This 2019 McLaren Senna XP has just gone up for sale and it’s one special supercar.
It’s one of three, one-of-one Sennas developed from pre-production prototypes by McLaren Beverly Hills and McLaren Special Operations (MSO).
The cars commemorate highlights from racing driver Ayrton Senna’s tenure with the McLaren Formula One team.

This particular example – the Home Victory Edition – celebrates Senna’s first F1 victory in his home country at Interlagos in 1991.
It wears a green carbon-fiber finish with green and yellow accents, and replica Ayrton Senna signatures.
The electronically adjustable rear wing acts as an airbrake and features a Brazilian flag graphic along with yellow #1 accents on the matte carbon-fiber wing endplates.

It’s also got a Formula One-inspired roof scoop, front and side air intakes, rear air louver, and a double-element rear diffuser.
The 19” front and 20” rear center-lock wheels, which are wrapped in Pirelli P Zero tires, feature green and yellow nuts.
Stopping power is provided by green-finished six- and four-piston aluminum monobloc calipers over 390mm carbon-ceramic rotors front and rear.
Twin-hinge dihedral doors open to reveal a cockpit featuring green-tinted carbon-fiber bucket seats.
Those bucket seats are upholstered in green leather with yellow contrast stitching, pinstriping and embroidered Brazilian flags on the headrests.
The steering wheel is trimmed in black leather with green-tinted carbon-fiber accents and a green and yellow 12 o’clock markers.
There’s even a plaque listing the car as a one-of-one is affixed to the driver-side door jamb.
The twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 is a modified version of the engine found in the 720S, with factory-rated output 789bhp and 590 lb-ft of torque.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch SSG automatic transaxle.
