McLaren 750S: 6 BIG Improvements Over The 720S | Top Gear

Yes, it’s another new McLaren supercar that looks… exactly like the old McLaren supercar. But the idea with the new 750S isn’t to blow the poor old 720S into the middle of last week. No, the game plan here is to take what was already one of the very finest supercars on sale and fine-tune its foibles. So there’s a little more power from the 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 here. And a little more bandwidth in the suspension there. More downforce. Less weight. But none of that matters. What’s crucial is that McLaren ups the fit and finish, irons out the foibles, and turns its brilliantly useable supercar into something you’d really fancy daily driving - even though it’s got more power than a P1 (minus the electric).
A tricky mixture to concoct. Top Gear magazine’s Ollie Kew has driven the 750S coupe on track and the Spider on the road to see if the British Ferrari rival has pulled it off.

I've always loved the looks, sound & terrifying speed of the Mclaren cars but there's very little discernible difference between the now 750S & existing 765LT. The performance numbers between these two are almost identical while the 765LT is 30 plus thousand more. I would take either one in a heartbeat, but I think they're too similar. Just my opinion.

@th3b0untyhunter 8 месяцев назад

Disagree. a 765LT is more focused, more raw. A 765LT will be better for trackdays, or a Sunday blast or an Alpine pass but not great for daily use and lacking some comfort or long road trips. However The 750S is useable day to day Takes everything that the 720S did well but removes its flaws. You could do anything in this and be happy (or so they say) even the aforementioned trackdays/blasts/Alpine passes but it won't be quite as good on those as 765, but will still be great.

@hent1438 8 месяцев назад

@@th3b0untyhunter I actually agree with much of what you said, and a good comparison would be the 911 GT3 & GT3RS. When you look at these two Porsches, there are noticeable differences between both iterations, even for those who aren't the biggest gearheads. Looking at the 750S & the 765LT, it's hard to distinguish them if you don't have the well-trained eye. It's why I really love the Senna. it's as raw a track car as they come, and looks like nothing else McLaren makes. I appreciate your response and point of view.

@th3b0untyhunter 8 месяцев назад

@VK6AB- is anyone saying otherwise ? But the fact is that little changes can make a big difference - and pretty much every person who has driven the 750S says its much improved. Odd though that no one whinges when Porsche bring out a .2 version of a GT3 or GT3 RS

@alexcepile1420 8 месяцев назад

This isn't a new version of a gt3 but a new car that looks just like the other 2.

@th3b0untyhunter 8 месяцев назад

@alexcepile1420 and so is a .2 version of a gt3 991.1 GT3 and 991.2 GT3 look virtually the same. Just a few changes, mostly under the skin but it drives better. Same situation here

Estoril is a great circuit, I just wish they upgraded it to a standard that major championships can race at. It dropped off the MotoGP calendar way back in 2012 due to lack of investment in track facilities, basically falling into disrepair. Once Portimao's Algarve circuit was completed, that was the end for Estoril.

I have driven a 720S on a paid car tour. And it was the most insane mental car I've ever driven. I drove the Ferrari f8 after the 720S and the Ferrari felt like I was driving smth normal. But that McLaren, it feels like it's out of this world. Especially the power, chassis, looks and the handling it was next level. Granted it wasnt put together with the most care but still a surreal experience

@AntEloftheHouseofEl 8 месяцев назад

Beautiful car. McLaren do make some absolutely wonderful driving machines it has to be said. They really do. The only place where I think they lag behind a lot of their competition are the interiors. Take something like an F8 Tributo for example. The interior is just a wonderfully sculpted, refined and elegant place to be, with the finest materials all mated together with the eye of an artist. Even Mercedes are miles ahead in their higher end cars. McLaren's interiors are still a little too humdrum for my liking yet, and it's something they need to work on. After all, realistically, the percentage of people who will buy a 750S purely for track days is extremely small. Yes, it's about the driving experience. But it's also about the living experience too. It needs to be a place people are happy to be in and happy to be seen in.

I admit I couldn't tell you one McLaren from the next - they all more or less look the same to me.

@i30N-HOM 7 месяцев назад

@mquin375 While you are not wrong, I can understand them. The development of different cars just costs sooooo much money. Every little piece is tested to exhaustion.

And well, they are if you compare price vs. performance to other manufacturers. But tbh... I'd still probably settle for a new Porsche instead
