Amazing breakdown of the car and great comparison in regard with other supercars. Really good for all who don’t know the differences between McLarens top models.
something about the proportions of that car is off, the nose is so thick in a vertical sense its "tall", if it wasnt for that issue I'd love this car but everytime I see the GT my eyes just notice some weird shape of its nose
Just upgraded all four corners of my 720s to the 765LT accumulators, lines and software. Astonishing difference in ride quality between comfort, sport and track. Highly recommend that upgrade. Wasn't cheap though.
Thanks for the comment! Yes, it makes a difference and they are supposed to be far longer lasting. Not cheap for sure, but also not a price that should dissuade someone from getting the car.
Huracan I know the gt3 is nice and all but what only thing it has on the huracan is handling and that’s only on the base model the sto would put that to sleep in everything 😭😂
Agreed! The 296GTB seemed to take a lot of cues from the Ferrari 308, but missed the mark on transferring the cool 80's vibes and mixed it with a front interpretation that is just... not beautiful. Nor is it brutishly masculine. Nor has it grown on customers like the BMW G80 front grill. It's still a lot of performance in a small package, but values will keep adjusting and we wouldn't be surprised if values fall below that of the Ferrari F8 even though the 296GTB and GTS are newer with higher base MSRP.
@@zix_zix_zixI’m with you as well. I often hear that pics don’t do a car justice but it’s never more true than in the case of the 296. And the fact that it drives so much better than F8/488/458 is the best part
My close friend has the 720s, and used to have a couple supercars before. According to him it's a hit or miss with supercars, most problem that occur with the 720s due to not driving it, not plug in and battery dies which cause electrical issues, or tune it to the point there's no safety net and destroy the engine, low on oil etc.
Thanks for commenting. That can be very true. We had a customer with a 45k mile 720S that he drove routinely between SF and LA that he serviced with our technicians. Car was great until he hit a large rock that cracked the carbon fiber tub, but that's less on McLaren and more on life. On the other hand, we have heard horror stories of cars with gremlins that just do not get resolved.
