The special design of McLaren Special Operations’ ‘Velocity’ paintwork celebrates the exhilarating performance credentials of this new McLaren. The Fusion of Nerello Red and Volcano Red paint finishes showcases the vision of MSO to create uniquely sophisticated, bespoke McLaren supercars.
Shortly after the latest McLaren 720S was released at the centre of the motoring world in the Palexpo at the 2017 Geneva motor show, here it was noted that customers buying the 720S would benefit by way of the new personalized version put together by McLaren Special Operations. The new Velocity paint combination by McLaren Special operations gives a massive scope for personalisation if you do decide to go for the Super Series version by the bespoke division of McLaren – MSO.
“The MSO mission is to fulfill customer desire for exclusivity in their choice of McLaren,” said Ansar Ali, Managing Director of McLaren Special Operations. “The lean, sculpted beauty of the new 720S provides the perfect starting point for owners to be creative and the specification of this MSO 720S ‘Velocity’ showcases a taste of the customisation options that are possible.”
This amazing Velocity paintwork is two combined pearlescent finishes, the newly developed Nerello Red is applied to the upper and front body panels including the carbon-fibre bonnet. The Volcano Red looks vividly exceptional on the sides and rear of the car – completing a look that makes this car a timeless masterpiece.
Looking past the paints work there are many other features that make this car stand out from the crowd, like the bronze lightweight alloy wheels to shed that extra weight and get maximum performance. There is also the custom designed and fitted carbon fibre parts selected from the MSO collection, In addition there is the red carbon fibre bonnet, gloss carbon Rear Vent, gloss carbon fibre Service Cover, gloss carbon rear aero bridge and a striking satin carbon Full Length Sill Cover too.
