Cops catch supercar driver speeding 10 minutes after he leaves dealership

By Gary Gastelu | Fox News


McLaren's new sports car is pretty super

A Canadian man who couldn't drive 55, or even 56, ended up spending $36,300 per minute to take his new supercar for a spin.

The West Vancouver-area man was caught speeding in his $363,000 McLaren 600LT MSO just 10 minutes after picking it up from the dealership and had the car impounded, Global News Canada reported. Police say he was clocked doing 161 kph in a 90 kph zone on the Trans-Canada Highway. Those speeds convert roughly to 100 mph and 56 mph.

The 39-year-old was also fined $280 and had his car locked up for a week.

However, the impounded car is an even more hardcore version built by the McLaren Special Operations division that features additional carbon fiber parts to reduce weight, unique aerodynamic features and a signature roof-mounted air intake.

Yeah, saw that. I’m sure that aside from not being able to play with his new toy, the owner is not bothered much by the fine LOL.

Lucky he was on the west coast. Anything 50 km and over here, gets you a $2400.00 fine for stunting and six points.

If he was in Ontario, he would be in some serious trouble. Anything 50 km/h over the limit in Ontario is a $10,000 fine, roadside seizure of your vehicle, and (1) week in jail.

Yup, and No insurance company will touch you after this...

I love the fact Ontario lists the cost of the speed on the side of the road. I like to cruise control at 115 Bc their prices start at 120 kmph

Similar story but with fatal result last week in Swaziland (Switzerland): https://www.blick.ch/news/schweiz/m...o-es-tut-mir-unglaublich-leid-id15384423.html

In short: 23-old internet-yuppie test-drove it very aggressively, overtaking several cars with high risk, lost control. The drive of the bicycle is still in coma. I hope this bloddy mother****er ends up in jail for a very long time. What punishment would you expect in the US?

To be fair that per minute cost will drop consistently and quickly and I doubt that speeding ticket was more than cigarette money to the guy who had the McLaren.
