the '21yr old earning £30k a month' on PH who 'allegedly' makes a stack from Forex trading runs a Lambo so I'd avoid this make at all costs as the guy sounds to be a complete chopper. I'm not sure his 'maths' add up. Sounds like bag of a fag packet strategy :roll:
I'd take the Mac as a car, rather than the burger which he likes living the high-life :floor:
