The McLaren enthusiasts ask for by name, built around a suspension that reacts to the road in two milliseconds.
The McLaren 720S is a two-seat, mid-engine supercar built around hydraulically interlinked dampers that read the road and adjust in two milliseconds, removing the need for anti-roll bars altogether. Enthusiasts ask for it by name, usually a renter who has already had a Lamborghini or a Ferrari and now wants the car other car people respect most.
The 720S soaks up a broken street and stays flat through a fast corner in the same half second, with hydraulic steering feeding every nuance of the road into your palms. That range makes it a car for a long drive taken on purpose rather than a quick loop before dinner.
The McLaren 720S is the McLaren that enthusiasts ask for by name, often a renter who has already had a Lamborghini or a Ferrari and now wants the car other car people respect most of all. It suits long drives taken on purpose, since the ride genuinely permits a full day behind the wheel rather than a quick loop around the block before dinner ends. It is also the choice for anyone who wants the loudest visual statement of any McLaren body style, the glasshouse and the doors together, without stepping all the way up to the steeper 750S day rate just to get it.
McLaren sold the 720S in two body styles and capped the Super Series with the 765LT above them. The named specifications on the order sheet changed cabin materials, never the car. We run both body styles.
The McLaren 720S Coupe is the fixed roof car and the lighter of the 2 we run, with a 4.0 liter twin-turbo V8 making 710 hp, a folding driver display and an airbrake that doubles as a wing. Ours carries McLaren Special Operations content, which means paint and parts applied well beyond what a standard build sheet holds.
The McLaren 720S Spider adds a folding hardtop that opens or closes in 11 seconds at up to 31 mph, with a rear window on its own switch so you can run the roof up and the window down. We run a Spider as well. It gives up part of the coupe's rear luggage shelf to the roof mechanism.
The McLaren 765LT is the Longtail version of the 720S, roughly 176 pounds lighter at 755 hp, with quad-exit titanium exhausts, a longer front splitter and more aggressive aero. It was built in coupe and Spider bodies in strictly limited numbers. We do not run a 765LT, and it is the hardest car on this platform to find anywhere.
