The McLaren Special Operations (MSO) division is rather familiar with the concept of personalisation, as exemplified by their recent works. With the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance coming up, the team has unveiled its latest creation based on the new McLaren 600LT.
Called the ‘McLaren 600LT in Stealth Grey by MSO’, the Macca comes with a paint finish from the MSO Bespoke palette, coupled with number of upgrades from the MSO Defined and MSO Bespoke catalogues. Put simply, this car has a lot of expensive options on it.
Thankfully, there’s plenty of visual splendour as a result, with the Stealth Grey main body colour pairing well with orange accents that highlight the car’s aero features. A carbon-fibre roof scoop reminiscent of the F1 Longtail is one of the new additions here, along with a full carbon-fibre package.
The latter sees the door mirrors, exterior door inserts front splitter, rear bumper, diffuser, rear deck and service cover all being replaced with carbon-fibre units. Further weight-saving options include a carbon-fibre roof, cantrails and front fender louvre. The “stealth look” is further emphasised by the lightweight, 10-spoke forged alloy wheels in gloss black.
Inside, carbon-fibre racing seats from the Senna make their presence known with orange contrast topstitching to mirror the exterior highlights. Various pieces like the door insert panels and centre tunnel cover are all replaced with carbon-fibre as well. For a greater “race car feel,” there’s even a harness bar and six-point harnesses that are part of the MSO Clubsport Pro Pack.
As sporty as these revisions are, the MSO-touched 600LT also gets an upgraded 12-speaker Bowers & Wilkins audio system for those trips to the track. Other touches that are less performance-focused are the embroidered headrests, etched throttle pedal and hand-painted keys.
On the mechanical side, things remain as before, with the M838T 3.8 litre twin-turbo V8 continuing to put out 600 PS and 620 Nm of torque. The new roof scoop, a functional piece if you must know, is linked directly to the engine and you can see parts of it from the inside.
