The 765LT Spider represents the sharpest evolution of the 720S platform and continues McLaren’s storied Longtail lineage, which can be traced back to the 1997 F1 GTR Longtail and later defined some of the brand’s most hardcore road-going models through the 600LT and 675LT.
Built for aerodynamic efficiency and track capability above all else, the Spider carries over the Coupe’s aggressive intent while adding open-air emotion with minimal compromise. Compared to the Coupe, the 765LT Spider adds only about 108 pounds due to its carbon folding roof mechanism, yet retains identical power output and near identical stiffness thanks to McLaren’s Monocage II-S tub, which requires no additional reinforcement. It tips the scales at just 3,170 pounds and is about 80 pounds lighter than the 720 Spider, while offering 25 percent more downforce, owing to a comprehensive aero package that also includes an active rear wing.
The roof operates in approximately 11 seconds at speeds up to 31 mph, allowing the car to transition from closed cockpit to a convertible, nearly instantly. A retractable rear glass will allow you to enjoy the V8 even with the roof in place. Speaking of the engine, output remains unchanged at 755 horsepower (765 PS) and 590 pound-feet of torque from the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8. The dash to 60 mph happens in roughly 2.7 seconds, and top speed is rated at 205 mph.
The mid-engined exotic receives LT-specific aero, a titanium quad-exit exhaust, thinner glazing, a reduced sound-deadening package, reworked dampers, recalibrated transmission logic, and increased cooling efficiency. The cabin also carries the LT’s signature driver-first presentation, besides the trick rotating central display that flips into a simplified, track-focused readout when Track mode is selected.
This particular example from 2022 is #169 of the 765 LT Spiders ever built, placing it firmly within the exclusive total allocation, making it one of the rarest modern McLarens and a definitive endpoint for the V8-powered LT era.
Finished in MSO Bespoke Atlantic paint ($34,578) and Cerulean Blue with MSO carbon elements ($12,750), the car features full PPF protection, a lift system, and an Alcantara interior trimmed in Black and Blue. The cabin also features an electrochromic glass roof ($9,900). With only 2,188 miles and a clean ownership trail, as well as prior residence within the Triple F Collection, it represents an example with both condition integrity and provenance desirability. CarFax confirms two owners, originally registered in Ohio in 2023 and later in Florida as of late 2024.. Serviced twice in 2024, including brake fluid flush and oil service, it represents a turnkey LT Spider offered with optimal mileage, provenance, and condition.
Given tightening supply and rising attention toward final-generation ICE McLarens, highly optioned, low-mile builds like this one, remain compelling to collectors who understand where the LT lineage stands historically and where future valuation trajectories are headed.
