The twin-turbocharged V8 surges to its redline with the force of a tidal wave yet with near-zero turbo lag and a howl that pierces through your senses. Gearshifts are rapid and intuitive; the car is always in the right gear before you realize it needs to be.What truly sets it apart is the Proactive Chassis Control II suspension—eschewing traditional anti-roll bars for a hydraulically linked setup that reads the road 1 000 times per second. The result? It corners like a scalpel yet rides with the grace of a grand tourer. The steering—hydraulically assisted—is telepathic reminding you how numb electric racks have become in rival exotics.Everyday Usability & ComfortUnlike many of its rivals the 720S doesn't ask you to suffer for your supercar thrills. Visibility is shockingly good thanks to the teardrop-shaped glasshouse and ingress/egress is aided by high sills and wide door openings. The cabin is elegant intuitive and ergonomically sound. Even the luggage space—5.3 cu ft in the front trunk—is enough for a weekend getaway. Drive it through downtown cruise down the coast or brave your morning commute—the 720S adapts never complains and always thrills.Performance vs. CompetitionFerrari 488 GTB? Stunning yes—but down on power lacking McLaren's chassis sophistication and can't match the sensation of the folding driver display or hydraulic steering.Lamborghini Huracán Performante? Visceral and loud but lacks the ride refinement and interior elegance of the McLaren.Porsche 911 Turbo S (991.2)? Incredibly quick and polished but more of a high-speed tool than an event.Aston Martin Vantage? Gorgeous and luxurious but it simply can't hang with the 720S in outright performance or precision.Audi R8 V10 Plus? Glorious sound and everyday manners but the 720S is in a different league when it comes to weight aero and track pedigree.In the end the McLaren 720S is the rarest kind of supercar—a machine that delivers hypercar performance artful aesthetics and daily livability in equal measure. It's not just fast—it's a revolution wrapped in carbon fiber.ConclusionThis 2018 McLaren 720S Coupe—cloaked in the deep coastal shimmer of Muriwai Blue and adorned with a richly tailored Saddle Brown cabin—is not just a car; it's an occasion.
