Verdict: 570s wins in all performance aspects, R8 wins all luxury aspects and has one of the best sounding engines in all supercars and hypercars, and 911 is in the middle with a little but of both luxury and performance.

The good folks in Britain man. They really giving Ferrari and Porsche a run for their money. That 570S is such as good buy. Can’t go wrong with the 911, though. The R8, while I love mine, for some reason, I am attracted to the 1st Gen R8 more. It just a better looking car out the box to me. Maybe I’m weird I guess.

[@caydenthompson126]

I agree with you.

[@totalpackagedetailingllc4413]

Love the McLaren performance but personally for me and looking at the overall total picture of everything offered from interior to performance I would take the Audi V10, that sound is unique too!

The Audi R8, is still my favorite of modern exotic cars. The V10 sound and experience is amazing. I don't race and/or plan to race, so that's why I would prefer it. Of course those other two cars would be the better choices if you're planing to seriously drive your modern exotic car hard. Good review. Thank you.

[@Spaceman2484]

ricky v Just want to point out that you don’t have to race to appreciate the razor sharp steering and acceleration. R8 is obviously still quite the beast though

[@seth6526]

@@chicken4967 Porsche being "more desirable" and R8 being "the best of the bunch" are opinions which you have but he clearly doesn't have and this video is old so that Porsche was probably the most up-to-date at the time.

[@FredBTs]

Virtuosiity The Porsche is not more desirable to me.. Don’t get me wrong, a beautifully engineered car but it should be because they’ve been working on basically the same design for the last 50 years. Most people could not tell which was the new 911 if you parked a 2019 next to an immaculate 1997.

I’d say it depends what kind of car you would like to have.... I can’t really picture myself crouching out of a carbon tub everyday- have no significant space for luggage (...) etc. The MacLaren in my eyes is rather a second or rather third car for the weekend. The 911 turbo I see rather as everyday super car - while the Audi is definitely “daddies fun car while mummy is driving a more reasonable and practical SUV...

Hmmm let's see, an English reviewer - reviewing an English car vs the competition; which car will be the winner...anyone care to guess? Has anyone notice that McLaren usually wins all these British based comparisons test? It has gotten downright ridiculous. Then when similar test move across the pond, results are the opposite. Either there is super bias testing, or McLaren are supplying British reviewers with juiced up press cars.
