2006 Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR
One of the most sought after cars in the world! Not many of these cars are produced each year and this McLaren SLR has over $11,460 in interior color options. From the detailed interior leather combinations to the unique exterior color, this vehicle will not only turn heads, it will stop people in their tracks. The exterior color is Crystal Palladium Gray, a rare combination of metallic paints. This modern day supercar travels from 0-60 in under 3.8 seconds and has a top speed of 208 MPH. It boasts a 5,439-cc, 24-Valve, 90 degree V-8 engine with 617HP @ 6,500 rpm. The fiberglass body panels keep this vehicle light and the ergonomic design of the interior prepares you for the experience of a lifetime as you push your foot down on the gas peddle.

A small correction in the item descrition. Instead of fiberglass the body panels are constructed of srong and lightweight Carbon Fiber. The trunk lid is fiberglass to allow for antenna transmisssion. Thank you for your interest.

The SLR is a car that is having an identity crisis. It doesn't know if it's a GT or a supercar. Whether it's interior is luxurious or sporty. Don't get me wrong, the performance numbers are stout. I just feel that they messed up on this car. It's too much of a niche car.

Wow that color makes it 
worthy! A few week ago I passed an SLR pulling into the MB stealership and man the exhaust note on that thing was pure evil even when it was coasting into the dealer, I love it!

need to find a video of that test.. anyone have a link?
serious though, for the money, I would take a different car too - a CGT. But I do think it has some exciting-ness to it.
It's handling prowess really amazed me, for being an MB and for being as heavy as it is..
