The 2023 edition of the SEMA Show will kick off at the end of the month, and various tuners are already readying their projects that will sit under the spotlight. One of them is Liberty Walk, which recently took to social media to unveil a very special McLaren 720S.
Mind you, despite looking ready, it is not, as the Japanese company says it is a prototype – and one for seeing how the widebody kit fits because it features the tuner's emblematic add-ons, which make the British supercar appear more aggressive.
Sporting visible bolts, the fender flares are part of the redesign. Those ultra-muscular side skirts were also signed by Liberty Walk, which left its signature on the fat apron and the big diffuser. The wing must be mentioned here, too, and we cannot ignore the new wheels either, which sport Liberty Walk and Rohana branding on them.
According to the tuner based in the Land of the Rising Sun, the first kits were already shipped to the United States, where they will be fitted to other McLaren 720S supercars that will be on display at the SEMA show that will open its gates on October 31 and close them on November 3. We reckon they will release additional images of other tuned McLarens in the coming weeks, so we will keep an eye out for them.
Liberty Walk does not tend to mess around with the engines of its builds, and the same likely goes for the pictured McLaren 720S. Thus, it probably retains the stock output, which is 710 hp (720 ps/530 kW) and the 568 lb-ft (770 Nm) of torque produced by the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine. A stock example will hit 62 mph (100 kph) in 2.9 seconds, the spec sheet reveals, and it will tap out at 212 mph (341 kph).
Now, we cannot end this story without reminding you that McLaren pulled the plug on the 720S earlier this year when they replaced it with the 750S. A comprehensive mid-cycle refresh of its predecessor, the newer model is 30 hp (30 ps/22 kW) punchier, as its name implies, improving the sprint time by one-tenth of a second. The top speed, however, has gone down a bit to 206 mph (332 kph).
In the United States, the British automaker is selling the 750S Coupe from $324,000. This is the base price of the supercar that does not include the destination charge and dealer fees, and you can easily make it more expensive by throwing in a few extras. Those who'd rather go for the 750S Spider will have to cough out even more, as the open-top derivative is pricier. The model has an MSRP of $345,000.
