    McLaren Speedtail review! The McLaren Speedtail is amazing -- and it's the coolest modern hypercar, in my opinion. Today I'm reviewing the McLaren Speedtail, and I'm going to show you all the quirks and features of the Speedtail -- and then I'm going to drive the Speedtail and review the driving experience.

    Would be interesting to see some outside camerawork, especially on shoots of hypercars like this one, the Rimac Neverra and the Plaid to get a bit more context on the acceleration. I'm looking out the window when you punch it, and obviously you are being pushed into your seat, but it would be cool to have maybe at least a couple cameras recording the start and end of your acceleration test.

      Lmao actually though, just like when your phone is a few milimeters off of the wireless charger. I wonder how a system like that could work with trucks? Receivers on the bottom of the lower suspension arms or something? I suppose what i mean is with something as low and flat as the speedtail i feel like it could be incorporated into the car without a problem. Some tray that sits under the battery tray on the floor. Maybe air suspension that lowers your car when you park would get them close enough? Sry for rant i just like your idea

    i love how they kept the original spirit of the F1 with the seats and the windows. But common the windows are so small, can't be more proud to have own the very unique Toyota Sera witch had the door it inspired the Mclaren F1 and it costed me pretty much 0 except use, bought it from 2300 NZD and sold it 3000 , it pay the repairs bills. so i would never ever put so much money in a car.

    Doug is way off on the “gold” tool kit… those are made of 100% solid unobtainium.

      Yes, Doug completely inaccurate in this one, making more drama than it should, the tools are from titanium and finished with a titanium nitride coating which gave it a gold finish to match the engine

    Doug's face when he first steps on the accelerator tells you all you need to know every time.
    As per usual with cars with this amount of power, the expression of shock, surprise, a primal sense of fear and excitement. What was new though, were the rather disturbing sound effects...
