McLaren 570GT vs Porsche 911 Turbo S vs Audi R8 V10 Plus | Which is best?

[@anthonyfell77]

The thing that bamboozles me is how much better these reviews are than the rubbish churned out by inarticulate, technically ignorant car vloggers. You are better but they absolutely cane you on views, likes and subs. Have you considered; 1. Introducing an annoying catchphrase. 2. Starting a feud with another Youtubular Entity. 3. Featuring endless drone footage. 4. Clickbait-ier titles, "Bird Races £450k Soopercarz!!" 5. Camo-wrapping everything. The cars, your watch, that Bird, North Wales. 6. Doubling the length of the films but halving the car content. 7. Getting a sidekick to banterise with. 8. Asking the public to vote on something. It does not matter what.

[@ID1visor]

Anthony Fell 😂👌

[@waterboy1628]

i cannot overstate the importance of #5, specifically, the bird and North Wales.

[@davepuma1537]

Totally agree. I've no idea how these vloggers have got the following they do but I suppose I'm not in their demographic (spotty teenagers presumably). There was no mention of how much f**king carbon fibre the car is fitted with or how noisy the raspy sports exhaust is. I have no interest in that or what colour wrap you want to ruin your perfectly good car with.What a welcome change.

[@grahammorgan1]

Anthony Fell classic comment!

[@ChrisWorldTV]

KZbin is a community of click bait whores who went to college to learn how to make misleading/false KZbin thumbnails and video titles with overhyped half-truths of fake danger and controversy. They make Tracy Lords look downright prudish.

[@kolokolok]

Fantastic reviewer I have to say! Was very suspicious initially thinking it might be a cheesy review but its quite the opposite! Informative, technical and very eloquent! :)

[@moneyparhar]

I will go with turbo S

[@AboveInShadow]

[@chrishammer5925]

The R8 is the only car that brought cheering shouts of happiness.... if you want a supercar, get one that makes you shout and smile out loud...

[@coreygil5898]

The 911's color is so sexy, would pick the 911 over the r8. Just like small performance cars

[@edwill1595]

Porsche all the way!!

[@M3Conv]

Great review, however the McLaren is more than slightly lighter than the Porsche, its 500Kg lighter !

[@goguhu]

991.2 Turbo S 3682lb -> 1670kg 570GT 3200lb -> 1451kg Looks to be 200kg not 500kg ... you're off by a factor of 2.5x ...

[@trey54321GO]

Great review. And I respect your findings and opinion. It should be said the McLaren is the choice for "driving" but not necessarily for "owning". Other reviewers talk about how horrible the electronics are on the 570S/GT. 2 reviews said the car didn't recognize the key and wouldn't start. Another said the car locked him out. That kind of stuff grows tiresome during ownership. And I have a friend who has an R8 and has to have the transmission nearly rebuilt ever 5k miles. That's insane. The Porsche Turbo has worked all those kinds of kinks out already and still is only slightly less fun to drive/exciting and still runs as fast as those two and many others. And yet it is polished enough in every way to live with every day. Maybe in time the others get there, but the Porsche is already there.

[@andrewnorris5415]

That's from the net. My cousin has an R8 and the bills are massive. He's had things go wrong with it that costs many thousands.

[@andrewnorris5415]

The 570gt is a better car to liev with everyday. The ride is much better than the other two here.

[@JIMMYHIBBS1]

If you want drama, let's not forget the 911 GT3 .... the 911 Turbo has always been the slightly muted, and blunt 911 ...

[@erikhertzer8434]

[@malcolmc5964]

If you're talking about driving and nothing else I agree, but some people buy these to use regularly, even on a daily basis and if you do there is only one winner. The PORSCHE!

[@andrewnorris5415]

Why? This has a superior ride to the other two.

[@davidviner4932]

McLaren the best by far, Lotus engineers have always made the best drivers cars, and they’ve done it again working for McLaren

[@drivelogic3841]

Very Accurate Review~!!! Thank you

[@ganuv]

I’ll give you an 8 for the review because you should always have a drag race at the end , that’s what everyone always want to see.

[@thepineappleburster4439]

The R8 is a good car but you might as well get a Huracan since thats a better car. The McLaren is very good but it doesn't feel like an advancement on the development. Still very good though. The Porsche is another category on its own. The car drives sublime, looks sublime and is so reliable. You don't buy a Turbo to have a rev battle, or to see how fast it is really. You buy it because it makes you feel comfy but very special. It's an everyday car that is full of capabilities. And yes, the noise, it's a bit quit, but hey, get an exhaust.

[@TheTmat007]

ThePineAppleBurster 44 Who says the Huracan is a better car than the R8? And what "sublime" are you talking about in regards to the looks of the Porsche? All the 911 cars look like damn toads! The 911 turbo S is the ugliest car of the 3, in my opinion.

[@toplad72]

Except the massive difference in price between the R8 and lambo

[@thomaskepner1344]

A Great & Fair Analysis !!! EXCELLENT VIDEO !!!

[@UDPride]

There's a Porsche and Audi dealership 10 minutes from my house and within an hour of just about every major area of the USA. If I want to get an oil change on the 570GT, I have to spend $1800 enclosed trailer shipping just to ship the car to the closest McLaren dealership 5hrs away. Sorry. I want to drive my cars, not spend half my ownership experience shipping 3000lb packages around the country because the passenger airbag light wont turn off and McLaren refuses to release their workshop manuals to 3rd party shops. Plus McLaren reliability has been atrocious so far -- granted half-expected as they grow out from the teething process of starting a road car company. Don't trust Audi reliability much either. Sensible money and practicality remains with the Turbo S. Its a turn-key car I can park anywhere and not worry about always generating prying eyes and vandals/thieves. More usable space, top reliability, better dealer network, infinite independent shops, etc. All three cars are amazing, but I think some of these reviewers assume every potential owner has 9 cars when thats not the case. Many 911/Turbo owners own one car and it does everything for them -- it has to.

[@SteveC-Shaman]

I am one of those, though I do have a diesel truck as a second vehicle, it's sure a much different experience, lol

[@M3Conv]

If you were a real car guy you would move closer to the McLaren dealership and put your kids into boarding school ;)

[@goguhu]

This is the main issue ... if you have the car for show ... I would take a 720S or 488 ... however ... I like to drive my car ...a lot ... (relative to most super cars) that mean 10-15k/year, and have no quams to go on a 5k 3 week trip ... R8 is most likely as reliable as the 911, but lacking storage space, and even if the V10 is cool, it get tiresome after a week with 600miles days ...

[@SuryaDe]

Excellent quality review!

[@h80282]

Porsche is expansive but not expansive to maintain and it's saves fuel ⛽️ Plus the parts are not very expansive like the mclareen and the Audi Porsche's are made to last

[@spineboy]

h80282 something like 70% of ALL 911 are st on the road. very reliable, long lasting car

[@h80282]

spineboy I have 997 2007 no issues its still beautifull

[@CODeNEX23]

FINALLY, someone made this.

[@jwwatches1234]

The problem is is you can buy a top spec turbo s for a standard 570s

[@TheUglySlug666]

Not true at all, the Turbo S is more expensive than the 570s. You’re talking about the 570GT.

[@jwwatches1234]

Rast I was trying to say that the turbo s is great however you can buy a 570s for the same price depending how you spec it and have more of a supercar experience that's all 👍

[@TheUglySlug666]

I'm agreeing with you buddy, you just don't seem to realise that the Turbo S is literally £5000 more at base price than the 570S - so if you want a more 'supercar' like experience - the 570S is the cheaper, more fun alternative.

[@jwwatches1234]

Rast yes I agree I did make a mistake the car in the video was a 570gt my bad 👍

[@global_nomad.]

After all he other reviews of the 570GT the conclusion was inevitable. For that kind of money it has the right sense of occasion.

[@AnDuKn0Thi5MaN]

Only problem is that once you spec that mclaren to the point that it's a league above the other two cars, you're practically in a whole nother price bracket...my money is on the R8, at least from a purists perspective :)

[@andrewnorris5415]

You should see the original vid where he lists the specs. The specs were cosmetic, and a better sound system. The brakes, engine and suspension were all the same as the base model. Even the base brakes are better than the others here.

[@markjayw666]

Easy fixes for R8, skip the Dynamic steering and order the power seats. 😉

[@m4tiger12]

Enjoyed the video, thanks

[@shunsato6621]

Hello Matt! Great review dude! Daily driven capability 570GT practicality vs super comfy super easy super sleek V10 R8 vs almighty Turbo S... What tuff choices after all which one would you pick for you mate? Everyone wishes that we all could afford every three but to me Porsche is the one for my dream ride for me for all my life. So yeah I think I would choose Turbo S. Hey I was wondering when you are going to make Piston Head logo shirts? Because the logo is so cool and I think you should start making them for sale! Have a great weekend guys!

[@paulj5975]

R8 all day

[@eur1gys]

Great review - thank you !!!!

[@alanthecat59]

nice job

[@timmietz]

It is hard to believe that the McLaren is so much composed than the R8. That MR suspension on the Audi is crazy good!!

[@andrewnorris5415]

Lower car weight and fine tuning / good design makes it better than a more complex system. The 720s has taken it to new levels too.

[@taforth]

I guess you didn't consider reliability in your analysis. I have heard from various sources that McLarens are rather horrendous for reliability. Why not broach this subject??

[@M3Conv]

You are confusing McLaren Road cars with McLaren/Honda F1 cars ;) Reliability is getting better every year which is what you would expect for a 'new' company, other than a few electronic niggles i understand that the latest cars are extremely reliable and bulletproof even if you use them at the track.

[@billykmd]

Terry Forth I've had my 570s for a year now and haven't had any issues. I don't daily drive it but I do take it to work and enjoy nice weekends. I too have heard lots of complaints, usually the people who are upset are the loudest. Not as many people who are happy or satisfied with their purchase on sites praising it in comparison. My two cents.

[@andrewnorris5415]

My cousin has has all kinds of problems in his R8. Costing many thousands to fix.

[@wlchan0916]

Every car will have problems eventually. I own 570gt and everything still great. But if we talking about reliability check out ferrari tons of problems. Two my friends a 458 and 488 selling theirs cause of all the problems

[@ARlELATOM]

McLarens only have minor electronic problems, not big problems worth worrying about

[@bench175]

0:50 to skip the annoying intro

[@allensaunders449]

some of the car volggers do an excellent job of reviewing cars as someonw who might buy or own would see things not rubbish not the ones i watch. Saying that this is an excellent review indepth and right on . The turbo s never really excites even with the capabilities. The trouble with the Porsche and audi they are mass produced some don't want that

[@billykmd]

Allen Saunders I agree. I had my 570s for a year now and it is still a real joy to drive. It is an occasion and something special. I met a lot of strangers through this car. I doubt I would have that experience in a Porsche or Audi. Perhaps a 918...

[@rahul675Lt]

pdk is much faster than the s tronic box dual clutch box in the audi

[@kisilvan]

Excellent. Longer reviews please when doing comparisons if possible.

[@SteveC-Shaman]

Love my Turbo S.

[@isaiahr3471]

TurboS is UNquestionably the best all-around/usable GT/Supercar here, period! The McLarenGT makes a compelling case because of it lightness (thanx to CF-Tub) which pays dividends is stability/compliance & the hydraulic steering. But the Porsche's torque, reliability, AWD, along with Usable space it the Best

[@h80282]

Most exotic car here is the mclareen

[@ytytyt2516]

why you not do drag race in this review ???

[@Mockle07]

Sidhant Megh9 Probably because drag races are completely irrelevant when it comes to which car is best to drive.

[@abeerdubey4671]

911turbo s

[@yallway2262]

I've heard that a couple of times, Porsche not upfront about HP figures

[@mikewilson1957]

Question, what benefit to manufacturers get by underestimating the bhp of their cars!! Intrigued!! Great comparison btw

[@Stratocasterhead51]

Downplaying horsepower is only used for comparative reasons. Say car "X" has 350 hp but it is downplayed to 250. If you then compare it to car "Y" which has 300 horsepower, you put your car in a win win scenario. Since if car X loses you can say "oh well it had less power, its normal", if car X wins "wow it beat car Y despite having less horsepower". Porsche have been playing this game for a while now with their most recent models. Turbo S has way more than 580 horsepower and the 918 in hotlap mode has WAY more than the indicated 887hp.

[@ELUSIVEJIM]

Three great cars. One big issue. They should all be manual. What a waste.

[@erikhertzer8434]

Daily driver? 911 Turbo S

[@joukovilander]

570GT looks best damn sexy

[@TheTmat007]

J Vilander I disagree! To, me, the R8 looks best.

[@andrewnorris5415]

I don't like the new R8, old ones were better. 570 gt is nice. Each to their own.

[@TheTmat007]

@@andrewnorris5415 The new R8 outperforms its predecessor. It also sounds better. So, how do you mean the old R8 is better? Now, I do understand that looks is subjective (and that we're all entitled to our opinion, in that regard). But, are you saying that you consider the previous R8 "better" than the newer model siimply because you think it looks better?

[@stefanfreestylez]

british guy obv would go for mclaren...smfh the porsche is the best no doubt

[@Mockle07]

Stefan Cupovic Most English magazines/journalists rate Porsche higher than any other manufacturer... this guy just prefers the McLaren.

[@horsthofsass765]

That`s been british. What did you expect

[@andrewnorris5415]

I don't know man, McLarens suck in electronics, reliability and if the car doesn't work is hard to enjoy it! Might as well find something at a much lower price, pump the power up and it will be a better buy at this point.

[@msl5253]

McLaren, interior almost looks cheap. Not worthy of it's $$ from what I see, and know of the car. I'll take the 911 Turbo S or Audi, though I know I may make a better entrance in the McLaren. It's exterior looks great. But you don't live inside of it. LOL Think, the Porsche Turbo S resale will be better as well, from what I'm hearing about the lower McLarens resale. Nonetheless; all nice cars.

[@mrjtyGT640]

i have a 570GT and it is rather gorgeous inside. Much more minimal than the Germans. In fact, it's quite heavenly.

[@stevielowe2853]

mclaren for me also

[@fabiano6793]

☆Fantastic☆

[@ラッセル97]

audi sounds better porche look better mclaren has beautiful interior

[@swanblake]

V10 hands down. Not even a question. Wish you could get the old gated shifter with R8 though. That McLaren sounds dreadful. Audi sounds amazing

[@shunsato6621]

Oh yeah I didn't think about that in the first place we all got take the sweet V10 sound to serious consideration lol

[@andrewnorris5415]

But its handling and feedback are not up there with the 570gt As with others Audis. Yes it has more power, but this model has too much for the road. And when get to the track the steering, handling and extra weight, and lack of feedback will make it not as fun as the 570gt.

[@shadowrambo117]

Mclaren looks too wanna be boy racer and the headlights reminds me too much of McDonald’s Golden Arches, plus reliability reviews just doesn’t really help the reputation. I’d be equally happy to take the Audi or the Porsche

turbo s all day long for those who know ;)

[@mycommends7058]

hmm, which one should I pick ? oh wait I got 3 of them. 911 turbo s - very good daily driving car, no one care to look at you. launching this car reminds me of my vacuum that is used to clean the house, My STHL Leaf Blower sounds better and louder lol. faster than the Audi R8 after 2018s, no reason why the 2018 Audi R8 v10 plus drop from 610 horse power to 602 horse power. hopefully 2019 they will upgrade the interior that looks like the current 2018 Panamera , and maybe likely to add e-hybrid to it. If you like pure sound + a little better on the price, I recommend go for Audi R8 v 10 plus. this car does not hold its value good so pick your option wisely. audi r8 v10 plus - wake your neighbour kids up for school, scare your cat while taking a dumb, piss of your wife , everyday early in the morning.allow people to crash into post while looking at you. too much attention but not as much as Lamborghini, or Ferrari. pure v10 sound. in my opinion its a good sport car to buy if you would not wish for a large amount money to stuck in a sport car. if you don't care go for a huracan performante. interior is very comfortable, this car can be driven in 2 condition, comfort + B & O speaker to the max. or dynamic with windows down or up. I recommend for you to get a highway patrol detector as for this car will always makes you want to floor it. I wish they can have a front camera mount for parking because the sensor is horrible. and hopefully they can have a front face lift incase of encountering a bump. pretty nice price friendly sport car that will makes you feel like a guy that gets people attention, everyone will be wondering what are you doing for living. but if you are young Chinese dude, well of course " he got his money from his papa" mclaren 570s - good for you. low horse power? no worries it is very light weight. as long as you know how to launch this shit, for sure turbo s and r8 v10 doesn't stand a chance. what is the purpose of this car? I really don't know, why I bought it ? because everyone has it. so what. do with this car. hmm I love to park it at Starbuck and watch people watching my car. just be careful of driving this car during raining slippery condition, its rear wheel drive. if you have extra cash I recommend go for the 720s. all 3 car have different personality and feeling. which one is better? hmm are all good, it depends on what you really want. 3 of these care does not hold its value. unless maybe r8 will, if they decide not to produce v10 engine anymore after 2019 and changed to twin turbo v6s. the v10, v12 & v16 always sounds best. maintenance cost wise for these 3 cars I think its still consider as friendly. insurance is cheap. gas is not bad even though its 91. If you are young, and don't have at-least 1 mil in bank please do not try to own these car in exchange for other people's feeling, attention and thought. its not worth it. doesn't matter if you lease, finance or buy out. take your time to work your way out. sometimes just sitting at home and enjoy other people driving it on youtube is not bad. now a days sport, exotic cars tend to produce faster and faster, technology keeps getting better. the value of these car does not hold as good as the back in the days sport cars. these cars are like a expensive toy and hobby. yes you might want to show off but you will always be constantly worrying about someone scratching your car while parked somewhere outside.

[@andrewnorris5415]

Mac has better ride. And yes it does weigh less, and this not only makes a difference to speed - but also to the handling. Esp, when combined with the hydraulic steering and well sorted suspension that copes much better on your average B road. The mac is the daily driver for me.

[@andrewnorris5415]

But personally I think you should sell the R8 and the 570gt - and get a 720. Keep the turbo s for when don't want to be looked at when going shopping :)

[@andrewdove9867]

Why do I get the feeling that in 20 yrs the 911 will be going strong and the other 2 will be horrendously unreliable/expensive to own?
