Ferrari Daytona SP3 (42143) vs McLaren P1 (42172): which 1:8 Technic hypercar to buy

This is the cleanest case in the comparison tool because price is not the variable: the two hypercars come at the same official retail price, so you can forget about your wallet and look at two things. First, pieces: the McLaren P1 (42172) has a few more than the Ferrari Daytona SP3 (42143), which gives it a minimal edge in pieces per euro —real, but small, not the reason to decide—.

The reason to decide is the retirement date, and there is no tie there. The Ferrari Daytona has an official retirement announced for very soon; the McLaren P1 has more than a year of breathing room on sale. Translated by LastChanceBricks: if you are torn between the two and you like the Ferrari, it is not a purchase you can put off "to see if it drops" —once it sells out at the official price, what is left is the secondary market. The McLaren lets you wait for a verified deal without hurry. We do not estimate how much either of them will be "worth" afterwards; we only point out which one slips away from you first.
