Is the McLaren 720s still the BEST Supercar money can buy? | Drive review (4k)

Is the McLaren 720s still the best Supercar money can buy?
Believe it or not the McLaren 720s has been with us for 5 years, it burst onto the scene in 2017 with its futuristic looks and ballistic performance it quickly became the best all round useable supercar on the market.
Its breadth of ability is undeniable, but since it's launch there has been several new supercars launched, each one more technologically advanced than the last. And remarkably some with even more power and more performance.
The question is, has the 720s lost its crown as the ultimate useable every day supercar.

Do you think the 720s is still one of the best super cars on sale? Let us know in the comments.

[@ENGBriseB]

These cars will become classics. Never underestimate a McLaren.

[@peterclifton6312]

Not only is the McLaren a true supercar in that colour my days it looks amazing

Matt. I almost commented before i watched the video. So glad i didn't! This is one of your best , if not the best video and review you have ever done. And you know i haven't missed a single review you have ever done! Excellent editing, locations, camera angles and drone shots. Perfection! Thank You. It is obvious your passion and understanding of this car. Yet unlike most reviewers you bring this car, super car, into the real world. Visibility, comfort, even liking it to the standard setting 3 series! You ensure there is an understanding of this British designed and built super 'super' car. You have covered every aspect and angle. Even convinced the likes of me, 'anti' super car, that it is possible to take the 720S to do the weekly shop at Sainsbury's! Speed bumps and all! Your passion and emotion for this car is obvious from the superb 'hook' opening. Matt, credit where credit is due, if your 'Masters' at Rybrook are reading this, You have nailed this! I'm sharing to all i know... perhaps even to one who could afford a 720S. No other print or video review comes close! Thank You . Keep up this amazing work. And passion for your cars! {loved the ears and eyes comment on the sound track of this McLaren! Brilliant! A real Matt-ism!]

[@SytnerTV]

Hi Keith, Thank you ever so much for this, it has put a huge smile on my face, it’s comments like this that make all the effort worthwhile, thank you for your on going support it is very much appreciated! Thank you a million times, Matt

[@skittlesgarage]

That drone shot at the beginning made me immediately press SUBSCRIBE. I drive a 570GT which I had wrapped in a similar yellow and can’t wait to step up to a 720 in the near future. I will always have a McLaren in my garage.

[@SytnerTV]

The 570GT is still such a great car, but the 720s is just another step further.

[@stephenthwaite3115]

It’s the best super car I have owned.Two yrs of ownership with no problems and I have done our weekly shop at the Supermarket in it!

[@SytnerTV]

Great to hear!

[@ArvindSingh-hf2zd]

The 720s will go down as the most underrated Supercar of its Era. I love the way Lamborghinis look but they are too tight for me inside and even the SVJ can’t compare performance wise. The 720 is truly livable daily and even a great weekend getaway - it has the luggage space and put it in comfort mode it is quiet and delivers 20mph at a 90mph pace. The exhaust as mentioned not as loud as Lamborghinis and not as sweet as Ferrari but in track mode - great v8 burbles and during shifts great addictive pops. Meaning - still very satisfying sounds. IMHO looks are great top up or down. Love the light signatures too - especially the rear. Visibility is better than any other car in this class and even better than cars like new C8 which is also very livable. The see through buttresses in the rear are both practical and aesthetically pleasing. Unfortunately Mclaren is changing some of its warranty policies - another stupid move by the manufacturer to further undervalue their cars. Basically the only issue with Mclarens are it’s corporate managers. They don’t know how to markedly position their vehicles and are too dumb to use part of Ferraris extremely successful playbook that still works for Ferraris inferior cars. Mclaren gave us the best for much less than Ferrari or Lamborghini. Full Carbon tub in a car less than $1mm and more practicality and performance than all competitors in Botha it’s price range and even those above (ie Pista). Come on Mclaren - Ferrari service 7 years included and 3 year factory warranty that can be extended without silly Mclaren type exclusions.

[@ghowells5433]

amazing camera shots as well

[@mvs9122]

I am so lucky to own a 2022 720S spider. To me the car is just so beutiful. The curves and the sounds ❤❤❤ i dont know how to drive in the way this car can be driven Mine is ludus blue, red calipers, stealth wheels , stitching and seat belts with carbon fiber spoiler.

[@MJPImages]

Great job Matt. One of your best videos. 👍

[@SytnerTV]

Couldn’t of done it without help 😁

[@santoshtelang600]

Very fantabulous

[@edwardtran1974]

High quality review. I hope u get more subscribers

[@SytnerTV]

Thank you :)

[@timfitzgerald109]

Brilliant, honest review discussing details that potential buyers like me actually want to know. Thankyou for confirming that this is the next supercar for me

[@SytnerTV]

You’re welcome!

[@FN_Finest]

Thinking of buying a mclaren in a couple of years but what is the difference between 720 and 765. Or is there maybe a newer version coming out in a couple of years?

[@markmawer]

All the positives you list about it are the very things that made me not want one when I test drove one. In town you forget you're in a supercar. Out of town when pushing on it felt like I was doing 30-40mph less than I was actually doing. Ironically it was too accomplished. Amazing bit of kit though.

[@SytnerTV]

That's fair, I loved the fact it was so accomplished.

[@markmawer]

@RybrookTV For me it was too fast for the road and too expensive for the track. Couldn't fault it as a car though, well maybe the eye sockets ;)

[@Emadavid]

As a 650s owner I always looked at the 720s as the perfect super car. A 'GT' when you want it to be with decent storage space and a beast when you step on it. But I can't love the looks of it. It might be just me but it looks a bit 'ugly' to me with that front headlight design

[@beckconnell9565]

Well Done Team!! Intro Fire!!

[@mattsmartcars]

Thanks mate 👍🏼

[@SytnerTV]

Thanks no.1 fan 👌🏼

[@user-bx4mm7mj5b]

Beautiful car

[@cjb8993]

I've been trying to decide on a "garage princess" for a while now and am narrowing my short list even further. I like the 720s however the problem I have with them include the fact Mclaren doesn't limit production. Secondly, I don't care for the looks that much, particularly in any color (sans black) they look like an Orca because of the black accents around the head lamps. Lastly, the interior is also lacking. It is a superb performance car, off the handle really. But for me, I think there are some other cars I'd rather have at a similar price point.

[@lambonasty]

I think you’re onto something. I got mine a year ago (so now I have the itch to upgrade) and there’s nothing out there that’s checking all the boxes.

[@laurant420]

can u try to describe the spec of ur car? (im just interested lmao)

[@lambonasty]

@@laurant420 silver blade spider. Black HRE rims. Alcantara leather interior.

[@laurant420]

@@lambonasty that sounds like a really nice spec, congrats!

[@lyalalyna_blythe]

Очень красивая машина 😍🤩🙌🏻

[@roxind]

It sound even better with the rear window down, just saying 😉

[@sicqnuschannel4126]

I've met a few (3) owners. Both had horrible problems with their 720 and 570. Beautiful cars, great to drive... the few times it's not sitting at the dealership to fix almost everything. McLaren had too many cars at the same time.

[@ArvindSingh-hf2zd]

I have a 720s for about 20 months now. No issues.

[@ianjhood]

Had mine since September this year so still early days, Volcano Yellow coupe, but so far no issues and its brilliant to drive.

[@whitejodeci8926]

Debating on getting one next year. The build quality stories make me hesitant though

[@JKEntAgency]

Great car but Mc Claren still don't put them together properly....electrical glitches...panel misalignment and corrosion are not acceptable for a car that is 250k plus......

[@ghowells5433]

Different class everyday review of an amazing car. I have a gt3 and keep getting tempted with a used 720s, this video doesn’t help

[@SytnerTV]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@conner.9262]

Stating how fast this car is yet we the viewer cannot see or experience this because the camera is constantly pointing at you….?? Face the camera into the front windscreen THEN we all can experience this car….????

[@jesvans]

if you can find one that wasn't beat to near death.

[@conner.9262]

Considering you can purchase this car for a lot LESS than a RM watch ?? What a bargain…. THE BEST car on the market and it’s BRITISH ??

[@mblakr7397]

I dislike steering wheels which are on the passengers side. E User#M Blakr😂

[@joaoalegrio6433]

Ok, but is reliable?

[@SytnerTV]

We did around 1000 miles in 5 days in this one and it didn’t put a foot wrong 👍🏼

[@lefuedebout]

.... @ 3:00.." McLaren build this carbon tub " NO! McLaren in fact build precious little of their cars. The carbon tub is outsourced. The engine is outsourced. In fact, practically everything is outsourced. Except for the design I suppose. Ferrari on the other hand do build their engines, build their car bodies and transmission also. No, McLaren markets great cars and assembles them too, but build them? No way José!

[@kinosgarage]

By far the least meaningful comment I’ve ever seen on any platform about ANYTHING. McLaren designed and engineered their cars from the ground up. Who doesn’t outsource stuff these days?

[@ark-mark1]

No, the GMA 50 series destroy it with it's engine and design.
