  • clear title

    The most amasing performance in a car that I have ever driven. Some body design features are taken from my 300 SL Gullwing, like doors and exhaust pipes positions. Having 600+ horse power, no wonder it is street fastest car 0 to 60. Very comfortable interior for a couple of normal size persons. trunk space is more than suffucient for the luggage.

  • Best Car in the World!!!

    This is the best car I've bought!!! I have 6000 miles in my SLR McLaren already, which I've bought July 2006. It's a great, luxury car. Excellent overall, and great! I would definately recommend this car to a friend of mine. I would recommend buying this car with all the options. It'll avoid harsh problems later on in its life!!! I think the SLR McLaren is the full class luxury car. Mercedes-Benz finally did something cool...Making the SLR McLaren was it. The McLaren should be your number 1 choice on your Christmas list!
