My god, Chris Harris' reviews are amazing. The way he goes through all the options, different ride settings and so on, I now finally understand the complete concept of the McLaren MP4. Thank you Chris, very very well done.

As for the car, I like it. I really like it. If it is exotic enough? Without having driven one, my answer is a clear YES.

Now, did it hurt his relationship with Ferrari and other manufacturers? Probably, as now they now know he won't stick his head up anyone's ass to ensure he's one of the first to drive the next press car.
Well said. Other Jurnos are now being critical of Chris calling out Ferrari like that, but people these days seem to hate telling the truth.

I want one. I obviously haven't driven this or a 458 but I think I'd take this if I had the choice.

One of the best if not the best car reviewer of today. As for the car I love it, but as with i think most people it doesnt seem to give you that feeling of what a car like this should do...give you one hell of a smile on your face when u drive it.

Review needs less beard close-ups...

He did a better job of describing the different settings though.
