02:21 side view and a word on wheel size 04:12 rear view and weight 04:46 engine specs 05:20 frunk and key fob 05:44 trunk, like a lot how they measure things 06:58 electric tail gate operation 07:11 brake lights 07:16 interior impressions 07:26 door handles, swing door operation 08:00 interior explained 08:43 seating position 09:29 reverse camera 09:52 steering wheel 10:11 center console screen and navigation 11:17 center console storage, cup holders, glove box 12:03 engine startup and revving 12:19 *Autobahn* rolling start to 255km/h (158 mph) 14:27 acceleration in a tunnel 17:00 comments on driveability 17:46 kickdown 6th to 3rd gear auto shift 21:25 some tight corners 23:25 seating position, some comments 23:51 city driving 26:51 comments on the GT comfort aspects 30:28 more comments on GT aspects 31:41 cruise control / limiter 33:05 conclusion Why I sometimes provide these lists? When we were in the market for our Macan we did thorough research on all the options, boy were the long youtube videos super helpful. But when revisiting a specific topic it was an extreme PITA to find the related footage within a 45 minute video... Thumbs up for this video, thx for producing it. Usually in McLaren review vids it's very easy to spot extreme panel gap, panel alignment and severe interior alignment problems, but the model in this video features a rather nice build quality.

Thomas, the most refined, composed and considerate car reviewer of this time. I put you in the same spot as Alain de Cadenet and Tiff Needell, with the exception they are great racing pilots too. But you wear the gentleman's badge with pride and honor. Great job. As for the car, it's distinguished but as you commented correctly, the seats look too uncomfortable and the infotainment is too shallow to really offer that grand touring comfort. Also with touring comes luggage and a front engined GT will always offer more storage space. The Bentley Continental, BMW M8, Maserati GranTurismo, Mercedes AMG GT, Jaguar F Type ... All offer great touring performance and decent storage space with much more comfort, better infotainment (except the Maserati) and nicer fabrics available for similar prices. Not sure I would pick a McLaren to be my grand tourer. Then again, I will never be able to afford it so my opinion is not valuable except for the fact that I watch a lot of car reviews 🤷‍♂️. Happy Newyear 💫

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks so much and happy new year 🎊

Excellent review again. The first McLaren I have wanted to own. Shame I cannot afford one.

[@johncollymore1697]

Very entertaining, informative and amusing video - many thanks Thomas and Michel. Great views looking forward through windscreen, and excellent driving, as always. "No one needs a McLaren but it's somehow cool!" Yes, fun to drive for a blast, but wouldn't want this one, or own a modern McLaren! Much rather have the rare, better proportioned and faster 1994 McLaren F1...! (or if in the market for a 'modern sportscar' - an i8 Roadster?). But great Review. Happy New Year.

I think this channel is so underrated. Thomas gives you all the information about your favorite car that you would ever need to know but yet less than 1M subs. I just don't get it. Anyway, another great review.

Thx so much, keep recommending! 🤗

[@jon8687]

What a cool car. Lots to like. Be a good one to take home. Amusing video too. Thanks.

[@Bernd109]

As usual great review. :-) I checked the launch of the Nissan GT-R in your review there: it reached 250 kph at the second highway sign starting from stillstand and further back in the autobahn access lane. With the McLaren you started earlier and already rolling. So both cars should be on par. Just had to note that as I have a GT-R Premium edition in gun metallic finish :-)

[@autogefuehl]

At 3:06 either the car is fairly low or Thomas has grown in height. Kudos to Thomas to illustrate the graceful (anmutig) entry / exit procedure to and from the vehicle. Lesser reviewers simply edit these moments out of their videos as it would not be a pretty sight.

Cold road surface and summer tires on hyper car don't mix well

[@bkwchiu]

The interior looks modest for a 200k super car.

[@sportsfreundberlin]

I much prefer that over the swanky interior of an AMG Mercedes

[@derbigpr500]

What exactly is modest about real metal and real high quality leather covering literally every single surface, including those you can't see or touch?

[@bavariancarenthusiast2722]

@@derbigpr500 for a 200k it is dull, which is great for the track days - sober functionality rules there - but for a luxury GT its really boring. Why bother - compare it to a Ferrari or whatever in this class. I like the outside elegant lines though.

[@dekitesla9915]

[@markscars1069]

My main gripe with this car, is that over £200k is a lot of money to pay for an engine which you cannot see. One wonders whether McLaren are preparing us for the EV future but whatever, until then my money goes elsewhere. I like to see what I am paying for. I also wonder whether McLaren are just spinning this GT off their standard platform because they can, and the only way they can realistically call it a GT is to bury the engine under shallow luggage space. Or maybe I should just call this Cynical Sunday?

[@skagerstrom]

Kind of a fan of the 500-cars. But this feels like a design step back to the MP4-12c. It doesn't have to be agressive but... dull? The MP4-12c (except for having the crappiest name) looked like a mid-engine Megane or something. It still has a nice rear end, with those fat pipes. But from the side..? A Ferrari 360L? And yes Ferrari 360 was a VERY boring design in hindsight. :P

[@mightysquirrel7808]

This car reminds me so much like the ones you find in GTA5 wheres front from one car and back from another. This looks like F360 from the front and side mixed with some Lambo from the back.

[@alexmorgan3435]

I could never own a car that Mr Bean also drives.

[@omarbouchtarat]

I'd rather buy a Continental GT, what an amazing car!

[@marksapollo]

This is a super car made for men to persuade their wives to let them buy it.... It’s a GT car honest.. it may look like a super car but it’s really just a GT cruiser, it has room for all your shopping love..

[@clubgel]

yeah if youre over 60.

[@vika0194]

The front is akward. Like an overbite. The lights are too far back compared to the body.

[@vlad612]

I think I like the Bentley continental gt better, although it's a bit more vulgar than the McLaren. 😀

[@bobjob7611]

Imagine paying 200k for a car and having to add options like the speakers..

[@vika0194]

That’s where they really make money. On extras, which are standard on regular cars under 20K. However this car comes with speakers... what he showed were the optional B&W speakers.

So much disappointed with this review that the car is not in blue.

[@autogefuehl]

[@borinvlogs]

McLarens are much cooler than Porsche or any other German cars which are so common on the road and less special/exotic. Only cars which can really compete with them are Ferrari, Lamborghini and some Aston Martin imo.

[@clubgel]

1000%. porsche's are ugly with bug headlights from beetle era, great cars technically but ugly as hell. Ive seen a black fully specced 911 turbo parked and in traffic and no-one gives it a second glance. It is only lambo, ferrari and mclaren where people stare (even people who dont have a clue about cars and are judging by the shape alone not by the brand or tech spec), even astons like the db11 don't get much of a look apart from say the DBS.

[@liam9307]

The new mid engine Corvette is a better deal beginning at around $60,000. USD.

[@icreate5529]

I have never seen Thomas so happy in such an ugly car. Must be the lovely German landscape, which is the only plus of this review. Man I miss Deutschland.

GT = Gran Turismo. This is not a GT. No place to put luggage or anything quite frankly. As Forest Gump's mama used to say, stupid is as stupid does. And sorry but that profile is awful. It's so disproportional. Man could that booty look any bigger? The rear end is huge compared to the front. EWWWWWWWW. If you want a exotic GT, go buy a front engine Ferrari, Aston Martin, Bentley. If you really want a Mclaren the 720S is awesome and the most unique design by far. But the video was entertaining. That was 250 heheheheheh, fist pump....

[@MyName-yj7nh]

My buddy had a McLaren 720s, what a piece of junk. Constant issues with reliability and quality, miserable customer service. There are a lot of choices at this price range, almost everything is a better option because McLaren doesn't care about their customers and without customer service and support, owning a supercar is a miserable experience. I'll stay with the Germans (Audi/BMW), they've always taken care of me.

[@lasttraintovegas7189]
