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.

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.

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....

Nice review. I've had my Huracan pictured left for 2 1/2 years now, and I'm starting to get the itch for a 720S. The Huracan has been bulletproof. I'm in Canada, drive it all year rount, daily, and have put 15,000 km on it. It just works. My biggest fear with the McLaren is reliability, but I'm in Vancouver, there's a dealer in town, and the car I'm interested in is located at the dealership, so at least there's support. I agree with you regarding the level of "inconvenience" people place on a lot of the items...kinda petty. They're really non-issues. Take care.

The only thing you would have to worry about would be the 720 is rear wheel drive.

Lack of glovebox is legit. I don't understand why it couldn't be added regardless. I definitely agree on the brake pedal. 2nd cup holder is DUH. Agree on that as well. Buttons are no big deal---not a legit concern/issue. Noise of shifters is a non-issue. I'm NOT a fan of the SIZE though. I actually prefer Aston's setup that has them bigger, but static location. Gas gauge is a non-issue. Give me a break people GREAT THOUGHTS on how to start the car. I did NOT know that! LMAO at NO LOCATION for your cell phone! 100% agree!

@@makk2042 After fixing my initial issues that were most likely just due to the dealer letting the battery die. And the tech not plugging something back in. Mine has been solid so far.

[@jesvans]

i wish i had those problems !

[@Busterburg]

That’s what I say all the time. 😂

[@jesvans]

@@Busterburg i am poor, i have never even seen a McLaren in person. i win the lottery, i am getting a 720s in your color. would yours happen to be Brooks ?

[@Busterburg]

I thought that at one point too. Change how you think and it’s in as far away as you think. I don’t think I got Brooks 720 but I don’t know who owned it before me.

[@jesvans]

@@Busterburg earning wealth takes time, or luck, i have neither. you look under 30. if i was 30, and knew what i know now, then yes, i could do it. going on 60, and not all that smart, i don't have a chance. hey, maybe you live by me, and would give me a ride, lol = the luck thing = nope.

[@Busterburg]

I’m over 40 and I don’t think that luck has anything to do with it. I think it’s in your mindset and willingness to see opportunities that others miss due to a fixed mindset.

[@jeffufcfanaticrosenberg]

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

[@Busterburg]

Yeah they are great. But I fully agree that there isn’t much room to mod unless you want to really spend a lot of money to do it. I am starting to look for something with more potential for mods.

[@sallahudinmehuddin8046]

Manual seats save weight.

[@Busterburg]

Yeah and add another inch or so of headroom. I think the seats I have are more comfortable though.

[@floriandiederichsen6597]

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

[@Busterburg]

We have to put our can of Redbull somewhere. Hahah.

[@jasonpatterson2143]

Yes, yes they are.

[@Busterburg]

So far I don't think they are. I haven't had any major issues that make it stay at the dealer that would definitely have the ability to change my mind in a hurry. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@TheG60528XiJinPing]

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.

[@stephanieroberts1394]

I love your cap.

[@Busterburg]

It’s one of my favorites.

[@mvs9122]

I have one, IMO the car is beyond gorgeous!

[@Busterburg]

I have always wanted a Aventador finally got one and I was underwhelmed by the looks and driving. The 720 on the other hand looks and drives amazing.

[@mvs9122]

@@Busterburg IMO, 720S is about curves and being subdued inside. The steering wheel doesn't have a single button. Lambo, esp avandatore is about sharp angles and very aggressive interior. I believe 720 outperforms avandatore on track but the aura of avandatore is legendary. I would pick a svj over 720S anyday. Avandatore demands respect which i would give. My 720S is 2022, ludus blue, red caliprs, stitching and seat belts with carbon fiber spoiler and stealth wheels. What's your avandatore? PS my fantasy is to also have a lambo (used avandatore or new tecnica) and a Ferrari (488 GTS or 296 GTS) over the next 4 years. Idk if it is gonna happen though.

[@Busterburg]

The SVJ is different than regular Aventadors. I would say you would have to compare the 765 to the SVJ. Next time I see PJ with @exoticcarhacks I will ask him which he likes better he has both.

[@mvs9122]

@@Busterburg agree svj is very beautiful. My friend just got 2014 gray avandatore and i prefer mine over his but then again avandatore has a much bigger name. What color is yours?

[@Busterburg]

Mine was orange but I sold it awhile ago.

[@gabriellefrost3014]

Soon….

[@Busterburg]

[@rockootto4626]

The electronics of this car is really bad

[@Busterburg]

Mine didn’t have a ton of electrical issues but yes they are known for that.

[@jeffufcfanaticrosenberg]

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

[@zzzzzsleeping]

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.

[@Busterburg]

I have heard that is an issue. I agree that all the problems I went over are minor. Those were the most common complaints I was seeing from other videos.

[@jonathanmayberrydesigns]

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

[@Busterburg]

Thanks for watching. I was simply giving credit to the person I gained information from. Have a nice day.

[@jonathanmayberrydesigns]

@@Busterburg I would never admit to that idiot teaching me anything.

[@SuccessfulandSatisfied]

I got a svj Instead . More for your buck

[@Busterburg]

You could buy 2 720’s for a SVJ price. But you definitely have an amazing car.

[@russelldominic5736]

[@Busterburg]

It is a lot of fun.

[@Food_is_goodyt]

Noice

[@Busterburg]

Thanks

[@Natak222]

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

[@Busterburg]

Yeah I could see him doing that. He has mentioned how far away he lives from the dealership so that’s probably an extra annoyance for him too. Hopefully I have one of the “good” ones And it won’t break down.

[@Natak222]

@@Busterburg Fingers crossed man. Was hoping to pick up this or the 600lt mid next year but it seems breakdowns is part of the mclauren experience. So frustrating for such a beautiful car to have so many issues. Good luck though!

[@Busterburg]

Aventadors same issue. Maybe a R8 or Huracan. Those are both reliable. My New NSX was amazing.

[@smiconsulting8434]

@@Natak222 the most important thing is to actually get them out and drive them. The ones with problems are the ones that sit in garages and don’t get driven. Besides the battery I recently replaced, the accumulators will need to be replaced in the near future, but none of these issues ever left me stranded and the car is amazing! Buy one and drive it and enjoy the hell out of it! 🏎️💨

[@floriandiederichsen6597]

They are way better than people make it sound. Yes, small things will go wrong, but you don't get stranded as long as you drive it. If it sits the battery goes and then you're in trouble. Also, it isn't a daily like a Porsche or such, not because the car won't do it (though the MP-4 was better in that respect) but because the dealerships won't turn them round in a day.

[@hugohugo2832]

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

[@Busterburg]

To hold a drink. I don’t only drive it on the weekends or to a car show. I like to dive it for anytime. For me that means water bottles and coffee and energy drinks from time to time.

[@rezonator2061]

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

[@Busterburg]

Maybe the algorithm is putting different videos in front of me. But I get more video’s saying things like “5 things I hate about my McLaren 720s” or “why I sold my 720s”. It’s probably because when I was buying it I was looking for what to be cautious of when looking. Sorry if you didn’t like my title. Thanks for your comment though. Have a great day.

[@x305HuStLa]

mclaren's interiors are so plain and ugly

[@Busterburg]

Yeah unless you go super heavy with MSO options.

[@x305HuStLa]

@@Busterburg you ever consider a r8 or huracan and twin turbo it?

[@Busterburg]

I had a first gen R8 gated v10. I loved it. I would totally get a new R8. The window is too low for me on a Huracan I am too tall.

[@gregory5347]

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

[@Busterburg]

That’s true for a lot of people. Watching the videos it doesn’t seem like the people making them actually own the cars either.

[@Pyriel2]

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

[@Busterburg]

I have had cars with them not attached too. There are advantages and disadvantage to both ways. With the 720 if it’s in track mode you can keep your hands at 9 and 3 for most driving.

[@cuzonGames]

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

[@Busterburg]

I remember when I first saw a 720 when they came out and saying one day I will have one. The day I got it was surreal for sure.
