This is 1 of only 50 in the world of its kind, the 2021 McLaren 720s LM, chassis number 298038, built to celebrate the anniversary of McLaren’s 1995 win at the world’s most famous 24-hour race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans with McLaren F1 GTR (number 59). This very special Le Mans (LM) 720s is part of a 50 car total run that offers a 720s dressed with ‘LM’ badging and comes offered in only two colors. Each car is painted in either MSO Sarthe Grey or MSO McLaren Orange and is equipped with a M840T 3,994 cc (4.0 L; 243.7 cu in) twin-turbocharged V8 engine. Each cars VIN starts with 298-which is the number of laps the competing F1 GTRs completed, this car being chassis number 298038. The 720s LM also features other design elements that differentiate it from the standard 720s such as carbon front fenders and in typical MSO (McLaren Special Operations) fashion, clients can get a wide array of MSO parts that could be added as well. Of the 50 total 720S LM cars being made only 16 of those cars will head to Europe. All 50 cars come equipped with five-spoke cast alloy LM wheels with Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires and a black roof scoop. McLaren has created many different LM variations of their already race-car-like road cars such as the Senna GTR LM, Senna LM, F1 LM, and others. This 720s LM may be mechanically the same as the standard 720s, however, it’s very easy to point out both its unique features and specs. Some interesting features of the 720s LM include but are not limited to a gloss black roof scoop, visible carbon fiber on the body structure, a sports exhaust system, gold brake calipers, embroidered headrests with ‘McLaren 25 anniversary Le Mans’ logo, a dedication plate with the ‘McLaren 25 anniversary Le Mans’ logo, and many other special elements and features.
