MCLAREN 570GT FOR SALE

WHAT DEFINES THE MCLAREN 570GT

GRAND TOURING DESIGNThe 570GT starts with familiar McLaren proportions, but subtle changes reshape the car around long-distance driving. The low nose, mid-mounted engine, sculpted side intakes, and dihedral doors remain, while the roof extends farther rearward than the 570S to create additional space behind the seats. A large glass rear section gives the car a cleaner, more flowing profile and visually separates it from the sharper, more performance-focused members of the Sports Series. McLaren deliberately positioned the 570GT as a supercar for longer journeys rather than simply another variation of the 570S.
That distinction matters when shopping for one. The 570GT appeals to buyers who want exotic-car presence without choosing the most aggressive version of the platform. Factory paint, wheel design, exterior carbon fiber, brightwork, brake caliper colors, and panoramic-roof specification can dramatically change how elegant or assertive an individual car feels. Some examples lean heavily into grand-tourer sophistication, while others use carbon fiber, sports exhausts, and darker exterior details to create a more aggressive personality without losing the GT's fundamentally refined character.
CARBON-FIBER MONOCELL IIThe 570GT's comfort-focused mission never required McLaren to abandon its supercar construction. At the center of the car is the carbon-fiber MonoCell II structure, providing a rigid, lightweight foundation for the drivetrain, suspension, cabin, and bodywork. McLaren lists the lightest dry weight at 2,976 pounds, only modestly heavier than the 570S despite the GT's additional glass, luggage capacity, interior refinement, and touring-oriented equipment.
That low weight is a major reason the 570GT can feel relaxed without feeling dull. The suspension has less mass to control, the steering retains the immediacy associated with McLaren, and the V8 does not need enormous horsepower to create serious acceleration. The carbon structure also allows the car to use its dramatic dihedral doors without sacrificing structural rigidity. For buyers, condition around the bodywork, door operation, underbody areas, wheels, suspension, and any previous repair work deserves attention because the lightweight construction is central to what makes the platform special.
TWIN-TURBO V8 & REAR-WHEEL DRIVEBehind the cabin sits McLaren's 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged V8, producing 562 bhp and 443 lb-ft of torque. Power goes exclusively to the rear wheels through a seven-speed Seamless Shift dual-clutch transmission. McLaren quotes 0 to 62 mph in 3.4 seconds, 0 to 124 mph in 9.8 seconds, and a 204-mph maximum speed, figures that leave little doubt that the GT badge did not turn the 570 into an ordinary touring coupe.
The character of the powertrain also suits the car's broader mission. Leave the drivetrain settings relaxed, and the transmission shifts smoothly enough for highway miles and city traffic. Ask for more, and the turbos, dual-clutch gearbox, and rear-driven chassis transform the car quickly. That contrast is part of what makes the 570GT interesting. It can settle into a long interstate stretch without feeling impatient, then deliver the kind of acceleration and throttle response expected from a mid-engine McLaren when the road becomes worth remembering.
PANORAMIC ROOF & REAR LUGGAGE DECKThe panoramic roof is one of the 570GT's defining visual and functional differences. McLaren raised and extended the roof farther toward the rear of the car, opening additional space behind the occupants while allowing more light into the cabin. Combined with the rear glass section, the design creates a much airier atmosphere than buyers might expect from a low-slung mid-engine supercar.
More importantly, that space is usable. The 570GT was designed around carrying more luggage than the 570S, giving owners room behind the seats in addition to the traditional front luggage compartment. That changes how the car can be used. A weekend trip no longer requires packing with the discipline of an airline baggage inspector, and longer drives become far more realistic for two people. Buyers should inspect the glass, seals, luggage-area trim, roof condition, and surrounding interior materials carefully because those GT-specific areas are a significant part of the model's appeal.
LONG-DISTANCE COMFORTMcLaren did not create the 570GT's refinement simply by adding softer leather. The company adjusted the car specifically for extended driving, combining its driving position with heated seats, extended leather trim, a panoramic roof, and tires containing noise-canceling foam to reduce cabin noise. The result was intended to make the car quieter and more relaxed without disconnecting the driver from the road.
Factory equipment can take that idea considerably further. Pre-owned examples can be found with electric heated memory seats, Bowers & Wilkins audio, front and rear parking sensors, rear cameras, nose lift, soft-close doors, premium leather treatments, carbon-fiber interior components, and sports exhausts. Those differences deserve attention because one 570GT may feel like a restrained luxury McLaren while another may blend touring comfort with a much more aggressive specification. The right car depends on which side of that personality you want to emphasize.
FACTORY OPTIONS, CARBON FIBER & DISTINCTIVE SPECSThe 570GT offered enough personalization to make individual cars surprisingly different. Special exterior paints, interior leather themes, carbon-fiber components, sports exhaust, nose lift, lightweight wheels, carbon-ceramic brakes, premium audio, parking assistance, colored seat belts, and other options appear across McLaren's pre-owned examples. A car configured around soft leather and understated colors can look every bit the grand tourer, while one with extensive carbon fiber, darker trim, and a sports exhaust can feel substantially more exotic.
Original documentation is especially valuable when evaluating these cars. Build sheets, window stickers, invoices, service records, and option lists can help distinguish factory equipment from aftermarket additions and reveal how expensive or unusual the original configuration actually was. Our previously sold 2017 example carried a $233,390 original MSRP and combined full Harissa Red Nappa leather with both interior and exterior carbon-fiber packages, illustrating how much individuality could be built into a single 570GT.
