The 750S Le Mans: Is This the Ultimate Tribute Car?

Thirty years ago, a McLaren F1 GTR did something nobody expected: it won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in one of the wettest races on record. To celebrate that wild victory, McLaren isn’t throwing a party—they’re building a special edition 750S. It's called the 750S Le Mans, and with only 50 units in the world, it's a rolling tribute to a legendary win.

The Le Mans Connection

This car is a deep-cut nod to the winning #59 F1 GTR. It's not just a fancy paint job; it's got real heritage woven into its design.

  • Classic Look: It comes in two colors—either 'Le Mans Grey' (the color of the race-winning car) or the iconic 'McLaren Orange.' It also sports five-spoke alloy wheels styled just like the ones on the original F1 GTR.

  • Gold Touches: The brake calipers are finished in a cool F1 gold color, and the wheel caps get subtle blue and red detailing, bringing a little bit of that race-day livery to the road.

  • Exclusive Plaques: Inside, you’ll find a dedicated build slot plaque and Le Mans logos on the headrests and floor mats, so you'll always be reminded of its rare status.

Built for Downforce, Not Just Show

The 750S Le Mans isn't just about celebrating the past—it’s about enhancing the present. McLaren's MSO (McLaren Special Operations) team gave it a brand-new 'High Downforce' kit.

  • Aero Upgrades: This kit includes a larger front splitter, a roof suction scoop, and an active rear wing. These aren’t just for looks; they work together to boost the car's downforce by as much as 10 percent.

  • Small Details, Big Impact: Finishing touches include louvred under-wing panels and titanium exhaust tailpipes, adding to the car’s aggressive, track-focused stance.

This car is a fantastic blend of old-school racing glory and modern performance. It’s a collectible with a purpose, giving a nod to the past while pushing the limits of what a street car can do.

With only 50 of these being made, would you prefer a special edition like the 750S Le Mans, or would you stick with the standard 750S and customize it yourself?
