Someone Wants To Make A Fortune Off A McLaren Elva Build Slot

A few hundred thousand dollars would be enough to quench our car thirst for years to come, but when money is no issue, you start looking at the rarest and most exciting vehicles out there, like the McLaren Elva.

Part of the Ultimate Series, the British hypercar is limited to 399 examples, and one of them is up for grabs on Mobile, for an eye-watering €2,975,000, or $3,295,730 at today’s exchange rates.

Paying double the amount of the base MSRP will allegedly get you a build slot. Why did we say allegedly? That’s because the German used car dealer behind the ad claims the Elva will be available from April 30, 2020, whereas McLaren said that customer deliveries will commence towards the end of next year. Thus, we strongly suggest to read the papers in the presence of a lawyer and check with McLaren, too, you know, in case you have that much money at hand for a new set of wheels.

Aside from the new hypercar, which is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 that pumps out 804 hp and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque, and does the 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in under 3 seconds, the dealer has other vehicles in its portfolio. Nonetheless, none of them get anywhere close to the 7-digit territory, as they include a couple of Range Rovers, a few Mercedes-Maybachs, an AMG S63 and a GLE SUV, which at €44,000 ($48,745), is also the most affordable in the lot.
