Gautam Singhania is a well-known petrol head and Managing Director of Raymond. We have seen him doing races and even drifting his vehicles. He owns a long list of exotic vehicles. One of those vehicles is a McLaren 720S supercar. The exotic sports car was recently spotted on the roads of Mumbai.
The 720S was spotted by CS 12 Vlogs and the video has been uploaded on YouTube. In the video, we can see that the 720S is now finished in a nice shade of green. Gautam must have wrapped the supercar because, in the previous sightings, the 720S was finished in white colour.

The 720S is powered by a 4-litre V8 that has been twin-turbocharged. The engine can produce 720 PS of max power and a massive 770 Nm of peak torque. It is mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox.
The supercar weighs just under 1.5 tonnes which means it is quite light and gives the 720S some absurd performance figures. It can hit a ton in just 2.8 seconds and has a top speed of 341 kmph!
It has active aerodynamics which means that the rear wing is active and changes angle depending on the speed, turning angle, braking etc. This helps in increasing downforce and decreasing braking distance too. Moreover, there are air intakes everywhere to smoothen out the airflow as well as cool down the engine.
Being an exotic sports car, the interior gets leather and Alcantara. McLaren has also used a lot of carbon fibre which not only makes the car look sporty but also helps in saving a lot of weight.
Gautam Singhania owns a lot of exotic cars
Ferrari 348 GTB
The 348 GTB is a modern classic and is a two-seater Berlinetta model. It comes with a naturally aspirated, 3.4-litre V8 that has been mounted behind the driver. The engine produced 320 PS of max power and 310 Nm of peak torque. It was mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox that transferred the power to only the rear wheels. The 348 GTB could hit a ton in 5.8 seconds and had a top speed of 275 kmph. Only 252 examples of the GTB version were ever made because of which it is quite rare.
Mustang Mach-1
Mustang Mach-1 is one of the newer vehicles that Singhania has bought. At the Valley Run 2021, he was spotted drifting the muscle car. The Mustang has been heavily modified. The exact specs of the modified Mustang are not known but the video says it produces around 1300 bhp.
BMW M3
Mr. Singhania has also been spotted drifting in a heavily modified E46 M3. This video was also shot at the Valley Run 2021. The M3 is fitted with an LS3 Supercharged V8 engine derived from the Chevrolet Corvette. The transmission unit has been sourced from Tremec. It has a Magnaflow exhaust and it sounds ravaging as we can hear it in the video.
Pontiac Trans AM
It seems like Gautam Singhania favours American muscle cars. He owns a Pontiac Trans AM which is very rare now. It is a 1973 model and has been spotted quite a few times at automobile exhibitions or shows.
