Miles straps into the latest Long Tail McLaren in this in-depth review. Tracing its origins to the McLaren F1 GT of the late '90s and succeeding the 675LT, the 765LT has some big shoes to fill. Based on the 720S, McLaren has stripped weight (up to 176 lbs), increased power (by 45 hp and 22 lb-ft), and enhanced exclusivity (limited to just 765 units) to create the 765LT. With a $385,000 starting price, the 765LT is track-focused but street-legal supercar with few direct rivals. Well-heeled buyers may also consider the Lamborghini Huracan Performante (or newer STO) or Ferrari 488 Pista (or newer F8 Tributo).
The 675LT remains one of the best cars Miles has ever driven and the 720S is among the most impressive supercars on sale, so his expectations for the 765LT are high. Are they too high, though? Find out!

It has done 0-124 mph in 6.35 seconds That is just insane🔥
I remember when 0-60 in that time was impressive.
Just for reference, the Tesla Model Plaid does 0-124mph in 4.02 seconds The Remac Nevera does 0-124mph in 5.2 seconds The Lucid Air Dream does 0-124mph in 7.2 seconds
@@evolicious the rimac is much faster than the plaid, where did you get those numbers from?
@@evoliciousjust for reference they are not just rear wheel; just for reference they are different technologies; just for reference they go round corners less than half the speed; just for reference you need one if you want to own one; just for reference do your homework
@@will.dornonthis guy did not do his homework; wait and see when electric cars are fully optimised, a new McLaren will be born. Electric vehicles have not matured enough yet; there is still more data, engineering and weight to be made before ………….
The canyon drive video pov camera blew my mind when you were cornering. It looked like every corner was cambered and I was nearly there with you! That was my KZhead video of the year by far.
Man I’m speechless 😶 this car is a superb piece of art. I love every single detail on it... and the painting 😱
Hey now if a Lamborghini fanboy sees this they will deport you
This is from someone who knows I know what Lamborghini fanboys can do when there angry
It’s awesome how in depth this review is. Very well done 👏
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 👍
I have a 2017 mclaren 570gt. The whining noise you hear is not the computers. It’s the hydraulic power steering pump. Unlike most cars it doesn’t have an eps system (electric power steering) instead it uses an electro hydraulic unit. That’s way they have better steering than Porsche Lamborghini and Ferrari. Mercedes also uses this type of steering on the amg gt coupe and roadster. You will also here the wine in those cars also.
Thanks for clearing that up! Appreciate the insight as an owner.
Raw ... love the 675LT ... 765LT moves the goal posts again ... Brilliant McLaren !!!!
In a few years when I’m in a position to buy a flagship mclaren, I’m going full custom exhaust. Kinda like how savage garage gave their SVJ to Gintani and they gave it that blood curdling screech of a exhaust. I need that.
What job do have?
@@hanno9752 probably waiting for the next round of stimulus checks. Robbing small business and hardworking folks blind so people who don’t have the intelligence to save an emergency fund can buy the new iPhone.
you can do it and we're going to race
Wow great job on today’s video milesperhr
This must be the most relatable guy to do a review on a supercar... I could literally feel every expression and luckily there was no "mhh yeah it's good but lamborghini is .005% better in steering and acceleration" if you get what I mean. You sir are as legit as can be!
Thank you for the feedback. I’m glad my enthusiasm came through in the video!
These are so fast, I once saw one just play with a Porsche Gt3 RS on the Nurburgring! It rode the Gt3 ass the whole track and passed it at will, so crazy this car is super fast
Thanks for the content. Love the video. I think the double glazed window refers to the engine window right below the hood scope duct and not the rear window which is polycarbonate and not an extra option. Too bad they didn't option all of the exterior carbon pieces. Also, don't go around whacking the aeroblades haha
The 765lt is the fastest street car ever. It’s basically a street legal emp2 class car. The 720s doesn’t have spine shattering suspension and is my preference, this race car theater bare carbon, Lexan POLYCARBONATE, shorter gears, huge CS BRAKES. I love supercharged huracan. Btw the horsepower Is 750 wheel hp so it’s more like 860 crank horsepower. Insane race car
It is, to date, the most insane street legal car I've driven.
I am a McLaren Owner, and there is no question the 765LT commands the roads and track. Be advised the performance times cited by McLaren are grossly understated as well as the horsepower for their cars. The HDF 570s Spider has 625 hp at the crank and delivers 533 to the wheel. It runs a 0-60 in 2.7 seconds and runs the quarter mile in 10.1 seconds. I am sure the 765LT will run a 0-60 in at least 2.4 seconds and that it is producing around 800 hp at the crank.
I’m not surprised. This felt so much quicker than the numbers suggest
@@MilesPerHr McLarens are wickedly fast, light, and extremely exciting to drive.
Amazing content, keep going
That Ludus blue is gorgeous on this car
Love the car, and the color is spectacular
I agree, Gary! That color is stunning!!
Shut up boomer
Absolutely, that blue fits the car perfectly
It's Ludus blue

Oh my god,43mins length. Awesome
mclarens suit very bright colours in my opinion, due to their ufo looking aesthetics. that being said, every car i spec out lately is blue, and this is an incredibly eye catching colour. when the sun hits it that shine is amazing. what a car
Love Ludus Blue. My new favorite color and love how they color matched the calipers. Don’t think they have that on the options list 👍🏽
I like the way u introduce those cars to us the people u got that certain special talent blessings to u
I think my "goal" or "dream" supercar is a McLaren 765LT in Curacao blue (a really nice light blue)
This is my dream car 😍😍 Would love to own one in volcano red one day ;))
Napier green looks amazing
Perfect color. Perfect car I'll say. Beautiful love it :) Enjoy it!
The colour is Ludus blue
you should see the blood orange one lol
Actually that high pitched noise up front is from the power steering and hydraulic suspension fluid pump. Love the review though.
Thanks for that clarification - glad you enjoyed it!
This mclaren sound better than any lambo v10 or v12. I mean those are so common that the people dubbed them poor man's lambo.. Love ur videos much love from India.. that car is FIRE....❤️❤️❤️😘😘
No. Just, no
@@taylorh2192 Yes, McLaren's are wayy better than Lamborghini's when it comes to performance!
@@_fiftyseven_ true, but not when when it comes to sound.
@@hasangenc2922 What r u dumb? Who cares about sound? It's all about performance! U're just a school going kid who knows only sounds. Yes, some do care about sounds but nobody buys these cars for sound. This McLaren beats every Lamborghini I would say in overall perspective!
@@_fiftyseven_ if i would pay 400.000$ for a car i wouldnt want it to sound like vacuum cleaner no matter how fast it is
The car looks fire 🔥

One day I hope to have a job like you do, reviewing cars on my KZhead channel! (And hopefully a 765lt!)
It's amazing how fast cars have become. I own a 200 hp Motorcycle that would creep away from a 720S from a roll but I think I'd be close 765LT but it'd probably walk away from me. It is hard to comprehend! I would have no chance from a launch, and would need the bike to be lowered and strapped to stand a chance as stock height I could possible get a 9.9 @ 145-150 mph but this Mclaren is in the 9.3s which is insane.
At the launch the bike would jump up at the front wheel and loose much time in a race against the 765 LT just my opinion 😅
@@erichermann7553 even from a roll only few motorcycles would match it. h2, s1000rr, etc.
Great car. I almost choked when I saw how much that roof scoop add-on was though, Jesus Christ.
Agree with everything in your drive. Best car I've ever driven. Nothing comes close.
Lamborghini Aventador SVJ & Apollo I E Hyper car
@@derekintrovert5619 if you've driven 765LT & Aventador SVJ, you will know it doesn't come anywhere near the McLaren - except engine sound, where the Lambo is far superior. I've not driven the Apollo, and am pretty sure you haven't either. And that costs 10x the McLaren, so is irrelevant anyway.
@@AkaliBlade Lamborghini Aventador SVJ Set a Ring Record !! Has a Normally Aspirated V 12 Like The Apollo I E Hyper car Engine! Every one is going Turbo. Don't know Why some people get so Snarky
@@derekintrovert5619 this is faster than the SVJ and Aventador is an old platform now, and outdated now. This thing's onboard computer is far more sophisticated.
@@derekintrovert5619 the aventador didnt even stand a a chance against the 720s in a direct comparison my friend. Not on a 1/4 mile, not 100 to 200 kmh, not from 100 to 300 kmh, not from 200 to 300 kmh and not on a racetrack. Laprecords dont say a lot because not all cars drive on the same das with the same conditions and sometimes not even on similar tires.
32:58 "this is not a car!"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Brooks got his to do 2.1sec 0-60mph
great Supersport Car, I like it.
the aero changes remind me a lot of the Pista compared to the 488
Definitely a similar philosophy
Man I love the Blue! Dream car indeed blue 720s or 765lt 💙
Beautiful Maclaren
Beautiful colour
This my one of my dreams
I love this color and this car ! Most beautiful McLaren in my opinion !
Blue is nice! I would probably go with black though
It demands respect and sure looks exclusive, but yet it doesn’t strike me like it did the 675 lt 🤷
I kinda agree that the 675LT had more presence but this is still a standout on the road
31:51 Andrew Glouberman is that you? 😂
got to ride in this car on the exact same road you’re driving on with a journalist friend... i understand your reactions haha this car is crazy
I hope I have it one day
I love the full exposed carbon version of this 765lt looks lit
Yeah that will rob you , thats worth 100k extra
Every thing is good but please can u show the roof removal in this can can we remove roof or not 🤔🤔❤❤💕💓💓💓
What a stunning car! Every angle of this car is just beautiful! And the performance is insane! Your fellow KZheadrs, TheCarKids
geez wish i can have one someday
How big is the gas tank 765LT ?
🔥 content
Love this car. Dream car.
Great channel mate what camera do you use
All filmed on an iPhone 11 Pro. Complete equipment list is in the video description 👍
Very nice
for me one in Sarthe Grey please.
I love the blue i wouldn't change a thing
BROOOO THE WINGS ON THE BACK MOVE WHY HE TURNING !!! AHHHHHHHHHHH
Love the blue, but Silver\grey is my favorite.
Did you have the front lift up when you were panning around the car early into the video? Looked like a big wheel gap in the front.
Yes, I left it up by accident 🤦♂️
This thing is stupid fast!
That high pitch sound that you say it's from the computers in the car is not the sound of the computers. You hear the interval from it and every AlfaRomeo lover know's that it is from the hydraulic pump system from the gearbox that keeps the system under pressure.
If i ever buy a 720 or 750 or 765 its gonna be full black and carb fiber exteriors, the way it kinda hides the shape of the front lights make It looks 100 times more aggressive
Great car amazing car !!!!!
I would like red colour mclaren!!
nice reviews --- how does it compare to the svj you drove
The SVJ is just unbridled chaos, but the 765LT is incredibly precise driving dynamics.
Volcano Red is the best colour for this car
Another great LT model from McLaren. LT models are completely different beasts to the regular cars and worth twice the price IMHO. This is a big improvement on the 720S but not the same game changing leap as the 675LT was over the ase 650S. Mclaren really went to town with the 675LT to launch the LT sub brand and as such is still the stand out car from Mclaren and a guaranteed future classic
Well said. The 675LT left an indelible impression on me. The 765LT is better in every dimension, but it may not be as big a leap from the 720S as the 675 was over the 650.
That's definitely a nice car.
I’d compare this to an avantador and SF90 vs an STO and F8
Makes you stop blinking when you hit the loud pedal = take it to a drag strip and launch it = 10 million views --- everybody waiting for that 1/4 mile time
Definitely. I had the STO. And my 600LT owned my STO. The 765 will obliterate the STO.
and you can strike it rich why not it be you who puts the car on his wall to look at it every day? surely, with the same amount of effort you are putting in to review the cars for a living will bring that reality to you. good day. 🧙🏾♂️
Mclaren makes beautiful cars but they all have issues, my 720's second home is the service center.
Crazy fast car. Easily one of the fastest rear wheel drive production car which is impressive. I like that its noisy and you can hear the engine. I wonder if this is faster than the much 911 Turbo S which technically cheats with all wheel drive? The F8 Trib is fast but sounds like poop. The STO will be the best sounding but probably not the fastest. They are all rocket ships. Absolutely love that blue shown here.
0-60 time feels underrated. Might be faster than 911 Turbo S
The 765LT is massively faster than a Turbo S. Check out DragTimes, his 720s is a lot faster than a Turbo S and he also owns a 765LT which in turn can leave the 720s behind. The turbo s is doing low 10’s, the 720s 9.7-9.8s and the 765LT 9.3s. Still love the Turbo S though as an everyday supercar.
Will you test the spider ?
If I have the chance, yes!
What about the AMG GT black series as the competitor ?
That would be another option, totally
@@MilesPerHr you should try to pick one of those up! Would be very interested to hear your opinion on how the two compare!
Freaking amazing
that high pitched noise is a deal breaker for me
how would you compare this to the 720s? worth the upgrade?
100% worth it. The 720S is so good, but this is better in every dimension
What is this POV meaning ?
How tall are you? I've always wondered if I could comfortably fit in a car like this being 6' 4".
I'm 6'0" with a longer torso (usually the biggest issue with supercars). I'd wager you could fit - though it might be tight.
Possible covering BMW M4 2021
Hope so - as soon as it’s available
I have one question which is more premium and expensive alkantara or leather?
They are equally as nice. It's subject to personal preference.
@@8w494 ohk
Leather is more
As 8 W says below, it’s totally preference
I still see this car between 720s and 800 Senna.
Enjoy yourself Agree my boy !! Love from india such a great car
36:24 anyone else thought he was stopping on the highway?
He was on ridge line drive off Ortega hwy above lake Elsinore. Not much traffic on that road.
How tall are you bro? Looking to get one soon...
6’0” - I had plenty of room. 👍
@@MilesPerHr Ok, I'm 6'3" and was a little worried!
the color i choose would be between white and grey
This color remninds the cerulean blue
Supercar and Blue is a American color perfect combination
would you rather have this or the svj roadster you drove?
Such a great question. I think I’d have this. I’m not a super flashy person, and while the Aventador SVJ’s sound was incredible, it was also too shouty of a car for my personality. This 765LT is wickedly fast, looks cool, and isn’t quite as flashy as the Lambo
@@MilesPerHr I definitely agree, and overall I think the 765LT is much more of a driver’s car whereas the SVJ is more of a flexer’s car
@@Jayz0507 it Set a Record at The Ring
@@MilesPerHr The Lamborghini Aventador SVJ Roadster is Too Flashy???
@@MilesPerHr it Set A Ring Record! No Turbos!! Lamborghini has come out with 2 cars in a Year
Does the car get more performance from E-85 or is it gas only?
Gas only 🤷♂️
MCLAREN TOP !
I thought that was McLaren 765 Laughtrip.
YAY,MC LAREN 😍😍😭😭😭SO BEAUTIFUL,I LOVE MC LAREN THO😭😭😭FROM MALAYSIA😊❤
Where's that "Hey crew, I've got the key to...?"
That came later in my POV Reviews! This is an older video 👍
F1 GT? I think you mean GTR Longtail. The GT was only built for homologation.
31:00- your welcome
Wow!!!
I want.
