The car lacks the insane horsepower and super-techy suspension of other McLaren vehicles, but <strong>it offers a more mechanical, analog, and natural driving experience, according to the presenter. It looks like a heck of a lot of fun.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Harris drives the hardened cousin of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/mclaren-570s-spider-review\/\">570S<\/a> at the Circuit De Charade in France.<\/strong> As he does, the sky begins to spit rain, making the drive a whole lot more difficult. With that said, Harris completes the task in entertaining style, spinning the tires and getting sideways a few times.<\/p>\n<p>The McLaren 600LT comes with a\u00a0<b>3.8L twin-turbocharged V8 that makes\u00a0592-horsepower and 457 lb-ft of torque.<\/b> It&#8217;s a revised version of the engine found in the 570S, though it&#8217;s not a revolutionary mill by any means. That doesn&#8217;t mean it lacks power, though <strong>Harris does note a bit of turbo lag.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That doesn&#8217;t hurt performance too much though, the car can sprint from <strong>0 to 60 mph in just 2.9 seconds, and then continue on to 124 mph in just 8.2 seconds.<\/strong> <strong>The top speed for this beautiful supercar is 204 mph.<\/strong> That&#8217;s not the fastest car out there, but it&#8217;s very, very quick.<\/p>\n<p>What seemed to surprise Harris the most was the playfulness of the car. It&#8217;s stiff chassis and suspension setup paired with its open differentials still allows the car to move around, and he seemed very pleased with it overall. <strong>Needless to say, McLaren&#8217;s 600LT is a car worth owning.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Could This Be The Best McLaren Track Car?
