Too much money lying about in the bank? Here’s a relatively good way for you to spend it – both the McLaren 540C and 570S are now available for pre-order as announced by McLaren Kuala Lumpur. The two models hail from the British carmaker’s Sports Series range, an “entry-level” tier that sits below the Super Series (650S Coupe and Spider) and Ultimate Series (P1 and P1 GTR).
The Sports Series range kicks off with the McLaren 540C, which was unveiled at the 2015 Shanghai Motor Show. Looks wise, it’s almost identical to its bigger brother, the 570S, save for the inclusion of mildly reworked aero package and unique alloy wheels – 19-inch units in front, 20-inch at the rear. The 540C is motivated by a twin-turbo 3.8 litre V8 engine with 540 PS and 540 Nm of torque.
Paired to a seven-speed seamless shift gearbox (SSG), the 540C rockets from nought to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds and on to a top speed of 320 km/h. As for the McLaren 570S, it employs the same mill, albeit with a stronger state of tune. As a result, it is endowed with 570 PS and 600 Nm of twist – straight-line performance includes a century sprint time of 3.2 seconds and a top whack of 328 km/h.
At launch, the McLaren 540C is priced from £126,000 (RM740,518) while the 570S carries a heavier price tag of £143,250 (RM841,899). Deliveries for the former will commence at the start of next year.

somehow these McLaren models make me think of iPhone 5S & 5C…
I saw this on the road yesterday in TTDI!
Same orange color. Cannot see the number plate since it had the fancy very small letters.
Stunning to look at.
I think u spotted a 650S … Pretty sure there’s none in Malaysia yet.
Thanks, you could be right.
Price with tax?! If yes, then i expect a lot of orders coming for those models.
looks and scissor doors will definitely turn heads…
cute pocket rocket…
I have seen a black 650S on the road. Maybe is the colour, I didn’t find it very attractive, too “american” in the look. But the sound was great.
In terms of look, I still like the original Mclaren F1 with 3 seats. That car is still in my all time top 10 list.
it’s embarrassing when the door opens up like that…everybody stares at u like alien out fr spaceship…
Well done for those exotic car company. Only those rich tycoon will be able to bought those car since the price tag is way too much for ordinary ppl like most of us. In order to buy this car, the driver will have to master the car 1st. Exotic sport car will be totally different experience when driving it. Most of the cases will be lost control over its powerful engine and some more road condition that causes this car very tough to drive. Most ppl who own exotic cars only drive on special occasion. Those who dream for those car will glance at it if we saw it.
