The McLaren GT, finished in a striking Ice Silver Metallic, is a grand tourer that perfectly balances performance and luxury. While no longer in production, the GT was a flagship for McLaren’s “long-distance supercar” philosophy, designed to deliver both high-speed thrills and comfortable touring. It’s a vehicle that still turns heads. Plain and simple.
Under the hood, the GT packs a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine producing 612 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. This power allows the GT to accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-100km/h) in just 3.1 seconds and reach a top speed of 203 mph (326km/h). Paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and rear-wheel drive, the McLaren GT offers precise handling, exceptional braking, and an effortlessly refined driving experience. Its successor, the McLaren Artura, carries forward the brand’s cutting-edge performance ethos with hybrid technology, but the GT remains a standout in McLaren’s lineup for those who cherish pure grand touring luxury.
This Ice Silver Metallic McLaren GT recently visited our Hawthorne, California facility, where it received a full suite of professional detailing services. At BPAS, we are renowned for combining meticulous craftsmanship with the latest in automotive protection technology, making us the go-to destination for exotic car enthusiasts. We specialize in multi-stage paint correction, ceramic coatings, and advanced paint protection film applications, all designed to preserve your car’s flawless finish while enhancing its aesthetic appeal. From exotic supercars to high-end luxury vehicles, we provide a level of care that ensures every car leaves looking showroom-new and fully protected against scratches, chips, and environmental damage.
One of the first steps in the McLaren GT’s transformation was the careful removal of old, previously-applied paint protection film from a different shop. This ensures that any imperfections beneath previous layers are corrected before applying new protective films. Following this, the vehicle underwent a full multi-stage paint correction to eliminate swirl marks, scratches, and minor imperfections, restoring the Ice Silver Metallic paint to its original brilliance. High-impact panels, which are more prone to rock chips and damage, received expert paint repair and refinishing to guarantee a flawless finish. After the correction, the GT was fully wrapped in XPEL Ultimate Plus paint protection film (PPF), providing a nearly invisible shield against road debris while maintaining the depth and shine of its factory paint.
In addition to paint protection, BPAS applied full vehicle XPEL Prime XR Plus nano-ceramic window tint. This not only enhances the McLaren GT’s sleek appearance but also improves interior comfort by reducing heat and UV exposure. The windshield received XPEL exterior protection film, and the bumper reflectors were treated with XPEL Slate Smoke protection film, combining aesthetics with functional durability. To complete the protection package, the GT received a full professional-grade ceramic coating across its body and wheel barrels, including calipers, providing long-lasting gloss, water beading, and resistance against contaminants.
This McLaren GT is fully protected, perfectly suited for daily driving, and looks absolutely striking. Every surface is fortified against chips, scratches, and environmental hazards, while the paint maintains a deep, showroom-level shine. The combination of advanced protection films, ceramic coatings, and expertly applied tints ensures that the car is not only safe on the road but also commands attention wherever it goes.
Beyond standard detailing, BPAS also enhanced the McLaren GT with additional performance-oriented protection features. A Scrape Armor installation on the front fascia ensures that vulnerable lower panels are shielded from curbs and road debris, a crucial addition for any vehicle with a low ride height. Each service is executed with precision and attention to detail, ensuring that the McLaren GT not only looks spectacular but is also fortified against the rigors of everyday driving. The combination of ceramic coatings, paint protection film, and custom protection films demonstrates BPAS’s commitment to preserving both beauty and value, keeping the GT in pristine condition for years to come.
