Gulf Weekly Limited edition for Middle East

McLaren Special Operations (MSO) has confirmed production plans for a limited run of bespoke examples of the McLaren 650S following the strong reaction to the MSO 650S Coupe Concept shown in China earlier this year.

McLaren, partly-owned by Bahrain’s sovereign wealth fund, Mumtalakat, says just 50 examples of the MSO 650S will be available globally, available in either a Coupe or Spider bodystyle. Five of these will be sold in the Middle East region.

The exterior is fitted with a number of carbon fibre styling upgrades with a satin finish, including extended MSO Side Blades. The three-piece rear bumper includes a carbon fibre centre section, and sits above a more aggressive rear diffuser. 

Ian Gorsuch, Regional Director for Middle East and Africa, said: “This is testament to how talented MSO are in creating truly unique supercars that really stand out on the road, turning heads everywhere they go, and with only five examples of this bespoke 650S avaliable in the region, it will be highly desirable.”

Pricing starts at $355,185 (around BD134,000). First deliveries are due before the end of the year.
