Got the magazine but very limited time to do some detailed translation for a once. To make it short : the 675LT did the best lap time on the circuit, 1 sec better than Z06 Z07.
Tested McLaren is not a press pool vehicle, but a private car from a McLaren Forum French member.
Disappointing results for the GTR on the circuit, not better time than a standard GTR.
McLaren won all categories (Engine, Performances, Road, Track).
Still impressive comfort for this type of car, better in the most extreme setting than the Nissan in comfort (well, it never was a reference for comfort though !)

The Queen will need to Knight the men who designed the 675LT!

Probably these guys used automatic gearbox too much, and forgot how to shift manual (bad Z06 0-100 time)

It's way too difficult to launch the manual Z06, because of the ultra-sticky tyres. The fastest (proper) 0-100 kph time of the car is 3,8 s from AutoBild Sportscars.

(That's 3,3 s in US-language with rollout and other nonsense calculations... )

What about Mclaren's tires? Pirelli Trofeo R? Thanks

 

[F40 LeMans]

675LT's speed is te same as the F1. Same 0-100 and approx the same km speed. Interesting is to see how electronic gearbox improve.

 

[Switar]

100 - 200 is a full second faster than F 1. Fantastic acceleration

For Nissan GT-R Nismo is Nurburgring in 7:08, then how would the Macca 675LT?

 

[Switar]

I think 7.08 for a really stock Gt R nismo is fantasy

First of all, I think the time is for the "Nismo Track Package". They did a 8:20 lap with a 280 hp R32 (and limited to 180 km/h, if stock) in the late 80's/early 90's!

But in the same time, both that and this car were testing vehicles that have nothing to do with production cars

The 675LT flies. But I still expected a bit more in the straight line considering results of 650S and price wise, the car is more of an Aventador competitor that 488/Huracan competitor.
