Bad? It's a masterpiece of automotive engineering. How can that be bad? It annihilated every single contemporary car, and most of those coming out for the next 5 years. The only bad thing about the 720S is that I don't have one parked in my garage.

Everyone I personally know with a McLaren says they love it and haven't had any problems, but online people say they're a nightmare when it comes to fixing them. Overall, they seem like really awesome cars. Nice video!

Thank you for your review, I was confused with all the negative comments as well. Then I realized that most of the reviews are done by people that don’t own the car. They jump into the car for 2 hours and make comments. Everyone I know that owns a 720, including myself, don’t have issues with the negative comments because we live with the car. Thanks again.

Great vid! As a Mclaren owner i can attest to everything you said. I think a lot of people make those vids as clickbait. Cupholders, cameras etc ....ill drive my Mercedes if i need that kind of creature comforts. The Macs are made to be ultra high performance cars and they do that VERY well!

I have owned for McLaren 720 S spiders I must say, there are a lot of electrical quirks and also panel popping on the car. It's just a fact.

Saw something where someone explained that one thing you shoudl avoid with Mclarens is reving them when they're cold (repetitively) is likely to cause damage. All the other stuff seems to be small details for a car and people learning to know how the car works. Cupholders excepted....

I'm glad that someone finally has a "real" video on the pros and cons of this car. Every other video of things hated and loved really seemed to be superficial and more of just minor complaints. Thanks for taking the time to show what this car really is about. Great video.

Power seats: I just set memory 1 to be my far forward position for track, and 2 as my relax while sitting in the car position, and then push 1 or 2 until I have the spot I like in-between. Also, the controls are in a seat shape, so not that hard to figure out once you know them. For lack of glove box, the three areas (doors, center console) are plenty. This is basically a racecar after all. I love mine. I have over 15k miles on it after buying new. Definitely get the 360 park assist and lift for the easiest experience.

Thank you for sharing ~ Im considering 720s and its always good to hear both side of the story ~

Everyone's experience is different. I love hearing people that have/had 720's with no issues. That wasn't my experience. I started with the 600lt, and loved it! Had it for about a year and decided to swap up to the 720s. In many ways I'm glad that I did. The 720 was SO fun, and the power difference was noticeable! Which is something I wasn't so sure would be the case before I owned them both. The first 6 months of the 720s was pure bliss. However after that, things went downhill for me. The ECU burned out, a day after I got it back from service. Of course the ECU was covered, but it took about 8 weeks maybe longer, to get a new one shipped over from the UK. The car drove even better after the ECU, but then started having suspension failures. Then the windows stopped working. All in the span of about 2 months. At that point, I gave up on it and sold it. Having said that and having owned 2 McLaren's... The pro's of a McLaren is that it's a great drivers car. Great value in terms of the speed you're getting at the $250k+ price range. Most people are probably cross shopping to Lamborghini and Ferrari, and the McLaren is faster. However, the con's of McLaren that I didn't take into consideration, and at that time didn't even know to take into consideration.. are the lack of "Brand". (And the reliability concerns are very, very real). And what I mean by that, is if you own a McLaren, you're experience with the dealership/service department is like owning a Honda Civic except one that will potentially give you a new headache every 90 days. Whenever you need to to come in for service, it's entirely on you to get your car there and figure out a way home. Again, with McLaren being my first venture in the supercar world, I thought nothing of it. However, I traded my daily driver (GWagon) in for a new Urus. And that's when my eyes were opened. Lamborghini has a "Brand". They've sent 3 drivers out to my house for various reasons. I left a spare key at the dealership to my wife's car. They needed another signature on the contract. I couldn't figure out a certain feature.. Each time.. No problem, someone came to my house and took care of the issue. Upcoming service appointments? You guessed it, someone will come drive my car to the dealership and drop it off when it's done. The experience has been NIGHT and DAY.. Mind you, it's a Urus, not a Huracan. So I'm leaving reliability concerns out of it. Though so far, no issues on the Urus. But I can say, I wished I started my relationship with Lamborghini earlier, and bought a Huracan instead of the 600lt back in the day. One last thing on the "Brand" as well. Lamborghini flew me out for a VIP weekend at the Daytona 24hr race. Private jet, beachfront condo, catered food, open bar, hot laps before the race, paddock passes during the race, urus shuttles during the race for exploring the grounds.... Something McLaren hadn't done. And doesn't do from what I've heard from various owners. There's a sense of community lacking at McLaren. And that really is a shame. TL;DR - I won't be buying another McLaren. I will be buying more Lamborghinis.

Best super car I’ve ever owned. Had it for two yrs and even done our supermarket shopping in it. Brilliant car!

All I can say is that a friend of mine has ordered a brand new 720 Spider and the reverse already stopped working when unloading the car. Had to get it repaired and got it back like 2 months later. Other than that they‘re great (except for the gap dimensions), he had a 570GT, 600LT and the 720s and loved them all. Driving experience kn the 600LT was crazy

Literally the only problem I have had with mine (2018 Luxury model) was there was an error that kept telling me to take it back to the dealer. I left it with the mechanics overnight and it was gone. Nothing else.

My 720 has been the best car I’ve had so far. Only issue was with a company that installed some parts incorrectly. Other than that I like it better than my 600lt. Great video btw!

Do you recommend getting a warranty? I know CPO is only for a year

I have owned 4 of them. 720s, 620R, 765LT, and another 720s. I have driven the shit out of my cars and they have all been great. The only people that say bad things are internet little boys that have never owned one.

vs your 600 lt -- do you have more headroom with that door ceiling glass section?

Now that I know all the problems I'm going to run out and get one today.

It’s a race car built on a carbon tub. It doesn’t flex. Brakes are “harder” because they are real and not fly-by wire. The steering is hydraulic and best in business. Most people that complain about this car are used to buying “comfortable sports cars” and not true super cars. This is borderline hyper car level with its build and performance. I love driving mine and not had but one issue since I bought it (accumulators). Had the 765LT ones installed and zero issues after that. As you mentioned, being tall (I’m 6’2”) and wish I had the manual seats. If you keep the car plugged, you wouldn’t have any issues with CEL. The Lithium battery has a small processor attached to it that reads voltage and tells other systems what’s going on. If any of the sensors detect low voltage, they trip. Easy fix: turn the car off then back on. I daily mine and love it. It’s addicting and cannot see myself going back to a 911 after this. Traded a Huracan on my 720s and don’t regret it one bit. Thanks for the vid.

I had no problem with the 720s besides the quiet exhaust (Luxery Edition).The gas cover clip is flimsy. That's about it. Seat buttons are weird, but you don't need to touch them once they're set.

hi, I really like the 720 but all my friends and workshops keep telling me not to buy it due to serious reliability problems, it's the car of my dreams, in your opinion, since you know it well, can I buy it or better aim for something else? Hello and thanks from Italy

Wow, didn’t realize the buttons were that complicated 👍

I love my 720s just hate how low it is almost gotta fall into it & definitely no storage space

what about interior build quality? that seems to garner alot fo criticism

Thanks for the video my guy 🤴🏾💯👍🏽

love the posters in your garage

The biggest complaint about this car is the sand that gets stuck in the doors. It's annoying ASF. All the other aspects you mentioned are nothing compared to this flawed aspect to the car.

that let the electronics turn on before starting the engine, it's because the mclaren's engine turns the other way around, consequently, the rotation instead of pulling oil, expels it, so you should let the pumps turn on first

39k views in a year. hold the press! this guy must be worth listening to. Even the title to this video is pure make believe.

I want one after I sell the viper. Considering huracans are sitting above 200k for whatever reason and 720s are 220-230, I'd much rather the 720s all day. However, having it sit in the shop more than my garage is concerning

Ppl love to hate mclaren and i don't understand why. I mean yes, they had problems a few years back. But they're a 10 year old company and they've fixed most of the issues they use to have. Ppl are just repeating what they hear.

Hand built cars... I have the same with the gaps between panels on my car. It is what it is. Nice 720! Best of luck.

criticisms that I see a lot are the carbon fiber on the steering wheel, the plastic or carbon fiber parts that surround the center screen, engine overheating and catching fire out of nowhere. They are not very reliable cars, especially compared to the Lamborghini of the time, like a Huracan.

I love my 2021 720S. So far 7,000 mi & no problems. Panel gaps perfect. Just lucky?

I can relate to the break issue. It took me a while to get used to it on my 650s

Hey man no need anyone proof or explain for newbs or haters no have glu or idea of McLaren history 720s is key of supercar of McLaren sec is 765lt is big brother of family McLaren but true 720s is best very good car worth the money if u want faster is big brother 765lt killer machine. Guys u can't compare 720s vs anyone cars because the car for that level he beat alot cars vs stock or tuned no need proof is beast and 720s I like all design is good sec for me compare for race vs 720s is Honda NSX type s both is killer machine my favorite supercar or if u want go cheap go Artur hybrid McLaren very fast and good sound of that 720s from V6.

I love the 720 McLaren's.

I love your cap.

there not going be very fast stock compared to even my lowly fbe c7 but with a tune can get into the 9s or maybe low 9s

This car is amazing! Fast as hell! Damn everything else. The speed is why I love it. It's an exotic! I didn't buy it to be a Lexus!

Why do you need a cup holder on a sports car ffs?

Gotta go for Huracan Evo .

I just look at the 720s as a 4 wheel s1000rr in proportion to it's attention to build quality, track performance, road comfort, and acceleration.

You got a backup camera, you win lol

I lost you at the point that you said,"Andrew Tate taught you to start the car."😂

drove 1 to Grand Canyon - car was great and comfy - seat buttons do suck - rest of car was nice - not much potential to Mod compared to UGR not 1 mclaren was at Indy that was running 200mph which scks so prob pass but a great DD street car

Just get in it and drive one of the best cars in the world , look for the great things ,not minor faults , every thing has faults if you have the inclination to look hard enough !

I am always wondering who buys a McLaren for cupholders... If you drive it as it should be driven nothing will stay in anyway.

Noice

This is hypercar performance for supercar price

i wish i had those problems !

Anybody that can splash down $350,000 on a toy has no reason to complain.

not going be a good 1/2 mile or even qtr mile car compared to the TT lambo but good for a DD

Who the heck says 720s bad? Must be people that don't have one. Cause their frigging amazing

Manual seats save weight.

The electronics of this car is really bad

Soon….

All the problems you stated are minor to me except I have two Mclaren and the CAM PHASER WENT SOUTH AND NOT EVEN 10,000 MILES. THE ENGINE HAS TO BE REMOVED TO FIX THE ISSUE. SHIT THING ! Now that i was driving ACURA NSX --- have ZERO problem.

Dream carrrrrr😍

Yes, yes they are.

the word tool comes to mind when viewing, especilly when name dropping tate. gimme a dam break. birds of a tiny feather

noice, less snowflakes, ace GG

I have one, IMO the car is beyond gorgeous!

These are all extremely minor inconveniences but the main issue with these is that they're known to break down which is unforgivable. And the fact that Andrew Tate has three of these to negate inevitable breakdowns says it all. I'll wait for the update video in 6 months to 1 year lol

mclaren's interiors are so plain and ugly

The shift paddles follow the wheel which is retarded when you turn a lot on a windly road.

I havent seen many people say anything bad - on the contrary its universally regarded as amazing and far better and more reliable than Italian competition - your negative title is gonna put a lot of people off of watching your video

If you give a mf a 1 million dollars they would complain because they don't have 2,shit don't like it don't buy it make it simple

nice one bro Tell Me,....Dream car
