You get the blue nose pain as part of the Fiorano handling pack. In other words suspension so hard it's impossible to drive down a rough or should I say a typical UK road. Have a look at harrysgatage on KZbin for a test of the csr

Great detailed review James, thank you. The Artura sounds like a very good car with a lot of the typical McLaren strengths, but also their slight weaknesses. The 296 is Ferrari at the top of their game, and still doing it with no steering feel and an old fashioned chassis construction. It sounds like if the 296 had decent steering feel, it would be perfection on wheels. Well done Ferrari.

I'm sorry but doing a 'track battle' video but not doing lap times feels like going to KFC and them telling you "we've run out of chicken".

Lack of lap timing seems excusable in this context given this comparison is much more concerned with the driving experience than it is with absolute performance. The track they've selected does a good job of emulating a winding backroad and there's clearly no question as to which machine brings more pace.

[@originalmianos]

Probably not quick lap times on account of not being smooth enough so losing traction on every corner.

People need to start quoting weight figures properly. Ferrari always quote their dry weight, which is1470kg so that's gna be nearly 1600kg on the road, the McLaren artura can be specced go be 1498kg on the road according to McLaren.

[@MrFsizer]

Considering the price difference I think Mclaren would be very flattered that the Artura would be compared to the 296. What Mclaren have made for a relatively low sum is remarkable.

[@psychotictactoe]

Considering the Macca is stock and the Fez has 100k extra options to make it not much quicker....ill take the Macca please.

[@srinitaaigaura]

The Artura is more of a 570 Sports series hybrid replacement than a 720S super series replacement. It's a different price and performance range. Whereas Ferrari are putting the 296GTB in a whole other category of V6. The 296GTB is clearly meant to replace the F8 with a V6. Let's see when Mclaren will bring out a V6 super series car to replace the 720S and then it will be a fairer comparison.

Mclaren a far better all rounder and better value for the money. It's better looking and doesn't have the tacky american muscle car paint job which ruins the look of the Ferrari. However I do love the Ferrari as well, they are both masterfull peices of design and superb engineering.

[@aldenconsolver3428]

I think I would go with the Ferrari, of course I would have it repainted before delivery. Maybe I am old-fashioned but that blue is terrible. But my reason for the Ferrari is not that it is faster, I have no realistic ability to use the small difference between the two. But the regenerative braking gives me the ability to support my environmental views but sometimes when the mood strikes go like a bat out of hell with a huge engine howling behind me. Soon as McLaren adds regenerative braking that will be my choice. The jet plane controls on the Ferrari are not big on my list and I think that the tires on the McLaren are better matched to its output than the Ferrari (but not totally sure of that)

[@yt_Ajay_]

This comparison feels more like the 488 vs the 570s. If McLaren is building a hybrid replacement for the 720s, I would expect it'll be closer to the SF90.

[@kubaposturzynski7137]

[@The_Notorious_CRG]

I believe that at this price range, brand loyalty likely wins over price advantage. It does for anyways! Give me the Ferrari, but minus the Assetto Fiorano package. I don't have the driving skill to really take advantage of the higher capability and I can also avoid that livery. I have yet to see a color combination that I like.

I love the nose, butresses/rear window, dihedral doors, interior, simple controls (lack of haptics), hydraulic steering, more than adequate performance and slightly more accessible price tag. Ferrari is prettier (w/o the Fiorano strped nonsense), sounds better, is faster (but would that matter in the real world?) but it's £100K more expensive. It would be easier to re-enact the Persuaders, has more 'heritage' etc. Heart says Ferrari. Head says McLaren. If you could afford either it would be a nice problem to have! 🤘🏻

I would rather the driving position in the McLaren as not a lot on the steering wheel. Obviously the Ferrari's faster but how many are going to race it. Plus the McLaren spider's has had a power increase now and does look quite Nice. Better than the Ferrari convertible. I would choose the McLaren Artura Spider. But living in England i would perhaps go for the Ferrari 296 GTB but needs the right colour and spec. If i was worrying a bit about the money i would buy the McLaren.

[@JV8901]

[@Eltern10]

Ferrari 296 GTB is my clear favorite. It has the better interior, the better engines and also more prestige than the british opponent. However, I love the exterior design of the Mclaren, that's where the Ferrari disappoints me a bit. Pricewise the Mclaren is much more attractive than the Ferrari, especially in my country Austria where there is no tax despite VAT on the McLaren, but 28% on the Ferrari. So here in Austria I would go for the McLaren despite preferring the Ferrari (we actually have an SF90 Spider being delivered this month).

[@Angelbonilla1982]

The title of the video says "Track Battle", it is not. It's a nice track review, indeed... but no lap times. IMHO it's not a fair comparison, since the price difference of both cars is almost $100K.

[@speedlife301]

When an engine lacks tq and midrange it needs electric motors and anti lag . Why displacement is nice. Nice cars though !!
