The McLaren 540C is a proper supercar wrapped in a sleek, aerodynamic shell, boasting a 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8 engine producing 540 horsepower. It rockets from 0 to 100 km/h in about 3.5 seconds, which is embarrassingly quick for any traffic light showdown. The car's carbon fibre chassis keeps the weight down to around 1,380 kg, ensuring nimble handling and a thrilling drive. Inside, it's a minimalist's dream with just enough tech to keep you connected but not distracted from the road.
New, the 540C would set you back roughly AUD 300,000+, while used examples can be found on Tradingpost and CarShowroom starting around AUD 180,000 depending on condition and mileage. Common gripes include a firm ride that’s less forgiving on Aussie potholes, and some owners note the infotainment system feels a tad outdated compared to rivals.
