Should I buy a McLaren 720S? Well it may be a cliché title for a TH-cam video but actually it's quite significantly of interest to me. I do not intend to sell my McLaren 675LT Spider any time soon but I am rather interested in experiencing more with the latest car in the Super Series, the 720S. What do you think?
Shmee150 entirely your decision man, if you enjoy the driving experience and you could see yourself with living with one. I say why not if you are as impressed as you are! 👍🏻
Heard the news of McLaren testing like the hardcore version of the HS, but wrapped in one of those camos where you can't see the true shape. But it has a crazy wing, almost looks like a 650 GT3.
He has so many cars it doesn't make sense. Doesn't make sense how he makes any profit with the insane taxes over there. What was the point of the vanquish?!?
Your LT is better because... 1. it's a spider 2. it's more special 3. it looks better 4. it sounds better 5. too many youtubers have one (mrjww, tgi) Althought the 720s is a nice car
First of all "looks," is subjective, my friend. Not everyone will agree with you that the LT Spider looks better. Secondly, why does "looks" have to matter so much? I, mean, this a SUPER CAR.....People buy it for its PERFORMANCE. Are you considering buying a super car just to admire its "looks," or to help you feel better about yourself? Just asking!
Max Kayser Well, that's you. And I respect your opinion and choice. But, for me, It is the performance of a car that really matters. And I don't judge according to "looks." Why? Because the looks of an object (and even that of another human-being) can't really do anything for me.
Tim, from my perspective, if you like Drama, that's what your GT8 is for. The 720s is for the bloke working on Downing street who wants to peacock with his doors up. Great car, but too redundant in your garage.
Hi Tim, I thought you had one on order? Get the boost turned up on your LT, that's all the 720 is a makeover with the boost turned up. Make your LT faster than a 720. Cheers.
What you and most people don't understand is that mclaren is only allocating the LT version to people who have bought a 720s. If that wasn't the case I'm sure he would just do as you said and wait till the LT version is released
Ben Farrow Not true, James(Mr JWW) got his LT without owning a 650s or any other McLaren. Maybe you are talking about the P1 GTR, that was only available to P1 owners
'Needs an exhaust system'... :P Otherwise, pretty cool car! Just now that autumn is upon us, I'd be very worried about scooping out leafs and twigs from all those ducts and openings and such. Or maybe the idea is that you accelerate soooo fast that they won't stay there for long. xD
At 2:27 Shmee walks around and whips out the slimmest of keys/fob...My anxiety was stuck at who's idea it was to park so close to a drain vent on a right-handed car
It's not aimed of pulling on the heart strings Tim. It's a true super GT. or best alround supercar. If you look at you're fleet it would sit perfectly in there. We all know the LT is coming later but how many cars do you want with big wings and loud exhast. The 720s is a stealthy weapon to have. Wish I could review one for a week for you
Obviously don't buy it. That is one thing I like about you is you actually use your brain in buying things. These other TH-cam guys buy whatever they feel like and lose insane amounts of money on it. You at least actually think about it being a good or bad decision first.
From mp412c just a few years ago, to this. What a great company because they don't have cheap cars to make money like VW AG, nor rich history of road cars like Ferrari, but anyway they make as good cars or even better than Ferrari or Porsche. Mclaren has my big respect but I would never buy it 😁
But Tim the main point is that it's the replacement for the 650s. So comparing it to the LT is kinda not the intention. You should probably get one but only till the time they don't get the hardcore stripped out version. That will be really good fun.
If you want a car that you can travel with and makes a lot of sound, I have a Camry with a busted exhaust that can set off car alarms wherever I drive. Or maybe just record some clips on a USB stick and play them back on the 1200W sound system. If you're not feelin' it Tim, maybe you shouldn't buy it. But I think you're missing the whole point about the car. I think the performance numbers were a bit, well, understated. I think Robert Melville is a design genius. And I think the 720S is so good, that we're just no able to comprehend today how good it actually is, but I feel there'll be a lot of auto makers borrowing from its design elements (if they haven't done so already...) and in the future we may say that this was the one that started the new phase of supercars...
A wise suggestion to say buy a depreciated one and has fixed the issues. And an exhaust is definitely the first mod and probably the only one you need.
I don't know it this has been asked before, but have you ever considered buying a Caterham? A 620R, for example. Your Morgan was so unique, I think a new lightweight car would be a good choice.
The looks in front are slowly growing on me but Tom, if you love the car enough to buy it like you need it in your life then buy it. Just spec it with an unusual color like Orion purple
I'd love to see where these alleged McLaren 720s owners are posting their cars for sale. I've only heard good things from 720s owners. Being a current owner of a 675 LT and 570s, I cannot see where the 720s could go wrong.
La Esco Blanca How do you mean it is not a pretty car? It may not be not to you! But your taste doesn't represent everyone else's. Personally, I think this is the best looking supercar McLaren has ever design and built since the F1.
I like the shapes and the aggression of the body and I like the performance numbers but what is that exhaust note? Not the same passion as the exterior suggests. My bet is the LT will be awesome.
You can't buy anything when you're a millionaire unless you want to go broke. you still have to manage your money.. these cars depreciate very quickly so you have to take that into consideration..
Sachin Krishna don't say sorry.. lol I was just saying basically no matter how much money you have if you're reckless with it you will go broke eventually.. taxes and other expenses are no joke and if you don't play your cards right money will disappear quit quickly..
Don't you have one already? Or it might be a model with another name but look exactly the same. So, as I've said before, I don't understand this bounded relationship to british manufacturers you seem to have since it's a so small part of the whole supercar spectra.
I know, but my point is still that a bigger proportion of your cars and the cars you want to buy is british comparing to how the complete world of supercars look like. I've been trying as good as I can to show this before with percents and so on, but it seems like I don't reach success.
supremefantastic well he is British himself no? Seems fine to me for someone to favor cars from their home country especially when they are as beautiful/capable as those that Shmee has lol
marvelvsdc13 - Yeah, I agree with that's quite normal. I'm swedish so I may have a stronger feeling for Koenigsegg, Volvo and Saab than people generally :)
Hi Tim! Saw this car in person at Mclaren Klassikstadt Frankfurt. It really looks awesome in that colour! But there's one thing I totally don't like: This cheap looking Speedometer! It ruins the cockpit look... They should re-design this! Besides that it's a beautiful car! I'm sure this engine is capable of 800+ hp with some tweaks... ;-)
Harry Wright I've only had one. Really good engineered car; comfortable and easy to drive. Judging a car based on "personality" or "soul" just seems rather silly me.
I'm a Ferrari guy and the first time I saw the 720 I thought it wasn't so pretty. Ok, she has the "space ship performances" of an hypercar, but not the touch. I change my mind. The more videos I see the more this car appear me freaking cool... I need to see one in flash to fall definitely in love. Shmee, get one pliz. And also upgrade the FF with a Gtc. Or better get an 812 Stupidfast. 😁😁😁
I think you should buy one new and keep it long term, 10 years or more so you don't have to worry as much about the miles. It's such a great car that will be on the cutting edge for a long time and you would have it right at the beginning of that.
"I think this car looks really good ... when you get familiar with it." :D When you have to explain design it isn't good by definition. And you sound as if you try to convince yourself that it is looking good. I think it is rather ugly in front and super lame in the rear it looks a bit like an olm.
Felix And when you consider something "ugly" or "good-looking," it is just a matter of your opinion, Felix. And how do you mean, the design of the 720S is not good by definition? What is the meaning of "design"? If, for example, the Mclaren designer (s) goal or intention was all about aerodynamics and fucntionality, and they are well pleased with what they've achieved with the design of the 720S, who are you to say it isn't good, simply because you do not find it attractive? Shm.
I have to say, the sound of a car does not really mean that much. Many car enthusiasts emphasize on the sound and "if it sounds like it is in second gear" I think some are "being too attached to things" (Iron Man 2). I support your point of view every step of the way, but sometimes you have to look beyond that emotion and drama that is not defined in one way. I mean look at the future of electric cars. You will miss the sound and rumble of a petrol car, but you can find emotion and drama in the way it pulls and how it handles. It is like looking at someone and defining emotion based on one factor or one group of factors, just look beyond it. Like you said things in the "futuristic way lack some of the excitement of previous generation[s]". They will take excitement in one way but will give another in another way. There is always a way.
I say you should. For your driving style, the 720S is in every way a better car than the LT. The LT is still a better track car, but you rarely go to the track. As long as you don't hold on it it for to long I don't see why not. The price will likely take a drop after a couple years even without the miles, as McClarens, as awesome as they are, the prices drop for assorted reasons. But selling after a year or two your loss should be minimal. Noise is simple enough, add an exhaust. The difference between STG's 540S was night and day. I expect a 720S would be the same. A GT car you could drive, enjoy and sell when the new LT comes or whatever else comes along.
some people claim they can't unload them. some took a loss on this car so unless you don't care about depreciation, you should be careful and wait a little longer...

Shmee150 yes is my simple answer
yaaa shmee 👍
Looks amazing but too similar imo
Shmee150 entirely your decision man, if you enjoy the driving experience and you could see yourself with living with one. I say why not if you are as impressed as you are! 👍🏻
YEEEEEEES SHMEE DO IT!
just wait for LT version...
keren banget I agree
I suspect McLaren will not give LT allocations to people who didn't own a normal 720S
Shmee150 that was my guess,so for that reaso only,you should definitely buy it.And it looks amazing imo...
Shmee150 i think you could have some advantage because amount of mclarens you owned previously and still own one
Shmee150 But you owned almost all of their other product line. So ask them for that
You don't have to ask TH-cam. We all know you are Shmee lol.
@Don DoDat shhh, stop crying
lol
@Don DoDat chill
This is such a cool car
I think you should wait for the LT
Dan O'Hara he probably has to buy a 720s to get an allocation for the lt
McLaren stated to be allocated an LT you need the 720s which is a ball ache
Dan O'Hara I
Dan O'Hara
Why?
Well he had no problem getting allocated a Senna and Ford saw fit to allocate a Ford GT.
INFLUENCE opens a lot of doors.
This is a MUST BUY! I'd love to see you go across Europe in it.
What the hell ist the windscreen wiper doing? xD
Did anyone else notice the 'No Parking' sign at 2:00? The one that's right next the where the 720S is parked?
Sirpalmtree ....and...
Heard the news of McLaren testing like the hardcore version of the HS, but wrapped in one of those camos where you can't see the true shape. But it has a crazy wing, almost looks like a 650 GT3.
Where's Chris Harris when you need him?
Trapped with Top Gear.
2:00 "no parking" sign on the left
Huge fan of yours, but I really think this topic is getting a little bit redundant in your channel
Very repetitive You can tell that the youtube money stream is drying up
Agreed.
agreed!!
It's how Alot of top TH-cam's are becoming
He has so many cars it doesn't make sense. Doesn't make sense how he makes any profit with the insane taxes over there. What was the point of the vanquish?!?
Your LT is better because...
1. it's a spider
2. it's more special
3. it looks better
4. it sounds better
5. too many youtubers have one (mrjww, tgi)

Tyran Mathurin for me, the look and the sound of a car is the most important thing, of course the Performance has to be good as well.
Max Kayser
Well, that's you. And I respect your opinion and choice. But, for me, It is the performance of a car that really matters. And I don't judge according to "looks." Why? Because the looks of an object (and even that of another human-being) can't really do anything for me.
@@TheTmat007 don't buy a super car then, buy a evo tuned and that's it
AWESOME videos Tim. I watch your videos almost every day. Keep it up! Youre A BEAST. Cheers!
jordan owens hes a beast?! What are you on about??
For how long do you have to own the 720s in order to be able to get the LT-version in a few years?
last time i was this early...tim was still driving 650s
cheers on the good content
Haha, a few McLarens since then!
+Shmee150 and u keep getting better and better everyday...keep up...one of ur biggest fans..
m hooked to ur videos..plz dnt ever stop
Thank you so much for the support
Noooooooooo
Please place an order for the LT version of it
Love it!! wait for an exclusive series etc.
No P1 Starboy edition
The weeknd has that one
Tim, from my perspective, if you like Drama, that's what your GT8 is for. The 720s is for the bloke working on Downing street who wants to peacock with his doors up. Great car, but too redundant in your garage.
The 720s' wipers are abit weird
Glad I wasn't the only one thinking that. They seemed a bit 'jerky'?
I was shocked when they came on, certainly a shed load of gangly obstruction.
Still better than the Countach 😂
Hi Tim, I thought you had one on order? Get the boost turned up on your LT, that's all the 720 is a makeover with the boost turned up. Make your LT faster than a 720. Cheers.
The simple answer is no. Although the 720S is incredible! Wait for the LT version of the 720S, im sure it will be mind-blowing!
The Mc doesn't excite me, he's be better going for a Arrinera Hussarya, yeah like your saying a Hussarya? Wow?!? See?
What you and most people don't understand is that mclaren is only allocating the LT version to people who have bought a 720s. If that wasn't the case I'm sure he would just do as you said and wait till the LT version is released

Nope 🌚🌊
Haha xD
Shmee150 agreed
Shmee150 😅😅😅😏
xD xD xD hahahahahaha good joke!!! xD xD xD
TGE TV C'mon spill the beans. What issues did you have with the 720S? Build, and fit & finish quality issues?
It's not aimed of pulling on the heart strings Tim. It's a true super GT. or best alround supercar.
If you look at you're fleet it would sit perfectly in there.
We all know the LT is coming later but how many cars do you want with big wings and loud exhast. The 720s is a stealthy weapon to have. Wish I could review one for a week for you

Team Shmo He rarely loses money on cars. He explains how he does it in an older video.
Ya, I know. That is what I am saying lol
Best McLaren review on the internet!

At the monent you dont need it... you should wait for the LT
I think you should! It looks so clean, love ur vids man ❤️
Really hate the cheap click from the shift paddles
If you want a car that you can travel with and makes a lot of sound, I have a Camry with a busted exhaust that can set off car alarms wherever I drive.

Nope wait for the lt version or whatever
it's going to be called
Haven't finished watching the video, but yes. Buy one ASAP. It is probably one of my favorite cars as of now.
2:00 no parking , mmmmm Shmee you naughty boy
A wise suggestion to say buy a depreciated one and has fixed the issues. And an exhaust is definitely the first mod and probably the only one you need.
Essentially it's a Mclaren Turbo S
Yeah its AWD. Amazing huh?
You get what I mean.
Its actually RWD at least I’m pretty sure it is
I don't know it this has been asked before, but have you ever considered buying a Caterham? A 620R, for example. Your Morgan was so unique, I think a new lightweight car would be a good choice.
please dont buy a mclaren ;( they look cool but their sound is just awful and everyone has them get something more special
Tigerkitty so he should instead buy something like huracan or 488 ferrari....... whata special car it would be
äfzet It's More Powerful Than Both Cars..
In Fact It's More Powerful Than The Aventador LP 700-4..
The looks in front are slowly growing on me but Tom, if you love the car enough to buy it like you need it in your life then buy it. Just spec it with an unusual color like Orion purple
shmee if you don't get that 720s in blue you are fake shmee
How does the 360 Camera works? With sattelites? 👀
I'd bypass it, amg gtr will bridge the gap something else will come along
ThinksTim, and crew.
Buy it then sell it when the LT comes out. That way you'll get an allocation too
and lose the maximum amount of money....
TRUTH SEEKER He has money. Its just about allocations for the LT. And he won't be losing much anyway
Your conclusion is spot on!
Before watching video. My opinion is Yes you should.
Same
love the 720S and love the Gleneagles Hotel as well where it was shot, just up the road from me.
720s more like 720yes.
No Sports Exhaust option on the Mac720? I'm surprised, a lot of people complained about the lack of sound.
Dude you have made this video or talked about you not buying this car already a ton of times. Move on already
Did you say "firmin it"? Just joking with you, great video!! Keep em coming.
No you shouldn't.
When you said let's be careful in the rain I thought you would've Just floored it =)
YES
You need to get the performance package would help with that exhaust sound
no.
Question is weather the spider or the LT version will come out first?
Nah, not a pretty car and people are already selling theirs because they don’t excite them
La Esco Blanca it's not that, many owners have complained about the quality and issues already
Do you know whats exciting? Outdragging an Aventador S in your 720S and watching it become a speck in the rear vierw mirror...
stubones then you get woke up for school !
I'd love to see where these alleged McLaren 720s owners are posting their cars for sale. I've only heard good things from 720s owners. Being a current owner of a 675 LT and 570s, I cannot see where the 720s could go wrong.

Dont buy 720s, wait lt model and then have 675 lt spider and new one :D

Blablabla.....
Don’t know if it’s true but isn’t bhp the horsepower measured at the crank and ps or hp is measured at the wheel?
Buy buy buy
BAI BAI BAI baby
Blah Blah Blah
I think a 720s would be a great car for you. I just wish the exhaust was louder because it doesn't really sound much like a furious supercar.

Wont the race display gets dusty?
In my opinion, new mclaren are very ugly.
In my opinion your English is not that great

Dstlap1 yea
You need to remove Stevie wonders sunglasses
From my point of view the jedi are evil!
Does a Chiron not have the same driveability?
Do you have any weeks without asking if you should buy a car or a video about a car you just bought also wait for an lt version
@2:28 walking over that water drain with a key of a super-car in your hand should be illegal lol
Hey would you be able to do a test drive of the new lotus Evora GT430 sport ?
Did this have the sports exhaust?
I like that it’s quite-I think that’s the best feature
You should get one just to be able to get a the LT version when it does come out
LT Version of this will be absolutely crazy!
Oh that's for sure but it's years and years away too
@@Shmee150 it's available now
I say you should. For your driving style, the 720S is in every way a better car than the LT. The LT is still a better track car, but you rarely go to the track. As long as you don't hold on it it for to long I don't see why not. The price will likely take a drop after a couple years even without the miles, as McClarens, as awesome as they are, the prices drop for assorted reasons. But selling after a year or two your loss should be minimal. Noise is simple enough, add an exhaust. The difference between STG's 540S was night and day. I expect a 720S would be the same. A GT car you could drive, enjoy and sell when the new LT comes or whatever else comes along.
Shmee what you could do is in 2019 they are producing the 720 spyder so then you could buy that
some people claim they can't unload them. some took a loss on this car so unless you don't care about depreciation, you should be careful and wait a little longer...
