Just days after being officially unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show, the McLaren 720S
swiftly made its way to the Amelia Island Concours in Florida for its
official stateside debut. Arguably one of the most significant supercars
in recent history, the McLaren 720S is a wondrous mix of design,
performance, and luxury.
Seeing the McLaren 720S in person for the first time drove home all
the dreams I’ve had of it the past few weeks, from the time the first
teaser hit Instagram to official unveil in Geneva. The aero work on the door is better in person,
while the F1 design of the doors make the cabin experience more profound
than we initially envisioned. Sitting in either seat gives a spaceship
feel while the amount of exposed carbon on the interior and exterior is
just tremendous.
This is the future of supercars, except it’s here. Now.
Check out the new shots of the McLaren 720.
The stepping stone of W Motors was set in Beirut, Lebanon and the chosen
venue reflected the vision of exclusivity and luxury set by Ralph
Debbas since the beginning - The Sursock Palace.
The high-society of Lebanon along with many foreign VIP guests flocked
to the invite-only event to see some of the first Lykan HyperSport
sketches and to have a glimpse of what W Motors came to be nowadays.
