Well here it is - the 720S

[Kermitgreenmeanmachine]

Someone snapped up '72 O' at the latest DVLA auction for £40k, the last couple of days.

^^^ Bonkers!

Friends wife spotted this on the M25 this morning

I just cannot get excited about McLaren body design. I so want to like the way they look as I know how good they are but they just don't evoke any emotion.

I'm undecided but we are looking at a design that is deliberately disguised here, the coloured renderings do look much nicer.

Out of interest what current cars do float your boat, your Gallardo looks great but I was in a showroom earlier today with 4 Huracans and just felt they were underwhelming. They had a 458 in which looked muted in white, and just felt none had the visual drama of a 570s.

I was talking to a Mac dealer today and his words were the new car is more Lambo than Mac in design. I hope he's right because while I appreciate these are very good cars the design with the exclusion of the P1 have never looked great to me!

Unless it looks nothing like the car in the picture above, he's wrong.

What kind of dealer would say that?
How long would a Porsche sales guy last if he told an interested buyer, "hmm the new Caymanera GT6 is more Ferrari than Porsche in it's design"

What a tit.
Anyone with working eyes can se McLaren has it's own design language and it's fundamentally different to Lambos....and mot of the others

Don't shoot the messenger! Everyone is entitled to an opinion and if it's not the same as yours doesn't make it wrong!
More angular was another phrase he used!

[Quickmoose]

I'm not shooting you Sone, and I'd not shoot the McLaren dealer either, that'd be just wrong.
As wrong as his opinion.
He could have an opinion that a circle is a square. That'd be wrong too

Maybe the next model is more angular, but in this case sometimes, personal opinions are wrong, because whichever way you want to slice it, the 720S bares no similarity to Lamborghini in terms of surface treatment.

But his opinion is clearly wrong. The 720S is actually curvier than the 650S. The 650 had some sharp lines around the front end and rear, this is all swooping lines, curves and scoops. I think he was just speaking out of his arse.

[Quickmoose]

...and even if he wasn't.... you don't compare one of the best car brands out there with another in that way?!

He's effectively admitting the previous cars had no drama and that he feels Lambo do, and that the next models will have a bit of Lambo in them...
You just don't say/admit that kind of stuff.....personal opinion like that should play not part in his sales patter...

[isaldiri]

Salesman saying something to try and sell a car...big surprise that probably reckoned sone was better inclined to lambo styling so tried to talk up the car that way I would guess.

[993AL]

I think it's a big improvement in the looks department over anything they've done before, especially the front and the rear.

Does anybody know how the doors open? sensor under the panel just like the 570S has at the moment for locking?

[Bispal]

Cant wait to see it at the dealer reveal :-)

[stoatage17]

Nor can I Bispal, just 2 1/2 weeks to wait for me. Couldn't see the point of going down to the recent factory reveal. I am going to Geneva as well to see cars in different colours /specs. Am hoping and expecting it to be one of the standout cars, if not the standout!

[anonymous-user]

Where are you guys going? I've got an invite for Birmingham on the 15th but I'm not sure I can make it as I'm at another event on the 16th.

[stoatage17]

Hi Garyhun, Birmingham for me, at 11.00 with Ian Groves .
