In a jaw-dropping automotive spectacle, a Ghanaian man recently made waves on social media by clearing his mantis green 2023 McLaren 720S from the Tema Port in Accra.
The luxury car, with a starting price of $336,000, has been the talk of the town, and for good reason. Let’s delve into the details of this high-octane phenomenon.
The McLaren 720S is not your run-of-the-mill sports car. It’s a symphony of engineering prowess, aerodynamic finesse, and raw power. Here are some key highlights:
Performance: With a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the 720S catapults from 0 to 60 mph in a blistering 2.8 seconds. It’s like strapping a rocket to your back.
Design: The sleek lines, dihedral doors, and aggressive stance make the 720S a head-turner. The mantis green color adds an exotic touch, ensuring it stands out even in a sea of luxury cars.
Interior: Slide into the cockpit, and you’re greeted by a minimalist yet futuristic cabin. Carbon fiber accents, Alcantara upholstery, and a driver-focused layout create an immersive experience.
GH¢920,000 duty fee paid by the McLaren owner to clear the car. That’s a staggering amount, equivalent to the dreams of many Ghanaians.
Social media erupted with opinions:

@OriginalObeng: “Lowkey, we’ve normalized this outrageous duty thing. Them dey kee we.”
