Official importer McLaren Kuala Lumpur has confirmed that the new Sports Series range – the 540C and 570S, which are now open for pre-order – will be priced from RM638,000, excluding duties and taxes.
Surprisingly, that's less than their prices in the UK - £126,000 (RM740,518) for the 540C, and £143,250 (RM841,899) for the 570S. This will all change once the duties and taxes are factors in, of course. Final official prices will be announced soon, says McLaren KL.
Tagged as the British sportscar maker's "entry-level" offerings, the Sports Series - as opposed to Super Series (650S Coupe and Spider) and Ultimate Series (P1 and P1 GTR) – are marketed to go against Porsche's top-end 911 models. Both are powered by twin-turbo 3.8 litre V8 engines, with power figures matching their model designations.
The 540C can get to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds, while the more hardcore 570S gets there 0.3 seconds earlier. Visually, the more expensive model gets a more generous usage of carbon-fibre, along with a larger diffuser.
