McLaren 720S vs 570S quirk comparison + adding CarPlay to your VW with RCD330 radio review

The McLaren 720S and 570S share many features, yet they offer distinct experiences even when stationary. Both models boast a twin-turbo V8 engine, with the 570S featuring a 3.8-liter and the 720S a 4.0-liter engine. Despite both having upward-opening doors, the door handle placement differs, particularly with the 570S Spider convertible variant. Gear selectors vary between the models, as does the unique folding dash gauge display on the 720S, a first for its class of supercar. In another realm of upgrades, the RCD330 Radio for the MK6 GTI and Golf stands out for creature comforts, enhancing the car's experience with features like Android Auto, purchasable on platforms like Amazon. For installation, tools such as a Torx T20 screwdriver and a plastic trim removal tool come in handy. Adding Apple CarPlay or Android Auto can modernize your car by a decade with a simple DIY installation in less than 30 minutes. While the older unit's built-in navigation is missed, apps like Waze, Google Maps, and Apple Maps work excellently.

These 11 cars could shoot up in value in 2026, according to Hagerty’s number-crunchers

Every year, the valuation analysts at Hagerty sift through mountains of sales data, insurance trends, and buyer behavior to spot the cars most likely to climb in value. Think of it as the stock market’s “buy low, enjoy high” list, but for people who prefer tachometers over tickers. For 2026, Hagerty’s Bull Market List leans heavily into ’90s and ’00s machines—the final chapter of the analog era, when modern speed still paired with manual transmissions and minimal electronic interference. But a few older icons made the cut, too, proving there are still smart buys in every decade. Here’s what the data says are the 11 appreciation-ready enthusiast cars to watch.
