I am currently on my 3rd and 4th McLarens. I LOVE these cars. I have a 720 Spider and a 765 LT Spider. They have been outstanding performers, and very reliable. Previously I had a 650 Spider and a 600 LT Spider. By the way, I agree that they should have Apple CarPlay!
hey bro, did you experience problems with the interior and trim panels while you were using the McLaren? I just wanted to buy a McLaren 720s coupe, before that I used a Mercedes Benz E63 AMG 🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@mzainrabbani8016 I have been happy with the McLaren interiors. They are obviously not going to be a Rolls Royce. Designed for very light weight and simple modern style. I had a 2015 E63S. Interior wasn’t great. Next gen is much better.
@@ianmacpherson8042 Wow, I'm very impressed with your opinion, I don't hesitate anymore to buy the McLaren 720s coupe unit😃 because I saw several videos showing the issue of the McLaren interior panels that loosen easily, in my opinion it depends on how we care for and use it, and it's not at all the fatal thing, even my friends who own Ferrari have many problems with the interior carbon trim layer which peels off easily😥 Oh yes mine is a 2011 E63 w212, at that time it was my first time playing a performance car, i took it because of the price cheap at the time and had a fairly large engine😁✌️ thank you so much sir🙏🏻
How much do you pay for extended warranty? That's what keeps me from owning one of these. I heard it was $5k-7K a year which is insane as other cars like GT3RS or 458 don't have that high of a maintenance
Hi Robert, im in the same situation. Just sold my Audi R8 V10 plus, now looking to purchase 720s. Are you not in doubt? I want the "batmobile" and racecar type drive. Porsche 992 Turbo S does not present that. But, the Porsche looks like the safest buy....
Great video! After testing a Ferrari F8 and a McLaren 720s by myself, even if you consider the Ferrari usually looses less value over the years: Go for the McLaren, it is an outstanding car, absolute high tech (frame, suspension, state of the art display, infotainment from my point of view is great except car play ... just compare it with the features of a F8)..., daily driver if you like. And I would suggest to take a good used 720s into account. Usually if there have been issues with sensors or control devices, these have been sorted already by the dealer. Therefore there is nothing more add to the statement of this video.

@@TCGRS Your numbers are the same I am taken into account. Still on factory warranty, but after that, it will be around what you have written. Porsche approved is cheaper, but the most high tech car is definitely the McLaren, worth every Penny, if I compare it with a 911, which I did and have had owned years ago.
I’m glad McLaren cars go down in value over time because it means that I will be able to afford one when I become rich 😁, my dream McLaren is a 720s, 570s, and a 765 LT
you are not he first one saying that mc larens are actually well put together and reliable. I think people are over exeggerating, even without owing or even driving the car. especially in the US i feel like.
Very nice review on your 720S. I just purchased a used 2020 Spider and agree with most of your points. Do you mind me asking what you’re replacing it with?
I think when people discuss depreciation, they are talking about what the dealer will give them on a trade-in, which is much lower. If a car depreciates 30% in 3 years, the dealer will probably try to offer you 50% off MSRP on a trade. Which is why I always consign.
From what I've discovered, one issue is that the engine isn't very forgiving of reving when cold (if it's done repeatedly) before oil has warmed up and you need to check that the oil level is okay regularly as again lots of wear if the engine is reved hard without oil. But as long as you do basic maintenance you shouldn't have problems (more than any other car - if not less). 30% depreciation is pretty good but like you say alot of money on an expensive car. Not having carplay/Android auto is poor on a modern car, wonder if they have it on the 750 :-)! Unlikely to ever be able to afford one but would love to have a Mclaren if I could!
I agree with everything you said. I have a 720s. My car is perfect. So many fake videos on RUclips. I use both my local mclaren dealer and an exotic car tech that comes to my house to do mods etc. he said without a doubt mclarens are without a doubt the most reliable supercar. Ferrari and lambos have a lot of problems. Guess that’s why the tech has not 1 but 2 mclarens in his garage.
hey bro, did you experience problems with the interior and trim panels while you were using the McLaren? I just wanted to buy a McLaren 720s coupe😁 Oh yes I want to ask if Ferrari has a lot of problems where and what kind? 🙏🏻
I'm in FCA and spent a fair amount of time with Ferrari owners. Not many report problems. Modern Ferraris are very reliable. I've had a 458 since 2018 and it has been rock solid.
@@MS-1994 lol. Nice try. Ask any mechanic that works on exotics and visit the Ferrari service department. They will tell you the many problems with Ferraris. Modern Ferraris have a lot of problems.
@@executiveinvestments Not at all my experience given many conversations with dozens of Ferrari owners at car events. Annual service is pretty much it for most. Best of luck...
@@MS-1994 yeah ok. Typical from someone like you. They are probably the most problematic exotic car on the market. Like I said go to the Ferrari service dept and you will always see plenty in there for problems. Or ask a mechanic that works on exotics. There is a reason why those mechanics don’t buy Ferraris.
We have the 2018 720s with sport package. We have made 100k just owning it lolol its great !! I think there is some vids on my channel of it. We also took a 2013 Dodge Ram half ton, lifted it. Took the hemi out and put a hellcat in it hehe. Also have a beautiful Dodge Ram srt10 ( 2004 ) two door of course. Had the four door for a big sound system but wanted the real deal and sold that for the “true viper truck” 😊

Having owned several porsche GT cars, the reason their warranties are cheaper is because the cars share 60-+% parts with all the other 911’s and some other models in the lineup. They also build 30 times more 911’s than 720’s. The level of performance between the two are also worlds apart. The higher the performance the more maintenance a car requires. A highly specked 911 GT3RS (not 992 models) still costs 75-100k less than a 720S spider. The 458 is a bad example to compare from Ferrari, the 488 costs the same for extended warranty. Maintenance cost is slightly higher due to the complexity of the car and how many pieces have to be removed to maintain it at each interval. Add to that that a porsche dealership will service 1000’s of cars per month while the McLaren service department might see 80-100 at max.
@@kinosgarage Thanks for the well elaborated explanation! In your opinion is the 991.1 GT3RS better than the 458?I'm debating between the two. I'm looking for good handling and carving the back roads. Im torn between the two in terms of exhaust. I want something that puts hair up on my spine lol
@@TCGRS sound like doesn’t define a car, at least for me. The 458 and GT3RS couldn’t be anymore different in terms of literally everything. Two diff purpose built cars. Handling and back road feel, the GT3RS all day! In term of reliability, the RS hands down. Sound wise with an exhaust the 458 wins; however the RS with a center bypass would sound really good. Hair on the back of your neck… 720s will achieve that along with superior handling, steering response (best in the industry) and will overtake both cars without a sweat.
Just save your money and keep it in a separate account in case you need it for repairs. Most won’t cost that much and won’t cover wear and tear anyhow.
I keep hearing they are superfast. They are not. I test drove one. Not that fast. Loses to porsche turbo and aventador in drag race by car wow. They are just not that fast.

No immediate replacement - I will seriously consider whatever McLaren comes up with as a replacement for the 720S at some point in the future.
@@drivers1224 that will be the 750. It’s scheduled for 2024.

Depreciation of 30% is better than almost all cars, thats as good as ide say you can get.
