These YouTubers from Tennessee bought a wrecked McLaren Senna and are now trying to restore it to its former glory.
The supercar was involved in a severe crash after the driver lost control of the Senna and crashed into a Lexus dealership.
Unfortunately, the front end of the car got completely wrecked in the crash.
So, restoring this million-dollar supercar will require much work and patience.

Rebuilding a rare Mclaren Senna
The wrecked McLaren Senna was bought by the Goonzquad — YouTubers known for their videos about rebuilding and restoring cars.
It originally belonged to another YouTuber, Edmond ‘Mondi’ Barseghian, who went viral for crashing his Senna into a wall.
They bought the car for $351,000, including $24,000 auction fees, which is a fraction of its original cost.
It’s not the first time they have bought a supercar on a whim, as they once ended up buying a Corvette ZR1 looking for paint colors.
However, these two American brothers bought the McLaren and dubbed it the ‘craziest financial decision’ they’ve ever made.
Their goal is to restore it to factory specifications.
Time and money
But restoring the car completely could take months or even years and cost quite a fortune.
Initially, the supercar had a damaged carbon fiber tub, wheels, suspension, and body panels.
Regardless of the trouble, the duo immediately got to work on restoring the car.
The first thing they did was an entire teardown of the wrecked McLaren Senna to see which parts needed to be replaced.
They also found some great leads on some new parts by talking to the previous owner.
Fixing totaled supercars is not an easy task.
However, the duo has previously also rebuilt a Lamborghini Aventador at an amazingly low cost.
So, if anyone can restore this McLaren Senna, it’s them.
