Grey Mclaren 600LT

It’s the new pinnacle of McLaren’s Sport Series range, the 570S’s harder, sharper, faster cousin: 96kg lighter, 23 per cent new parts, a car to follow in the footsteps of the fabulous 675LT. It’s the McLaren 600LT.

Strictly speaking this is the fourth in McLaren’s ‘Longtail’ range after coupe and Spider versions of the 675, and the car that kick-started it all back in 1997, the F1 GTR Longtail. Only nine of those were made. More of these will be made, although McLaren hasn’t put a limit on exact numbers, merely saying that production will begin in October this year and all will be built in the next 12 months.

In order to maintain the separation between Sport Series (570S et al) and Super Series (720S) models, the 600LT does without movable aero devices and hydraulic cross-linked dampers – those features are still reserved for the (even) more expensive models.

Taking this Grey McLaren 600lt to new levels, we closed up the OEM fender gap and jumped to a larger / wider wheel set. We fit this McLaren 600lt with with 20×9 and 20×12.5 Brixton Forged PF9 Targa Series 3-piece wheels finished in Kingsport Grey with Satin Firecracker Black lips; not only providing flush to fender offsets, the larger / wider wheels visually fill the wheel-well and allow for a larger 245/30/20 and 325/30/20 tire.
