If I wanted a 4 seat GT, I think I’d go for the GT Sport MC Shift. Same practicality and more rare, at a lower price. (Though no carbon brakes, no race button, quieter exhaust, etc. so does miss out on the sexy bits the 4 seat Strad has.)

No. Hang on. Who am i kidding? If I wanted a 4 seat GT of course it would be a Strad!!!
I would buy a Gransport MC-Victory. Buckets AND 4 seats! Easier to drive quickly point to point and easier to park when you get there. Superb bit of packaging.

Challenge accepted, name the venue :cool:
As Ewan was quick to point out, I win before we even leave as I have 4 adults in my car and you only have 2! But having been a passenger in your Strad (with no issue) you would win no problem.

An interesting test would be same driver in both cars. It would be very close but I do think the MC-Victory would out corner the Stradale (but lose out on the straights and the Stradale would out brake it) so it depends on the course. On a typical UK road I think the gap is even smaller and I would rather pilot the MC-Victory.

I could probably look to swap to a two seat Stradale, but would miss the 4 seats of Gransport and having two seats in what is quite a large car is a bit of head scratcher. I'm not informed but in due course I would love to drive both a Stradale and an MC Victory. The main questions being does the increase in size of the GT platform make it a less fun car on backroads and is an MC victory really worth twice that of a standard Gransport?!

Think I would prefer one of the white ones with 40k on the clock as at least I know all those moving parts have had a work out and not just sat there not moving. One for the collector maybe.

I am very fortunate to own both an MC-Stradale 2-seater and an MC-Victory. If the stars aligned and the weather played ball I would be happy to accommodate and allow you (or any forum member) a drive of them back to back. I think the answers to your questions are yes and yes but opinions will vary but at least you would know from actual experience and not others armchair expertise! PM me if of interest.

The Stradale is such a good example of how brand has such a big influence on perceived value. I see the 2-seater being very similar to the 599 GTO due to its nature of being a fezza parts bin car. Like the GTO, it's got the buckets, the superfast 2 gearbox and the same brakes (but of course missing 4 cylinders and 150 HP lol). It's obviously a poor mans 599 GTO but at the price of this car, compared to say 5-600k for a GTO, it represents such good value! The prancing horse literally adds a zero to the price.

Very interesting posts guys! This makes me think about my 4 seat Strad, no longer need the rear seats anymore. Maybe I could get Dicky to sell mine and buy the 2 seat ? Yes, still want a Strad in my fleet for all the reasons above.

I think that this one has been discussed on here previously on a different thread, but it's for sale again, this time privately

Isn’t that the one that had the red upper dash but the owner changed it to the black ? For sale for ages at that Northern Ireland car dealer Morgan Cars. Didn’t it have a dubious history as it came from Japan. Mind you I could be wrong on the Japan but as my memory isn’t like it used to be.
