KEY TAKEAWAYS
What McLaren models can be fitted with the 60th-anniversary package?
The McLaren models that can be outfitted with the 60th Anniversary package are the GT, Artura, and 750S.Until when will McLaren offer the 60th-anniversary package?
The limited-edition package will be offered for one year starting this month.The latest exclusive package that celebrates McLaren’s six decades in the business includes exterior and interior details that serves as tribute to the marque’s unofficial “Triple Crown” achievement.
McLaren’s Triple Crown is made up of the three wins in various motorsport events namely the Indianapolis 500 (1974), Monaco Grand Prix (1984), and at the 24 Hours of Le Mans (1995).
Below are the three body paints options that are being offered across the series-production road car line-up:
- Indy Orange: reproduces and modernizes the bright orange shade of the 1974 Indy 500-winning M16D
- Monaco White: takes its inspiration from the white hue of the 1984 Monaco Grand Prix victor MP4/2.
- Le Mans Grey: a tribute to the F1 GTR that won the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Additionally, the McLaren 750S that wears the 60th-Anniversary package —which will only have 60 units — will sport Triple Crown Stripes (placed at the center of the bonnet and on the rear wing) as well as the McLaren Triple Crown logo at the front and an artwork that displays the years of victories (‘74, ‘84 and ’95).
Additionally, the 60th-Anniversary design on the 750S will also feature a contrasting rear wing underside that furthers the Triple Crown branding.
Other exterior enhancements include two new 60th Anniversary brake caliper colors (available on the 750S, GT, and Artura) namely:
- Indy Blue paint color: inspired by the Indianapolis 500-victory, color matched to the blue of the “3” race number worn by the winning M16D
- Le Mans Gold: replicates the color of the brake calipers fitted to the legendary McLaren F1 GTR
McLaren noted that the vehicles purchased with gloss carbon fiber door mirrors are fitted with a 60th Anniversary “Speedy Kiwi” logo on the mirror casings in Orange or Silver.The said badge is similar to the one on a new dedication plaque exclusively designed for cars equipped with 60th Anniversary options.
Inside, the 60th Anniversary package features a painted steering wheel center line marker finished in Indy Orange, which is available on cars with a carbon fiber steering wheel. The steering wheel marker can be had with complementing new extended carbon fiber painted gearshift paddles that is also outfitted with stripes in McLaren Triple Crown colors.
All cars ordered with any 60th Anniversary options will be fitted with a new, brushed aluminum bespoke dedication plaque, featuring a 60th Anniversary logo in McLaren Orange. The logo incorporates a “60” within the famous McLaren “Speedy Kiwi” — the badge worn by Bruce McLaren’s racing cars. Any 750S ordered with the Triple Crown Stripes will feature a “1 of 60” marking on the dedication plaque, highlighting the rarity of the specification.
The McLaren 60th Anniversary options are available for a year starting this month.
