Am I the only who prefers the 12c front end to the 650S? I think the newer style headlights only look good on the P1.

SoCalSupercars i think the 12c is so much smoother looking. love the 12c. if i were to buy a 650s, i'd ask them to put the 12c face on it and i'll offer them like a million bucks

McLaren cars are brilliant in every way. To all the lucky owners I envy you to no end

Probably one of the best reviews i have watched, thoroughly enjoyed this!

Incredible review. Thank you guys for showing us the history of brands and thier cars. By doing it, you give your reviews a perspective that some other youtube channels lack. Also, your language is beautiful as well.

Literally my dream job. You get to drive the coolest cars and review them.

To quote Bruce McLaren at the end put the whole thing in perspective. It is better to have than have not!

Fantastic piece by Alex and the xcar folks. The videography is sublime as always. Thank you

This is why i love this channel; the reviews are pure, concise, and to the point. The larger channels have begun to disappoint and bore me; they try too hard to please the masses with tacky jokes and sesquipedalian loquaciousness - using large and elaborate words to seem smart. The mclaren 650s is my future dream car after i finish my schooling; thank you boys for a proper and stunning review. Last question, what is the music beginning at 9:50 - it is a banger of a track. Cheers boys! - Mike.

Great vid and i love the way you summed it up because im a Mclaren fan and i feel they do have a soul and they are very passionate about their cars and motorsport. I think someone even said that Mclaren is just as much of an engineering company as they are a car company.

One of your greatest videos to date. Absolutely superb.

I hope you guys do one the Hurracan, the AMG GTs, and the S63 coupe soon ! Love your videos.. Amazing stuff as always :)

I love the 650s! I'm so glad you did a review on it. Great video!

m4-12c with the P1 front hood and tail lights along with the 570s rear diffuser and interior bucket seat and dash instruments set up . Now that would be a very good mclaren indeed.

Love Alex goy's writing. Really complimented the 650s. Great car, Great review.

Always love the quality of this video

Great !

Great review as always.

Feels a tad bit better than the 488 in my opinion...And you guys..great review..absolutely love it

Love my 650s! Had a 12c loved it but wanted spider and a little update. It’s worlds better as a spider!!!

Nicely done, XCAR.

I now drive a 650S Spider after having a 12C Coupe, the difference is amazing! Performance wise it's another league! May not look much on paper, but in the seat of your pants, it's massive! Do remember as well, the previous 12C is a VERY quick car! I really don't understand the "You're not getting the most" "It's holding your hand" bit... It's a 1350kg 640BHP 207mph road car, I want all the help it can give me on the public highway. If you track it, the traction systems can be turned off to allow proper yob behaviour! Utterly brilliant!

Alex your so good at this go on top gear!!!!

great review

Great review! I think Ferrari is becoming more like GT cars. McLaren on the other hand is listening to its customers and making all kinds of cars...like you said, a bit faster a bit better than the others.

very nice review

are you guys ever gonna review the lexus LFA? i know there is a blue press car in the UK

I love your reviews...No need to say more.

Nice words at the end 👍

As a brz owner I love mclaurens. When I make it big that’ll be my upgrade

please do videos of the p1 la ferrari and 918 spyder

props for the quotes!

Best car show on KZread

Beautifully put together as always guys. Love your work, but this one felt a teeny bit 'lacking' to me. Can't honestly say why, but it didn't feel as effusive as, say, the video you did on the 458...

great vid thank you :)

I think this young man (name?) does the best auto reviews on youtube. Steve Sutcliffe is a close 2nd.

Was the air on not working as it seemed a bit steamed up...?

can you please review 2016 jaguar f type r coupe 4 wheel drive. thank you

Sickest quote I have ever heard.

Interesting to see which is better, the 675LT or the up and coming 488... I hope the 675 wins out :) nice review, will there be much of the Mille Miglia, and your burnt sneaker ?

I love this car but the alcantara interiors are horrible. A well stitched leather interior anyday over this.

Great video. I must say though, I find the 12C to be significantly prettier at the front.

So fine as it is and as usual

One of the best looking cars IMO

I hope that someone from carfection reads my comment. I am a long time sub who loves the channel and experience that you boys provide. I have desperately been searching for the song at 9:50 for over a year now. Do any of you boys know the song name? Cheers - Mike

Alex! That's the Kingsman's Ring!

That was brilliant.

When will you review the P1??

Nice vid and whathaveyou ..... but still prefer the 458 .... and really looking forward the 488.

Has anyone told you, you look like Chester from Link in Park!? Anyway, great video!!

this guy is the best reviewer

would like to watch a review of the 675 LT :)

The public will get their hands on the LT in July of this year. I can not wait for that car. Heck I'd settle for a review of the 650s LeMans in the mean time just because it the best looking Mac that's not an F1 or P1

Please review the F12 next!! :D

+kerk tp The Turbo S has three problems. You can only get the best out of it while actually driving fast, which you cant do on 90% of the roads. Also the price. Porsche likes making the base car really cheep however charge you lots of money for options which should be as standard. You can end up paying 250K for a car originally priced at 100K. The third is the depreciation. They depreciate worse than McLaren's do.

I prefer the front on the 12c. I have no doubt this is a better car...but I'd be very happy with a 12c Spider. : )

Its as if the MP4-12 and P1 got in bed together and made this lol again XCAR has done a great job in making a review :) very happy. Thank you!

If it does the thinking then YOU'RE not the one getting the most out of it. It's guiding you and holding your hand. Where's the challenge in that? But it's the same problem with almost all modern cars. Given me an old school car any day

econ1985 lol, watch a review on the S63 AMG... all the major supercar and luxury marques are doing the same. no one wants to make a car anymore that you can "DRIVE", that's why i'll be sadden when they completely stop making manual gear boxes

Lovely car but those rims look tacky in a McLaren!

458 Italia Speciale all the way please.

It looks like they have 'fiddled' with everything!

❤ Mclaren

I am #McLaren fan and to be honest I was not surprised they took a little Porsche-like strategy in building cars with focus on overall quality vs "emotion". Almost like Golf. You cannot say anything really bad not to buy one if you have chance as most of arguments will be against others. What I do like is how McLaren is dinamic in updates and increasing their portfolio. This also has own downfall. Now you cannot even "connect" with manufacturer as every few years they hit market with new model, and you are just waiting for those crown jewels - GT3 and Speciale version as they are ones which bring "emotion" to brand. McLaren just needs to find own version.

Love the look of there new lower powered car but this one dousing do anything for me

All right All Right, still love you XCAR - But this one was a bit quirky in edit. Perhaps some track action would have accomplished this video very well - But that is easy for me to say. Thank You

Nice, but I would say debatable: Ferrari has both, passion as you call it and engineering. It is one of the most innovative supercar companies, just look at each new model and you will always find loads of new pieces of technology, and many times even radical changes and innovations such as with the "4WD" of the FF to give an example. That's why, IMO, Ferrari is that step higher than the others. It manages to combine beauty/art, sport/performance and innovation all at once.

A "step closer" doesn't matter if they're still 1000 steps from perfection

I drove a MP4 12 c on a track day rental best 500 bucks ever paid

The V10 sound in the intro is not loud enough

Hope this is the last McLaren with the 12C rear and the P1 front. Such a great car but such a lazy design.

that quote tho

This car is already like 2/3 years old right?

This review was lost at sea from about the 30" mark. It just shows you why Clarkson gets the dosh. I could go on but I'd rather stick needles in my eyes. Or do I mean Needell's.

What do people mean when they say a car doesn't have "feeling" or "soul"?

8 minutes in before he stops listening to himself, trying hard, to wax poetic and finally gives it some beans. Unfortunately, those few seconds were extremely fleeting.

mclaren > ferrari

About late... This car Has been out a while You should of done the new one!

6:00 Illuminati confirmed

ahh!!! my eyes i cant look at it

That Nike face only fits P1 and ruined the understated beauty of MP4

i think he means dynamics not danamics

The guy sounds a lot like Richard Hammond...

second is steve from autocar,chris harris is third

Step closer to perfection? so step closer to Ferrari 458?

good they now have that mclaren name on the hood instead of the logo that to me looks like a logo of a chinese running shoes brand :D

For me the interior(screen) and the sopiler of the mclaren is better than the Ferrari

Two reasons why I love Mclaren. 1: it pisses ferrari off because Mclaren cars are faster (just ignore current F1 form ahem). Ferrari thinks the motor industry ows them. Nope. They act like a spoilt child. 2: I'm an aircraft engineer and I love the fact that function dictates; aerodynamics takes precedence. No aircraft was designed to look pretty, but you'll find in the aerospace world that if it looks good it will fly well. Concorde, Spitfire, SR-71. Even a Mooney. Point proved with the 650S. It's a purist, thinking man's super car, the engineers car. Now I'm off down the pub. Bye.

Awesome car awesome company years a head of ferrari stick to your guns mclaren thave been saying the same about porsche for years and thay spank ferrari all day everyday aswel.

I’d buy one of these before a Ferrari

Until Jeremy drives it, it doesn't exist.
