McLaren 570S Pricing: $184,900 in the US, £143,250 in the UK

Other than the Lincoln Continental Concept and the 2016 Cadillac CT6, one of the most important debuts from New York comes in the guise of the McLaren Sports Series. At first, the Sports Series family will be offered in entry-level 540C and full-on 570S guise.

With global deliveries slated to begin later this year, the McLaren Sports Series is one of the hottest supercars in its segment. To own such an interesting British beef, you’ll have to pay at least £126,000 for the McLaren 540C Coupe, a model set to debut later this month at the Auto Shanghai 2015. Unfortunately, US pricing for the baby Macca isn’t available yet.

Nevertheless, the 532 HP semi-skimmed Macca should wear a sticker price in the neighborhood of $160,000 by the time it arrives on US soil. As for the hell-bent for leather McLaren 570S, with a fixed carbon fiber roof and all, $184,900 or £143,250 is as low as you can go. To put that apparently high price into perspective, a 2015 Porsche 911 Turbo S is just two grand more.

When it comes to the exclusivity game and who is the most exotic looking machine, the McLaren wins both of them hands down. What about the oily bits? Well, the M838T 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-pane V8 engine is shared with the 650S, but approximately 30 percent of components have been changed.

With 570 PS (562 HP) and 600 Nm (443 lb-ft) on tap, the force-fed lump is able to propel the 1,313-kilo (2,895 lbs) supercar to 100 km/h (62 mph) in a staggering 3.2 seconds.

It will be interesting to see how much the 540C and 570S will do for the Woking-based marque in terms of yearly deliveries, more so because McLaren won’t do any crossover SUVs. If you want the Spider, you’ll have plenty of time to save money for one because inside intel hints towards a release date of sometime in 2017.
