Buy the right McLaren and you’ll probably own the best car you’ve ever had. I took the risk and after 8k miles in 9mths in my 2019 720s I’ve had ZERO issues. It’s just 10x the fun and seriously quicker than of any other cars I’ve had, AM vanquish, 911 gts & M760Li to name a few. The issues usually come with the earlier cars pre 2018/19 with little mileag because they just sit, so buy from a dealer, get the 12mth warranty and USE IT!
FYI, the door pop feature works on all three of those McLarens. And the 570S and 720S also have a hidden door lock feature, you got a feel for it, it's like a dime sized capacitance button inside the upper part of the vent. All four of my McLaren's had that ability.
With more McLaren specialists coming into the market (In the UK at least), scary main dealer repair bills are not as much of a concern anymore. McLarens offer such incredible performance for the money! 😁
I think I would still want the MP4-12C despite the unimaginative name because it still looks like a car instead of a spaceship, but between those 3, 650S for sure is my favorite because it's the closest to my favorite McLaren.
The 650 seems to have a deeper guttural growl to it that both the 570 and 720 do not. I have always loved the sound of the 650/675. Oddly enough though, not to shit on my own point but the way the 720 revs sounds like a pissed off Honda S 2000, which is insanely cool and it’s on right.
I doubt many 720 owners would find any satisfaction in someone saying their car sounds like a ricer Honda. Certainly no one in the market for this level of car would. That's not the goal of a supercar. I'm not saying your wrong, you may be correct, I don't hang around people with Honda S2000's.
The 720S is a beast....a true supercar. The 570s is a real bargain at the prices you can currently get them used at. I have not driven and don't know much about the 650s. I feel more educated about it after this video!
The rule of thumb in how you should think about McLarens is 650s is like the 997 12c is like the 996 570s is like a 981 720s is like a 991 750s is like the 992
Guys, if I want to buy a used McLaren, what would be a good mileage? I was once told to buy less than 10k if I want a used Ferrari. Does this apply to McLaren too? Just curious. Thank you.
Two of those cars rides on a different chassis that was newer, and its not the 650. The 570 was the savior of MCLAREN as a brand if i remember correctly. I believe the 650 is related to the MC12C. The story of McLaren is the wonderous NISSAN LMP engine unrestricted and what it can do. That engine won the constructors championship against the full might of Audi in a era that is legendary for motorsports.
I'm glad i came across your video, I'm actually in the market for a Mclaren, between the 570gt, 650, 600Lt, or GT. I'm really leaning/love the 600Lt. So my question is, what do you think of the 600lt and GT. I would be interested in the 720, but I've been seeing/reading some costly issues with the 720. E.g. Vibration that causes the windshield to crack (along the sides). Mclaren hasn't been able to fix this issue let alone has announced they can fix this issue. I'm not a fan of the color orange, but what's the miles on the 650 an your asking price for the 650? TIA.
The cheapest -650s I found was $130k ,570s $125k ,720s $210k not badly priced compared to other super car but the quality control and the reliability is what scare people that aren’t rich rich 😅
The 720 is difficult just because you don't want to scratch the exposed carbon. Once you get in and out a few times you get used to it, but certainly it's not smooth like a normal door.
Like anything, practice. Also, in some cars you gain a heck of a lot by moving the seat back before getting out, and then it's also all the way back prior to getting in. I'm not big, but I still do this on my cars. But if you have only been in the 12C once, I get it. You need a bit of living with the car to really get settled in. And with the wide sills of the McLaren, it's a bit of a thing. But hey, I had a Lotus Elise to practice on. If you can get gracefully in and out of that, you're set for life lol.
I only just found your channel. I greatly appreciate your ‘Normal’ Every Day Guy, presentation. About 6 minutes of dudes stroking their egos and flexing their (supposedly) luxury lifestyle is all I can stomach on most channels. I’m just an aerospace engineer and have to work for my modest income. Thank you for presenting to the normal Joe- even if you’re just faking it because really, you all are beneficiaries of family wealth and never worked a day in your life 😉
The 570s is every bit as quick as the 650 and more reliable. It is a car that will be valued more and more over time. It’s the McLaren sweet spot. Look for the HDK 570s Spider and hold on to it.
Review kinda sounds you are biased on 570s. It’s just been let down in many avenues and it’s not true. 570s is a modern tech and better in every way minus less hp. It’s a more refined designed and new tech.
The 650 doesn’t look McLaren like. The taillights are boring and don’t have the taillights resembling the McLaren logo in the rear nor the front headlights. The rear in the 650s is a mess. The 570s is king and will be limg otherwise we wouldn’t have this discussion. Why is the older and less advanced model still being argued for ? It’s because it’s timeless and is the pinnacle of McLaren and its cars imho

I’m thinking to pick up the 650S here in Dubai. Thoughts?
@@Lukew28 your lucky

this guy's gotta be the most chill supercar guy on yt
Haha ok thank you

The 650 and 12c are essentially the same car.
@@normalguysupercar so then it's really like a 12c with a facelift and a new name to match the line up moving forward then isn't it.
The first design of a car is always the best. Look at the XKE, Testarossa and McClaren. The 12C or 650S are beautiful.
The 650s is by far the most gorgeous one.
Yeah I agree
The 650 has ugliest rear out of every McLaren just like the mp12
IMO, the 650S still has the best rear style and especially the P1 front inspired design. The 720S rear and 570S looks like a masquerade mask.
I think the 720S looks best with 650 in 2nd
Best looks of all three: 650 S … for my taste. The front of the 720 …well I‘d need two or three glasses of Whisky to like it more probably
The 650 seems to have a deeper guttural growl to it that both the 570 and 720 do not. I have always loved the sound of the 650/675. Oddly enough though, not to shit on my own point but the way the 720 revs sounds like a pissed off Honda S 2000, which is insanely cool and it’s on right.
They all sound pretty good, it's not NA good, but it's good. I'm sure they'd scream with a nice exhaust mod.

@@christschool k
Thats why I rather 650,12c or p1 they sound more V8 and dramatic than the others
The 720S is a beast....a true supercar. The 570s is a real bargain at the prices you can currently get them used at. I have not driven and don't know much about the 650s. I feel more educated about it after this video!
It's in-between the 570 and 720. More luxury than the 570, but not as much as the 720. The tech is also a little older.
The rule of thumb in how you should think about McLarens is
650s is like the 997
12c is like the 996
570s is like a 981
720s is like a 991
750s is like the 992
Great video !!!! Always wondered what the differences were between models....
There you go. :)
Those ceiling lights are incredibly distracting and annoying. But, TU for the video, thanks for putting this together.
I love the lights.
Guys, if I want to buy a used McLaren, what would be a good mileage? I was once told to buy less than 10k if I want a used Ferrari. Does this apply to McLaren too? Just curious. Thank you.
I would suggest higher miles so any kinks are worked out already
@@normalguysupercar bingo, that's how McLarens work
excellent video, thanks guys!
Our pleasure!
Dan, doesn't the 720s have a 4 liter engine vs 3.8 for all the other ones?
Correct
Two of those cars rides on a different chassis that was newer, and its not the 650. The 570 was the savior of MCLAREN as a brand if i remember correctly. I believe the 650 is related to the MC12C.

@@normalguysupercar Now built by Ricardo.
I'm glad i came across your video, I'm actually in the market for a Mclaren, between the 570gt, 650, 600Lt, or GT. I'm really leaning/love the 600Lt. So my question is, what do you think of the 600lt and GT. I would be interested in the 720, but I've been seeing/reading some costly issues with the 720. E.g.

The 650 isn't for sale. I'm a fan of the 600lt.
On the 720S the space under the tonneau cover looks like a great place for a suit bag.
Yup!
Excellent video guys!!! One constructive point; drive byes, I wish you would have shown each driving by.
Ah yes
The cheapest -650s I found was $130k ,570s $125k ,720s $210k not badly priced compared to other super car but the quality control and the reliability is what scare people that aren’t rich rich 😅
Yeah
who would have thought dan turned into a mclaren guy wahahhaa....
Well to be fair I still love Ferrari more but I am certainly becoming a McLaren fan
The 3 wise men!!!! Should’ve been the title!!
Haha
There really cheap in the uk a 540c goes for 70,000 pounds and a 600lt is the best McLaren for the money
Agreed on the 600lt
How about getting in and out? Any differences? I found that to be less than graceful with my one experience driving a 12C.
The 720 is difficult just because you don't want to scratch the exposed carbon. Once you get in and out a few times you get used to it, but certainly it's not smooth like a normal door.

No one to work on them near me. 🤔
Check out mcmedic
I want the 570s! But I'm afraid. Good video an information guys.
Ah nothing to be afraid of
Don't wimp yourself out of the best car mortal money can buy.
Nice to see Tyler on this review but, he got the worst of the audio. I think I’ll be happy with the 570S, 650S and the 600LT.
Yeah, I only had 2 lav mics unfortunately.
I'd buy the 570S. It's the most reliable of the 3.
Probably
Nope. 720S is .
I'd hug all three
Lol yes
Tyler did a great job presenting! not sure if there was a microphone issue
Yeah the mic was shit
@@normalguysupercar McLaren is shit. 😂🤣
Might have to unsubscribe. Dan is a traitor!! 🤣
Just kidding. Another great vid as usual. 👍

I wish I had intergenerational wealth...
I think the back of the 570 looks better than the other 2
To each their own
@@normalguysupercar570s back looks better - hands down. Every single ppl including mclaren dealers even agreeing to it
great comparison vid - all you needed was a GT and you would've had the entire lineup represented, lol
Pretty much
Can race with mclaren 570s vs 650s who win and who is faster
Would be a good race
I like these guys!
Thank you
Nice job guys.
Thanks
makes me so proud to actually be from Surrey 🙂
That's cool
No
I definitely prefer the steering feel of the 570S.
Yeah it's nice and go kart feeling
They're all gorgeous but the 570s has the MCLAREN DNA.
I suppose?
Wish you guys had done this when you had all the Ferraris
We can sometime. I've done a few here and there.
If you go back two years or so in the library, there's a video where Dan does something similar with a 458 and 488 I believe.
Makes me very proud of it. Really I felt jallacy
Thanks

Awesome!!!
Thanks
Yes love it!
Yup
Under the cover is were Adam hides his dress.
Lol
I remember the coolant disaster :)
Lol yup
Do mclarens spend more time in the shop than they do on the road
Some... Not all.
1st!!! Finally! What do I win!? Some merch!?
You won nothing? LOL
Review kinda sounds you are biased on 570s. It’s just been let down in many avenues and it’s not true. 570s is a modern tech and better in every way minus less hp. It’s a more refined designed and new tech.
Well I don't think the 570 is as good a car as the others
The 650 doesn’t look McLaren like. The taillights are boring and don’t have the taillights resembling the McLaren logo in the rear nor the front headlights. The rear in the 650s is a mess.

Interesting
Dan, that 720s is top-notch! But I like Tyler's 650s a lot as well. Shoot, I like all of them!!!
Yeah, they really are good cars. Super fun.
Now we know the Adam backstory… he liked McLaren over Ferrari.
LOL
570s has the best sound.
I suppose
Ferrari should let a steering wheel be a wheel not a button messed up thing wtf
Huh?
No street racing? Boooo!!!! Also, I couldn't make out what Tyler was saying, double BOOOOO!!!!!
Yup
Adam…how tall are you and what’s your pant’s length? I’m 6’1" and pant’s length is 29 “. I want to know if you are my size.
I think he's about that tall
@@normalguysupercar Good to know. Now include in every video Adam getting in and out of the vehicle.
i take the GT :))
Ok
The 570s also has a hidden lock/unlock button in rear qtr panel intake
Oh nice
In the driving bit, you should have focused more on the differences between the 3 cars, not comparing it to ferrari etc
Ok
So who won the race? Oh, that's right, there was no race.
Yeah.
THREE?!?!?!? 😮
Yup
cant hear what he say about the 650s.
We've done full reviews on it previously
Oh dear, oh dear.
Oh yes
So 720 it is
Pretty much
McLaren three way WWE title fight, lol
Lol
come on guys at least to a drag.
There aren't any good locations to do a 3 way drag nearby
wow
Yup
Good video as always but the mclanchs all boring
EH, I think saying they are boring is really not accurate in any way. It's pretty damn exciting to drive them.
There all shit,bad quality and unreliable.and you lose lots of money 😅
Ok. And you know from personal experience?
