If you thought that modern McLarens can’t possibly get much cooler than the 720S or the track-focused Senna, maybe you should reconsider.
Let’s take the 570S, for example. It certainly is no slouch as, in stock form, its twin-turbo 3.8-liter V8 channels 570PS (562hp / 419kW) and 600Nm (443lb-ft) of torque to the rear axle through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
The Porsche 911 Turbo S and Audi R8 challenger comes dangerously close to proper supercars in terms of performance, as it needs 3.2sec for the 0-100km/h (0-62mph) acceleration and hits a top speed of 328km/h (204mph). With these specs, it’s no wonder most owners aren’t interested in tuning their rides.

The ‘most owners’ part doesn’t include the one featured in the video below, because this McLaren 570S would gladly swap its badge for that of its larger and more powerful sibling – the 720S. After all, it has been tuned to 721PS (711hp / 530kW) and is considerably louder due to its straight-pipe exhaust system.
With the extra muscle, this sports car turned super could very well hit the 100km/h (62mph) mark in less than 3 seconds.
Whoever owns this 570S has a sense of humor, because he has added a Joker wrap. As, apart from the exhaust sound, there’s nothing that gives away this Macca’s power, we’d say that the joke is on anyone who dares challenge it in a stop light.
