It’s titanium silver

Got a really nice metallic glitter in the sun , but has a nice stealth grey tinge in the cloud which goes great against the carbon

V nice paint that, not usually a fan of black wheels these days but they work well with that paint. You had a 12c Spider before right how does the 650S compare ?

This is my fifth McLaren, I had a 650S spider before the Purple 12C spider

Honestly, they are 95% similar in the real world IMO.

Phenomenal cars



The wheels are anthracite colour, so not totally black as I too am not a fan of black wheels

Hasn’t been much sun to get it out in last month but the blue fleck is really nice when it hits…car almost looks dark blue in the right light .

Just before taking it out - during which the air brake stuck up. I'm aware of the manual fix (had to do it once on my old one) but it's not working here. I can raise the spoiler about 2" higher and lower it back to the stuck position - but then it stops solid. I can feel the hydraulic pressure when I raise and lower it, but once it stops, it's not moving any further down.

I am a bit annoyed that 1 month after buying the car, I need to visit McLaren or V Engineering. Looks good, but slightly annoyed with it right now!

ETA : Fixed. Found a post on McLaren life - raise spoiler to max position, then drive the car and self test will fix it. Sure enough, it did.
