Pista or 600LT? Which would you take home?
Pista without a doubt
The McLaren... no way I could push either to its limits consistently, so the one with the best feel wins!
Pista Spider....the looks and been looked.
600LT. Those exhausts have already won me.
None of them, i'll take a 911 :)
As the title suggests Chris should be running on his feet
LOL
Great one
😂
@jon doe I get that C&H reference man!
😂 nice
7:37 this was probably the smoothest transition I've ever seem
yes. very decent one
@jon doe how was it horrible?
@Acesuprol 2107 he goes on every Top Gear RUclips video and says they're rubbish
did you want to say 6:33 ??? that shot is just so brilliant wow!

“The Mclaren windscreen is 2mm thinner, to save 1500grams”
Also Mclaren, our windscreens are cracking and need to be replaced...
It's related to the bounding material rather than the windscreen on itself.
The same for Ferrari, with the 458 Italia per exemple
@@cutdepiefails6596 Did you mean " *binding** material "?

jon doe
Clarkson is that you
720S, see you later Pista.
@@gutenbergpanaderolozano Nope, see you later McLaren. The pista ghas beaten this 720 too 😇. I have seen videos bro. McLaren has no chance against Ferraris, especially today's most powerful Ferrari F90 😎
Drifting car passes Chris, you don’t see that every day
powerrrrrrr
@jon doe Oh please, he's a much better driver than any of the host from that certain Amazon show.
@Truthisstrangerthan Fiction spot on but well choreographed action!
Truthisstrangerthan Fiction its can be turned off
@jon doe You do realize that Chris Races professionally on occasion? He has a gift from god when it comes to driving. Matt is good, but Chris can post some pretty up there lap times with some of the worlds best racing drivers
Harris : I'm getting more entertained in here
Ferrari: Passes in the biggest cloud of smoke in a perfect drift
Exactly. What a joke???!!!
Chris Harris: I'm being more entertained in here.
Ferrari driver sideways while overtaking him: really??
...I like him, but is beyond clear that he doesn't like Ferrari simply because it's a Ferrari... Totally biased. Don't like that... It's a waste of time and money.
@@Giuliano_Capecchi_SF perfect response from someone with your last name... lol
Giuliano Capecchi First time ever hearing Harris is Ferrari hater. He exposed Ferrari factually as a brand but that doesn’t mean he hates the cars. Everyone knows he is a Porsche and BMW fan boy, but don’t forget he traded his GT3RS 4.0 for a Ferrari and he has owned Ferrari FF as well. A Ferrari hater wouldn’t sacrifice a GTR3S 4.0 for a 599.
@@mikeypark2917 good point. I like Ferraris and won't hide that. But I appreciate when the test driver is honest and "impartial". In this case I sensed some lack of argument to support his point. Anyway, not saying that all F are faster or anyway better than Porsches or McLarens... Thanks for sharing! ... In my particular opinion, I think this car is a Masterpiece, because it can keep the pace of a 720s, having a more traditional, less extreme chassis and much more "maintainable" over time... (Carbon fiber chassis is much more unpredictable over time... Cracks, fatigue etc....)
@jon doe LMAO he undeniably is one of the very best car journalists out there
If I had that much money then I'll definitely spend a bit more and get the Ferrari. For it's elegance and beauty.
...and resale value.
That interior is definitely not elegant
I'd rather have a 458 Speciale.

@O 99 We Italians are the best. A small country that does more than all of America 😎
@O 99 And I realize it's the truth 😎
@O 99 The truth is that I woke up and it is the truth that we are the best. My country is better of yours
@O 99Who said you're from the US? Who is the idiot now? Anyway, my country is better because we have everything, especially the best food💪
@O 99 You are so idiot😂 . Keep writing, you entertain me
Ferrari all day 💯
@O 99 mclaren are crap!
@O 99 for what? Telling the truth mclaren are complete garbage,.. They can't even make they're engine, and BTW their carbon parts are also made in Italy by a company that also do for many brands.
@O 99 their 3,8 engine win 4 years consecutive the best engine of the year,.. Porsche, Mercedes all brands take components made in other nation or maybe better "in Europe" especially between Italy and Germany, but the most brand that actually doesn't build almost nothing by himself is mclaren they are the top notch, even transmissions.... Ferrari build almost everything by himself and if other components come from outside its really difficult that are from Germany but probably something is.. Lamborghini in other hand not really half but definitely is budget yes that one come from Germany and they are quite happy to have it since it grow a lot.! I don't know what could say for Aston Martin they are in a terrible situation I love their cars and style better than mclarens!
@O 99 I don't think so... Laf vs p1 depends on who drive as always i wouldn't never trust British comparisons they are like Americans everything that come from another country isn't good as them, on the other hand Germans are more fair.
@O 99 what??? Lmao I never saw Italians doing that, simply because we don't need to prove nothing but on the other hand British need always to prove themselves above the others mclaren is born to be the non Italian Ferrari, their constant is to be like a Ferrari, Americans.. Better say nothing they made even a movie were they beat Ferrari, but in comparison they're aren't even close to the same amount of Championship, come on case closed.
I rather have the Ferrari... Sorry :-P
Pista costs 350k the 600lt cost 250k, the 720s cost 320k I will take the 720s
@@zerohour2703 the 720 is an animal, but between the two in this video I'd take the Pista
@Steven Ross-watt that's one person's opinion. Lots of people have driven both. Plus, you shouldn't make up your opinion based on one person's opinion.
@Steven Ross-watt poor Who decides based on on the looks
@Steven Ross-watt yeah there doesn't need to be a "versus" though. You should consider all opinions and create your own. I'm looking at getting a BMW m4 and have done a ton of research and heard many opinions negative and positive. But I still won't form my own until I drive it myself
The MC Laren Better than the Pista what a British Joke 😂😂😂
Pista ΜΟΝΟ❤️🇬🇷
Driven both u r soooooo wrong , if you actual want the best drivers car then the McLaren wins, faster doesn’t mean better, it’s how the car feels when driving it , steering feel , braking cornering etc ,
McLaren is made in England tbf 👍
@@brentpowell7889 you are just complaining
brent powell Macalrens catch fire, flawed engineering, and low presence.
Not better but well engineered like P1 vs laferrari
When Chris says the Ferrari is not his choice and chooses a McLaren over it for pure driving pleasure something is terribly wrong!
Yeah like the Pista completely outperforms the 600LT both on a track and on a straight line, it's extremely comunicative and easy to drive, it's almost perfect! The Mclaren might be wonderful to drive, but so is the Ferrari and the Ferrari is a lot faster
McLaren paid chris...
McLaren is British just like him, guys he prefers what's more familiar, thats his taste, he knows the Pista is faster and better but the 600LT is cooler IMO
He’s driven both and he has his preferences
People have different tastes. He didn’t necessarily say he thinks the Mclaren is a better car. He just likes the way it drives better
Ferrari ❤️
Never mind all this Ferrari and MacLaren stuff, give us Chris Harris and Henry Catchpole.
jon doe u must be out of your mind. Look up his older reviews before Top Gear. Best car review content i have ever seen tbh.
@jon doe you're joking right?
@jon doe U a troll.
Dumb dumb is trolling😂😂
Ferrari always ❤
Love the 488 Pista. The looks are amazing!
I love it how Ferrari shunned Chris Harris early in his career because he wrote an honest review, but now they have had to cave and give him cars to review. Go Chris😁
Ferrari is like self-ego-stroking like that. Their list of leaders/CEOs/leadership often act upon this.
They give cars to Top Gear to test. That's thee difference. Chris has his own Ferraris in the past.
@@stubones he still has his 512TR
It was a brave move - and one that sets Chris apart from many reviewers.
Yes... lol ... clearly the most powerful car brand in the world is in dire NEED of Chris Harris... my God... use logic for a change man... you think Ferrari are giving Chris Harris cars because they are afraid of the awesome journalistic power he has to destroy their sales? .... i mean wow...
I do not know what is true. THEY LOST THE CREDIBILITY COMPLETELY. NOW THEY ARE A SIMPLE PUBLICITY
here is the truth:
Pista 7'00''03 - ruclips.net/video/nblOLdCUzA0/видео.html
600LT 7'08''82 - ruclips.net/video/K_0tK-jI_qA/видео.html
9 sec slower.
Hi girl me
Excellent film work once again! It’s just a delight to watch these videos! Perfect combination of slowmotions, details, dolly zoom and everything else in under 10 minutes 👌
Can any one please tell me name of the Paint colour done at 600 LT i want to spec out the same one in future
I’m a Ferrari man for life. That Pista is gorgeous
@O 99 still has a distinct look, unlike McLarens they all look the same for years cant distinguish which model is which?? They all have the same dam front.
@O 99 Are you shrink wrapped?!! Ferraris literally go up in value where McLarens drop their value faster than they go 0-60. What do you mean they age better?!! If they aged better they would go up in value.
@O 99 If they age better why dont they go up in value? They drop their value faster than any other supercar brand..........
@O 99 That doesn't sound as a car that"ages better". And I'm not hollow head you simply didn't word it correctly. You said they age better meaning the whole car, you never said their "look" ages better. You implied "they" age better meaning the whole car so you're the hollow one here.
@O 99 no that has nothing to do with it. They all look generic and drive generic. The F1 went up in value why? Not because it's an old classic brand no. It went up in value because it looks different and most importantly it drives different. The modern McLarens all look and drive the same.
"It doesn't have to be night and day Chris", and you know it.
The sound, the sights, the script, the whole enchilada was as close to perfecto in what I want to see in car vid entertainment as I have seen. Nice work, nice work indeed. Chris Harris and everyone involved in making this vid, over the top perfection. Turn up the volume if you really want the full viewing experience.
A state of excellence in motor vehicle reviews, amazing video none come close to Mr Harris. Two amazing cars brought to life, shown there potential in the best way possible.
Not sure I can believe any of Top Gears results.
Not anymore !!!
The 600LT will never give you the pleasure that you'd get from simply looking at th Ferarri
So True
Two different cars for two different types of car guys. One's for rich passionate car enthusiasts and the other for track focused car enthusiasts
Love the B&W Diamond tweeter on the dash 🎶🎶🎶
Chris Harris is the best automotive journalist out there today. Love his transparency and how he really hammers the cars to test results! As a 458 owner I would be curious what Chris thinks about the raw naturally aspirated experience of the 458 versus today's new turbo variants of the 488.
At 5:00 the McLaren is clearly in front but at 5:01 the pista is
I think that's because Chris jumpstarted by a bit,
If you're trusting top gear for any objective review you should stop doing so
Chris Harris is a gem, Top Gear should do whatever it takes to keep him.
5:03 I love that moment
Man I miss the Harris/Carey team and their great video work. This reminds me of the good old days before Top Gear interrupted the great imagery and reporting Harris and Carey brought forth. I guess I'm going to have to get cable so I can go back to enjoying the great cars and the great sarcasm these two delivered in spades.
4:55 start
Just feels so unnatural to see Chris doing these bits for TV. I'm disappointed this wasn't a 'Chris Harris Drives' comparison test.
Armando Alves he’ll do one on each car or maybe together on his online top gear car review show. Keep an eye out and it’ll show up soon very likely. This is the TV bit not the RUclips bit
Agreed, this over scripted format doesn't do any justice to his talent. Then there's also a degree of hypocrisy when one considers how the man himself made it known that he wasn't that interested in supercars anymore.
It's interesting how TG seems completely unable to move away from Clarkson's style of reviews, when Clarkson himself chose not to pursue them anymore with the The Grand Tour.
This one is done to satisfy us yanks that want to see drifting and smoke haha.
Drifting car behind Chris “I’m getting more entertained”😂😂
Let him writte his own text, this was like chris acting jeremy
The cinematography is just insane!! Total eye candy! This is one thing Top Gear was always, and still very much is, great at.
They're also great at defamation.
The Ferrari has an Italian license plate which leads me to think it was brought to the review with a full engineering team
And mclaren with british number plates..soo..maybe it means something also 😂
Alekos Alekou @ don’t forget it was on their development track 💁♂️
I took a good look at the 600LT recently (did a little review too) and I love it. It's just perfect.
These are the clips that we all love! This is what will make history... how will the future electrical car reviews be able to transfer the same emotion...
i sense a return of 2010-2013 top gear production 👀
Ye. I've been rewatching too gear usa and now I get this recommended.
Ferrari is king the end.....
What does that mean
Did you forgot 720s😂
Which number did you use this time ?
Ferrari its missing the sound, with turbos the car Ferrari lose charm. Long live naturally aspirated 💪
458 pista its Better
Those exhaust flames @ 5:55 😻😻
That sold me right there.

@@ueehurstonsecurity8887 Not buying one, if I were, the answer would be yes you could have a ride 😂😂😂
I wonder where mclaren got the idea for those wheels? Lol
Track focused Supercars are only really useful if the valet parking at your local casino has a race track attached.
Which one was in comfort mode for this test?
488 vs 720s = Fair Test

the hell are we talking about, just look at how beautiful the 488 Pista is, plus its gonna be good money in the future compared to that 600LT
Love it but at the collector prices these and the Speciale fetch, most are hardly driven nevermind actually hooned on track.. Im looking at the new Corvette Z06 replacement to be a much more utilized track weapon.
last time i was this early Chris harris still had hair on his head
whoa!
btw, what did the earth look like when dinosaurs were alive?
they are bringing him back because of the big lie, Porsche taycan, vs tesla p100D
Still not a good as the ‘Chris Harris on cars’ videos.
What's the song at 3:27?
Not considering the fact that the Pista looks 1000 times better than the 600lt
3:27 I mean.. It's really not, but.. ok I guess
One is beautiful, and is not the green one.
Green? What green?
You may need to have your eyes checked princess. The McLaren is not green.

Why are the episodes for top gear tv show so much overkill??? You should just use “Chris Harris on cars” episodes.🙈
I can’t wait for the new Grand Tour special!
I'm a simple man...I see the name "Chris Harris" on a car video, and I click.
That Ferrari has a soul, while that Maclären..looks like appliance
It's funny but I got the opposite impression - Ferrari seems like a computer on wheels, the McLaren wants to connect you to the road
I think you can connect to road in these cars when you run on a bumpy road. You will feel the connection to road and pain
True story
None of them has a soul. Just machines that makes those who can afford them have a good time. Personally I'd take the McLaren.
Great old Clarkson comment there 🙄🤢
where are the laptimes tho
Watching this video wants me to work even harder to afford such cars.
Waiting for a lightened and more powerful LT version of the 720S, that would be wicked.
It's already being developed. It's going to the 750LT apparently
Isn't that kinda what the Senna is. The 720s is soo close to the Senna that a long tail version wouldn't be smart for them to produce.
@@rooseveltsims5676 Senna is under the Ultimate Series. Not exactly fair, if you ask me.
@@rooseveltsims5676 they are going to price it at way less, im guessing around 450k
stubones @ article? I have heard so long about this 750lt and still don’t see anything
I feel like he's been sponsored by Mclaren or something. He tested both cars and proves that the Ferrari's a better Supercar, but still picks the Mclaren. Might be associated with the typical British nationalism.
Do you drive for pleasure? or the piece of paper to say you did the fastest lap?
My car has 800hp and pulls 1.4g's constant in cornering, my wifes has 200hp and pulls 1.3g's cornering. Yeah mines faster and lap times are WAY lower. But id rather take my wifes car because its lighter, more nimble and A LOT more fun to hook into the corners, plus you don't spend half your time on the brakes trying to wash off the speed.
Most supercars are just way too fast these days theres no need and nobody who buys them is using them to their potential. So who's actually faster anyway? The guy who knows more about cars and picks the car that gives him the most rewarding drive and who actually drives real race cars and knows his shit? or the rich dude that would crash if he turned the traction control off?
Typical British nationalism? How about typical world based Brit bashing. Rattled your cage that the uk makes great cars doesn’t it?
Because overall the McLaren is better

At 7:02, they nearly showed Chris (or whoever was driving) losing control of the mclaren, but they cut that clip down lol

McLaren's exhausts spits the flames but it's the Ferrari's that actually made out of Inconel!! What an irony!!!
Definitely enjoyed watching this video!
British media live in a different reality
When Chris is in, you know is going to be an amazing video!
If you Chris Harris the Speed Runs to You 😂😂😂
Great content as usual, however, Isn't the 675LT a better competitor for the 488 Pista or am I mistaken.
Pista. No need to worry about the car plummeting in value. It might even be an investment.
Like all the special editions of their V8s they do become a great investment...because they make very few of them...under 1 thousand.
Usually anywhere between 500 and 700.
Thing is you gotta buy them when they hit bottom (around 70k €) then hold on to them for a long long time...which gets expensive because you gotta service them regularly even if you don't put miles on them.
I have a friend who does just that.
Can Ferrari like do some serious mileage and still be good?
But Chris Harris tells you that those 65,000 pounds are not worth it man! haha. Ofc I agree with you and Chris is a bit biased not to mention what a better investment of your money is that Pista with those extra 65,000 pounds... you pay extra for the extra value. Simple as that. Pista is going to have a mighty value for years to come. McLaren LT will plummet as you very well said.
Matija Grabovac absolutely. With regular check-ups they can do many miles without problems. Granted, the owners don't use them much, but I've seen a lot of F430 s with 70-80 k kms still running perfectly.
@@zeusus12 They will run better if you drive them regularly than if you let them sit in a garage. And modern Ferraris (458 onwards) are apparently quite reliable. The resale value probably takes a dive if you get too many miles on it though.
The new benchmark for the track-focused supercar.
McLaren Senna: "Do I look like a joke to you?"
El yes, it does look like a joke
@@614onlygaps lmao why do people rag on the Senna's looks? I love it, frankly. I do think that it's jarring, especially if you've spent countless hours looking at something like the 720S. However, seeing it prowling on the track, low-slung with that bird-cleaving wing, gives me a thrill.
El @ it’s the fastest trackcar for shure, but it’s the ugliest aswell😂😂
@@matzepizzaheld8541 aw come oooon.
7:17 *Uh! Good old times!*
The 650S competes with the 488. Should've been the 675LT instead. Still another great Chris Harris video.
458 v. 12C
488 v. 650S
F8 Tributo v. 720S
488 vs ?
That McLaren surely looks gorgeous 😍🔥🔥💯
And with a little tuning on the 600LT it can be made, on the cheap, as fast as the 488
That LT sure has a lot of tricks up its sleeve. If only it had an LT.
Beside the Test, the hole Video is super intense, hast some good scenes and looks great. Awesome job there and of course good content. I couldnt choose between the ferrari and the mclaren. both are insane cars.
Awesome color on the 600LT!

5:35 - 6:01 this is what I want to see on Forza before I leave my house
But the McLaren has billionaire doors. The PIsta with a novitec kit is godly looking and sounding
600LT is one of my favorite new cars. Love to see a 720 GTR or LM smack the pista and go to Lemans though!
can't help myself: I see Chris Harris, I click like
Could you imagine already having a Pista before the reviews hit the internet?? Hearing about it via word of mouth is even slightly cool.
That 600 LT needs Dragtimes to be behind the steering -wheels
Reminds me of old Top Gear presentations with Clarkson; entertaining but very scripted. Personally, I think Harris is best when left mostly to his own designs.
but clarkson had skill from experience... chris just from his stunt driving.... it a car show.... i take what i can...
