Took a drive yesterday afternoon. Man was nice just to drive, look at the view and take a moment to think things over.

As for the car, what's not to love? :) Comfort and performance rolled up into one. Pretty leisurely drive but man the car eats up windy roads! Great fun.

Car looks great against the backdrop. Does she have a full-body matte wrap on her? Looks unique and good on her!
Yes, that's a matte wrap. I got it pre-owned and it already had the wrap so I'm not sure where it was done but they did a very good job on every panel. The actual paint color is the McLaren silver (arctic silver it might be called) but I like the matte green/gray color and the overall look.

This is the first car I've had with a wrap. It's good and stays clean for a long time which is nice - I got "special" matte car wash (that doesn't have any silicon or polish in it) and use that and also got a "matte conditioner spray" for between washes but other than that, am not doing anything special to it. There is however a gogtcha and it's a big one: you scratch it, it's scratched forever! So, I took a mate's mum for a ride and she held onto the door jam to get in - the ring she had on scratched the wrap and every time I open the passenger door I see it. And I have one stone chip in the front bumper that bugs me. Other than that though, it's great.

There's another shot over here: McLaren 570GT Photo Thread
