McLaren's Finest? // 675LT vs 600LT | SCD Driven 

As the owner of this particular 675LT I’d just like to butt in here with the whole 675LT vs 720S debate. I had a 720S and just couldn’t gel with it, it was quick but it was boring. The 675LT is very quick, although not as quick as the 720S but the power comes in a completely different way. I found the 720S to be very linear whereas the 675LT is just a punch in the nutsack every time. I also have a Senna and that’s second to the 720S in terms of real world use. I’ve never had a problem with reliability so I’m guessing the only people commenting about that are the ones who don’t own them personally but have a friend of friend which has a cousin that’s boss owns one. I’ve read this lots of times that I think it’s become folklore now. Is the 675LT a good car? Yes Is it worth £200k now? Yes for purchasing reasons, No for just stupidity on Mclarens part on bringing out another 1000 models in their line up. Would I rather spend another £100k on a Ferrari 458 Speciale? Damn skippy I would, and I did. But more of that to come later hey supercardriver!!!!

675LT, all day every day...Something special about it.

675LT will always be one of my favorite cars of all time!!! The look from every angle is perfect, and it has a big can of whoop ass stuffed in the back. It's still hard to believe that as fast as the 675 is, the 720s Trump's it in every category except looks!!! That exhaust on the 600 is just plain Sick!!! Is it a screamin V12. No it's not, but a turbo'd flatplain V8 sounds awesome. Love the video, this is why I'm Subscribed 👍👍

600lt or 675lt can't go wrong with either😫😫😫😍😍GOD DAMN THE REAR OF THESE

2 of the best specced 600 and 675s out there! Quality video Matt 👍🏼👍🏼

Love the 600lt exhaust. That's half the experience....the addictive exhausts notes and crackle. I'm old school.. I like the analogue suspension instead of the magic carpet suspension of the 675lt and 720s.

For me the most desirable 3 cars ever made were the McLaren F1, Ferrari F40 and the 675LT. I think the 675 is an astonishing car and what you said about people in the future being amazed you could have had one for £200k is spot on. Only a few weeks ago I was chatting with a mate about an F40 he was haggling over several years ago for £325k. Of all the cars you could buy now the 675 is the one that I think has reached its F40 esque turning point and will follow on as the next era defining car of a generation. IMHO. Shame there are less than 100 RHD coupes and spiders to go round. You need to be quick! Stunning video too, thanks guys. And let's not forget the 600LT is also an amazing machine. Great to see them side be side.

Phenominal video.. Stunning shots at the start.. Matt, you nailed it mate.. 600LT for me, purely based on styling!

I’ve a 570 Spider, so no way near as raw performance as theses two but plenty enough for me. Thanks for bringing the 675 LT to my attention. BTW- I’ve had Zero issues with my car, so always intrigued when people add comments like “ they are not reliable, I will never buy one”...but strangely these people apparently are prepared to waste their time looking at video reviews of said cars 🤨. It’s possible that these same people also think Skoda’s are crap too...but I can assure them that (as we are now onto our second Citigo) that is a misconception 🙄.

Cant even imagine being able to own one of these legendary cars

For me it’s the 675, for a number of reasons, it’ll always remain special being the first LT version of the new era for McLaren... it seems more raw as it was an all out speed exercise not just engineering like the 600.... if you look into true numbers they are both limited numbers and not as many as you think on the 600, a good friend has one on a similar finance deal to that which you mentioned..... my mind was already made up previous to this video, but after viewing it just cements my decision even more that the 675 is the best, most useable car McLaren have made to date 👌🏻

This 675LT in that spec is just amazingly beautiful

Yeh this 600LT is the exact type of flavor I love in a car. Everything. The shape, seats, exhausts, spoiler, body kit, diffuser, carbon brakes. It's gorgeous and has amazing performance numbers to support it ! I may have to buy one

OMG that scenery...so EPIC..Love the 600LT

Mega video Matt 👍 675LT for me, the noise!

675lt my dream car, beast car .

Thanks for making getting up on a rainy Saturday morning and not going to the gym worthwhile. Nice one lads. 😁 PS. Any chance of seeing some other content on the channel? I heard you mention once you had a two M140is on the fleet? Just a brief video into that would be a great thing. Thanks again lads. Keep the content coming please. 👍👍

Awesome that some SCD members are handing out their cars for this kind of stuff. Great video again guys. 👍

Great review. Wonderfully shot

Nice to hear of an owner using these properly, rather than certain other ‘precious’ RU-vidrs... we all know who they are. Proper.

2 AMAZING cars from McLaren but the original LIMITED SUPER series 675LT is so much better than the UNlimited SPORTS series 600LT. The banned F1 technology of active aero and hydraulic suspension makes all the difference IMHO. The 600LT looks aggressive but personally I dont find the overall styling cohesive and it looks a bit like its driven through a Halfords accessory stand whilst the 675LT just oozzes class and looks super sexy. The 675LT is a guaranteed future classic, think early low volume ferrari limited editions, in 10 years time. The 675LT spider is better than a 458 Speciale Aperta IMHO and yet half the price and has gone from £100k above list to £100k under nowadays - what an absolute bargain and these are already quickly disappearing off the market forever as those enthusiasts in the know and collectors sweep them up. Give me a 675LT spider in napier green please

Damn Bro, i am impressed. Nice review. Subscribed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😍😊

I have a 675LT and love it, it drives so well and sounds much better than you think it would for a turbo car, it’s close to a race car in its noise. Can’t quite match my GT8 for sound though 😜

Amazing cars, amazing roads, good cinematography, good presenter

Best car video I’ve seen in a while

@supercardrivers - having watched countless videos on both 675/600 LT’s it appears that the 600 exhaust doesn’t crack/pop on upshifts but just on downshifts while 675 seems to crack on both ....can you confirm this from your drives in both cars? Thanks

Nice review. I owned a 12C and 650S over 2-3 years. I also drove a 675LT for 2 days whilst filming. I found the 650S a much better road car. The 675LT is set up for track and is a lot louder and you don't notice the upgrade in power. The 675LT wins on looks though. The reason they have dropped is because McLaren have pumped out so many new models, and with the same engine in most cars. A basic 570S at £90,000 offers all the speed you'll ever need and if you go for the Spider at £110,000 you can out the roof down too!

600LT for the top mounted exhaust, easy!!!

675 for me. Its a baby P1 and I don't think theres a better compliment than that.

675lt no doubt... kinda have that soul cos came around the p1

675 still remains my dream supercar

675LT is love

When I was shopping for mine and I went with the 600 > 675. The rear exhaust is awesome and with a minor tune = faster than the stock 675. Can’t go wrong with either or though

I've heard many people say the geometry needs adjusting on the 600lt and that makes a big difference to turn in. I pressume mclaren went for a neutral toe to give it a more "stable" feeling aimed at more inexperienced drivers. Also a remap just transforms it into a beast

Great cars in nice locations.

From a Porsche GT2/3 fanatic. Honestly the 675LT is the only other car I just drool over, they look so imposing. I think it's the best looking McLaren of all of them bar the F1.

I love the video with my entire life

Man, this Forza Horizon 4 gameplay footage is great!

Great video

675 never dropped in value! It sat where it sold for very well still to this day. The guy is talking about the inflated price people were willing to pay to get one when new like the 992 gt3 rs, if someone wants one they have to pay 150k over mrsp for the privelage

Smee 150 said the 675 LT is his favorite MacLaren and I think one of his favorite cars!

I love 675lt

675 the most beautiful Mclaren ever. Way prettier than the 720

Great vid

Ace vid, Did Tony swap in the R8? What a swap if so haha!

Great comparison. 675LT is no doubt a better long term investment prospect, but the 600LT Spider is just more engaging and fun. Pick up one of the deals and enrich your life by thoroughly enjoying the car on road and track for what it is, rather than worrying about preserving future value.

Great vid, really enjoyed that! So with the 600lt on finance (30k. +800pm) does that mean it'll cost you roughly 50k to have it for 2 years?

I prefer the looks of the 675LT. And they both are great cars. But the 600LT have generated a bit more praise from journalists.

That 675 is a proper weapon.

I am just waiting for 750 LT or even 775 LT or (please santa, let it be 800 LT !). Given that 720s is only half a second slower around portimao track (portugal) than the P1, I can't imagine how awesome will the LT version of 720s will be!

675 lt all day

Both cars are impresionant and I’d give my life to have them

Anyone know the location of where the video was shot?

Fantastic

675 lt for the win !!! its a raw sounding weapon

I love the 675LT, it's stunning. I know you can't really compare the limited run 675LT to a 720S from a rarity/production POV, but when you consider the 720S runs rings around the 675LT performance wise, it's probably why the value nose dived; people put their money into the new car instead. The 720S resale value has also fallen off a cliff and you can pick one up for around £150k now, which is crazy money for a car that's 98% as quick as a P1. The problem is also, that the 675LT isn't a one off LT, there will be a "750LT" and in a few years an "800LT" until circa 2035 when ICE production dies.

675LT all day

Of course the 675 is gonna be the choice for most of us, we love these cars because we love speed and performance, so yea the 675 for me too. However the 600 def wins for more style, damn that car is fucken gorgeous!!

They both sound very similar but with a convertible and a top mounted exhaust I think that will skew your opinion when driving the 600LT like in the video

Anybody know the song playing at 10:50

675LT for sure❤️

I just don't understand why McLaren aren't thought of as special they are levels above most Lambos and ferraris they just don't bring the drama they prefer numbers.

The 675 is analogue whilst the 600 is digital ... 600 even faster round corners ...

The 675LT is simply the P1 without all the hybrid stuff, and it was really made for the joy of driving. For me, the 675LT is the one supercar to have, along with the Ferrari 458 Speciale

675LT for me please.

675LT still my fav all time car

For me the 600 wins because of the Top mounted exhaust! There are only a few other vehicles on the planet that you can get that on and one of them is the Bugatti Chiron and that’s $3 million dollars more if you can find one! Found a coupe in Orange with the roof scoop today 🤤🤤🤤🤤 I’m done!

God this is YEARS over due.smdh .........but thank you

The area of driving though :D

To me, in terms of performance, McLaren makes the best supercars.

6OOLT FTW!

Who else noticed the weave on the 600 doesn’t line up at 7:49

Great review of both cars. 600lt is begged than they 675lt though 😜

4:17 So Honest :D These cars are bikes are just getting too fast for normal roads

I also think that the 675lt is the best looking mclaren

...Unless 'LT' makes you think 'langheck,' in which case "longtail" will take you back to 917s.

McLren 675LT Spider in napier green is different gravy

Way too many 600LT's built hence the stupid finance deals to try and off load them. When will McLaren learn ! They got it spot on with the 675LT. Built an incredible car to launch the LT sub brand, throwing everything at it and over engineering the product versus the price point and selling out in 2 weeks. 600LT's will depreciate further whilst the 675LT is only ever going to appreciate long term from the £200k mark. Grab a bargain while you can because they will totally disappear off the market soon with so few available in RHD in the UK

What is the exact colour Name of the 675

It's a special caw

Call me a wimp, but my ideal McLaren would be a normally aspirated 450LT.

I think the depreciation and discounts are down to McLaren coming up with new cars every few months it seems, and their notorious unreliability.

675 for me looks much better and cooler!

Some people thawt they were a Li'el boar'n

What's half thraw'el

Is this the British D.D.E. channel?

Not a great comparison imo..the 600lt spider weighs 110 pounds more than the coupe.

675 all the time

Amazing performance and some good engineering however due to the build quality and reliability I'd have a Porsche with amazing dealer back up! 👍

How cool is that owner. Yeah boyz, rag it as much as you want! No fucks given what so ever Oooooor one of the scd crew photographed him with his mistress?

Just got a 600LT. Epic car. 675 just didn't quite do it for me.. it wasn't cohesive for me exterior and interior. Can't lose with either but the 600 won me over

765 LT all day... oh wait... 😅😑😇

675LT ALL DAY...

Sausages

why don't british people wear hats when it's cold? or even dress up properly for cold weather? but especially the hats.. it's like a "thing" not to wear them??? bizarre.. see it in all the videos. they just sit there in the rain with no umbrella or a hat.. just in a t-shirt and talk about how cold it is. i don't get it. is it like a joke?

With the 675lt and the 720S. I don;t understand the reasoning for the existence of the 600LT. 720s is a far superior vehicle than the 675LT in every way. Lot of poor bastards got burnt paying over the top money for the second hand limited 675LT thinking exclusiveness when along comes the 720S making them obsolete

The 600LT just looks way better on the exterior and better/updated tech in the interior. 🔥💪🏾

Forza horizon 4 in real life

Their value falls so fast because they are not reliable, they break very easy, when they heat up they lose engine performance very easy too, in addition to the fact that the LT versions are more fun, they are not yet at the level of Porsche, Ferrari ... Mclaren still needs walk a lot to get there !! My friend instagram.com/cardoso.collector/ has a 675LT and a P1, and although he really likes the cars he has told me several times that he is never so excited at the same level as when he is driving others cars from his collection!
