Supercar Luxury? | 2020 McLaren GT Review

Yes, you read this right! A McLaren that competes with Bentley and Aston Martin! Strange, right?! Well...not really.
This is the all-new McLaren GT and it was built from the ground up to be a GT car. Unlike a Continental GT or DB11, this doesn't have your typical front-engine setup. As a matter of fact, this is still a true supercar through & through. It offers a different category of GT car compared to your typical large & comfy powerhouses. If you want a true driving machine that can be driven every day, this may be it! The big question here is whether or not this McLaren should be your pick over the already well-established competition. Let's find out!

First Huracan EVo now this? keep it up Forrest, I remember when you had a opportunity to only do Mazda reviews :)

[@forrestsautoreviewsofficial]

It looks like you have stuck around for a while! I seriously appreciate you following for so long! Glad you enjoyed the review!

[@MilesPerHr]

Nice one, Forrest! It was a thrill to experience launch control in this with you.

[@forrestsautoreviewsofficial]

WOW! How could I forget to throw pricing in the video...This starts at $213,195 and the price for this test vehicle was $256,125. Yes, we all know you can buy several C8 Corvettes for that price but would you ever consider a McLaren GT over something like a Bentley Continental GT or and Aston Martin DB11? The fact that this McLaren is cheaper than an Aston Martin DBS Superleggera is kind of crazy! (SIDE NOTE) ALMOST AT 70,000 SUBSCRIBERS!! NEXT GOAL IS 100,0000!

A McLaren GT is an interesting concept, but the execution is still suspect, IMO. My understanding is that customers of McLaren Cars are still suffering with shoddy workmanship, limited parts availability, poor service from an extremely small dealer network, and engineering solutions that may be a bit too fragile for daily driver or grand touring duty. (Not that Bentley or Aston-Martin are much better, though.) To me, touring in the grand manner includes not worrying about being broken down miles from home, waiting two months for parts, and arranging for alternate transportation home while fretting over the towing and long-term storage of my quarter-million-dollar exotic. While I am not the customer for this kind of car, if I was, I would look at a new Acura NSX or a used Lexus LFA, but I would probably dial it down a bit and go for a Lexus LC 500 or Nissan GT-R. The Japanese seem to be the only ones who can make a legitimate "everyday exotic." (I am not picking on British marques; the German and Italian auto manufacturers have similarly poor reputations in this category.) Putting aside whether you can include the new Corvette in this category, I consider the C8 suspect until proven reliable, given GM's history of using its customers a beta testers. Congrats on 70K subscribers.

Forrest's Auto Reviews king 👑 ok how do u become a car reviewer like I want to do it I already have a knowledge of cars and I’m entertaining behind a camera but what are the steps u took to do this and how do u get these cars?

[@forrestsautoreviewsofficial]

Bryce will make a video on this!

[@brynnleahnayvieghlaykynnn6175]

Forrest's Auto Reviews THANK U SO MUCH like deadass

[@tg9769]

Absolute bag of nails, poor design and shite build. ,

[@j_faz0656]

Doing big things with these reviews, I wanna see you win. Keep doing you brudda 🤟🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@Blueelectricvibe]

As a person who loves Bentley and Aston Martin, I would choose this luxurious Mclaren.

[@coreyphillip5807]

Love your reviews man! So knowledgeable and fun to watch. Keep doing your thing.

[@ameykillekar9574]

The most detailed and informative video about this car I have ever seen. Your other videos are so great also. I think that this is the best suited car for me as i'm entering the car world. And now thanks to you my decision is made for this car. Keep doing the great work. God Bless You and Your Family.

[@Imasha-xh5cv]

Really good review. I got a good idea about this car after watching this review. I think this is better than most of the other reviews. Keep up :)

[@sem3p]

Great review man. You have a really nice read on the aesthetics.

[@davebest5624]

Greetings from England. Great vid. Just noticed Doug DeMuro reviewing what looks like the exact same car! Press car I assume. looks great and sounds even better.

[@EatSleepDrive]

What a treat. Another great review!

[@zzzgarage2704]

very informative! Immediately subscribed :)

[@cornbread70s4]

Great detailed review Brotha.

[@ding020468]

Nice review. Liked and subbed. Well done.

[@Mycryptospaceuk2127]

Dude your rocking the KZbin exotic driver market love it!!!!!

[@stevielowe2853]

Really enjoyed the review. Congrats The car is stunning definitely my choice

[@966396631]

It’s the GT version. It would have been interesting to see your thoughts on the ride and handling in the Comfort mode rather than sport or track.

[@mr.roulette7537]

Great review

[@jmsmikey]

Great review~ It would be interesting if they made a roadster version of this.

[@sapear2]

I just reviewed a friends TT RS to start my foray into car reviews. I had a blast but I can only imagine what something like this must feel like. Good to see you getting these levels of cars now. Crazy how quick you've grown. Congrats!

[@forrestsautoreviewsofficial]

Do you have a channel? I’ll check it out.

[@sapear2]

Forrest's Auto Reviews yeah it’s just got the one review right now. Going to use that to try to convince some local dealers (Las Vegas area) to work with me. But thanks that would mean a lot. First video isn’t perfect, learned a lot when I went to edit but that will improve. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5mYYqOCoauWlZY

[@SchoolOfLifeEducation]

Great review but question how tall are you? I am 6ft3 would it be comfortable for me to drive?

[@VirtueAce]

I like the wheels and color of the paint.

[@p_e_a_c_e8346]

U r so underrated bro...

[@TravisWaelbroeck]

The McLaren GT makes the C8 Corvette look like garbage. The McLaren is straight up gorgeous inside and out.

[@MAGApepe]

nice,, so where is the parking brake ?

[@jessellsealy7888]

Interesting that it has pretty good visibility all around for a "super car". That's not common for vehicles in that class.

[@Blueelectricvibe]

I just noticed how much it looks like the C8 Corvette or should I say the C8 Corvette looks like it lol.

[@investigativereports1622]

Looks NOTHING Like a Corvette! Sit them next to each other. The Corvette Looks Like a CHEAP Piece of Crap compared to the McLaren! PERIOD!

[@your-neighbor]

the Corvette looks like it

[@BAMovin]

Maybe I missed it but you didn't mention the electrochromic glass roof. Darkens or lightens at a touch. 👍

[@dylankerr5432]

He shows it at the 17 minute mark

[@sirgeorgioalastrata4104]

This is my dream car

[@Raze145]

McLaren is definitely not a small company anymore. They grew big since the release of the 12C.

[@sillimilli3802]

If I want to seem faster and cooler I would choose this

[@FrankypankyV8]

McLaren really is trying to make several versions of one base ... Which was introduced as a sportcar. For that money I would pick the C8, leaving enough money for a luxery Hyundai/Genesis (like the one you reviewed earlier) Weird exhaust system also. And why a track mode if it's a GT, a Grand Tourer? Great video as usual 👍🏽

[@a_ye.bra5]

Just came from tik tok to see this🤩💯

[@rileypettit4832]

Personally I love this design

[@victorjuniormedina5881]

I love the new McLaren gt

[@georgeholloway3981]

This is the McLaren for me.

[@jimmorrison3830]

Make it a convertible and I will buy it. On the side it looked like a C8

[@Robashhh]

McLaren is not a new company, it's a British institution. Anyone recall the McLaren F1 one of the pioneers of a 200mph Super Car from the 90's, not to mention their prominence in Motorsport the peak being Formula 1. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McLaren_F1

[@Stevenet1]

Mmmmmmmm. Gorgeous.

[@jaysonvon3856]

Overall the McLaren GT is great, just not a fan of how it looks up front lol

[@investigativereports1622]

It looks AMAZING in the front, Get your Glasses checked!

[@cletusoneill8732]

Had a good few continental gts,supersports, just sold me Aston Martin DB11AMR,and got a GT Mclaren coming next week,I don’t get to exited about cars these days but I am really looking forward the the Mclaren 😊

[@JG-cm3uv]

If I were shopping for a GT car, I would take this McLaren over an Aston Martin, but not over a Bentley.

[@forrestsautoreviewsofficial]

Agreed. I feel like the Bentley customer has a completely different want out of their car.

[@investigativereports1622]

You MUST be a Boring Old Man to take the Boring Old man looking Bentley over the STUNNING youthful looking McLaren!

[@your-neighbor]

​@@investigativereports1622 Try mansory Geneva edition.

[@darkdragonentertainment8778]

Lol I have 2017 bentley supersport but im getting this car cuz is fly as fu*k

[@darkdragonentertainment8778]

Lol I ended up getting both but a 720s instead of the gt

[@your-neighbor]

​@@darkdragonentertainment8778 gt is the ball man.

[@darkdragonentertainment8778]

Lol I had to get the 720

[@stevejoseph1664]

I'll take the 720S.

[@andrelima5124]

Best looking modern McLaren but over a Bentley or Aston Martin : Probably not !

[@investigativereports1622]

There is NO Way You could think a Bentley looks better than this.

[@andrelima5124]

@@investigativereports1622 Yes, there's way, especially when we're talking about GT cars, Bentley's are classier inside and out!

[@investigativereports1622]

You Must be an OLD Dude to pick THOSE over the McLaren. Us young guys pick this hands down!

[@andrelima5124]

@@investigativereports1622 nah, I'm 26 and I aways prefer front engine rwd for GT cars, now if we're talking about Supercars, McLarens looks really good.

[@your-neighbor]

​@@investigativereports1622 try the Geneva edition.

[@Tassaczek]

I think I need around 300k Euro to buy it :D

[@your-neighbor]

the wheels are the best thing about this car, wonder why they replaced it with ugly looking wheels in 2022.

[@ovasov]

looks nothing like a c8

[@allancatellier7424]

Yes it's great only because It's parent company is VW 🤫

[@richardg8712]

Mclaren is not owned by VW Your thinking Lamborghini

[@staceymcgrath890]

Have to disagree the drone is the whole point of the car. If you want sound deadening and a quiet ride buy a Bentley. That sound behind is glorious.
