Autocar: McLaren 675LT versus GT3 RS
Trending Topics

Excellent and well worth reading. Wonder if the 991 RS will be the first one in years to NOT be EVO car of the year?......As I recall, the 6RS, 7.1,7.2 and 4.0 were all the winners. To be fair, the Macca is twice the price though.

Thank you - actually helped me rationalize the fact that I couldn't get an RS allocation and had to "settle" for a GT3. It's much easier to rationalize when you aren't given a choice.
Sounds like the RS "goes to 11."

Call me jaded, and I'm going to buck the trend here but... Once you get past all the pretty pictures and awesome green paint, this article sucks. More useless noise, and pretty pictures to sell the magazine.
They have the rare opportunity to test the cars on the same day, same driver at the same track, don't take ANY performance measurements, no numbers, nothing, nada. Same useless "data sheet" that we've seen 80 times already.
They write enough nice things about each car so that either side can feel vindicated that their manufacturer/car is better while not taking a real stand.
Hey Look! More 4-wheel drifting of a $400K car!
Useless...
I see a worrying trend appearing: more & more "tests" not being comparison tests (as in same-day-same driver) tests. Allowing those manufacturers, those who choose to at least show up (unless they can be sure a win cough*Ferrari*cough) to allow for endless debates and millions of posts about tires, track temps & ECU/suspension tuning. Have we ever seen a real comparo between the P1, 918 & LaF? Thought so. I have a feeling the "junior" supercars will begin to follow the same pattern as manufacturers are either unwilling to risk too much on one test, or...ahh hell...I'm waisting my time here probably.

No one buys a car magazine to analyze Excel spreadsheets.
