Move over 488 GTB and the new 911

The brand new 675LT has arrived, and we can finally share what the Black Swan Movement was all about.

First let me dazzle you with the specs, straight from McLaren

All of that, is very impressive. Enough for me to say it can truly compete with the Huracan, a car I myself drive and enjoy.

Not only does it have the power and the flair, but man, is it pretty. Updated aesthetics over it's sibling the 650S. I can assure you, unlike the 488 GTB, the renders reflect the actual product.

I actually already enquired about this car, and have a major interest in it.

For those of you in the market for a car like this, because I know there is a few (we all have our secrets) I invite you to visit McLaren's website and drop a request on the interest page.

Looks nice, not sure what to say. Second car after the P1 by the team, that has made me giddy.

So when are you going to deck out the whole forum with new cars?

We need new rides, you got the money.

Anyway seriously though it looks nice aesthetically. On the other hand though how low is the car can it be raised a bit?

It's quite low, 3 feet from the ground when your sitting. In terms of straight from them I'm not sure you can raise it. Unless the car has an option within it's settings, but it won't be a large increase. If raising it is a main concern, and it doesn't have a feature or it isn't suffice, you can always raise it aftermarket

Point taken, the main issue is if i did buy a car i would use it quite regularly and it would have to deal with bumps and random shit. Why i prefer cars having a little height to them.

You can have a low car with comfortable suspension. I've only ever had trouble with the P1, but that was because it was in Track Mode. You can drive normally, aside from having to be very careful with speed bumps. But for the most part, it's a normal experience on that end
