Areas for improvement: None
To begin with, this is probably the most beautiful car ever built by man.
The interior is perfect, at 6'1 it's snug for me, but that's what 2 seater's are like.
When it comes to performance, there's nothing like it.
The looks of a Mercedes make heads turn. The performance of a McLaren makes your head spin!
At 0-60 in a short 3.8 seconds, you'll be looking at a lot of cars in that rear view mirror.
At 617 hp, this beast really runs.
The handling is far superior to any of my Ferraris, Lambos or Porsches.
The roar of the engine, the looks, the speed, the thrill of a whole experience, is overwhelming.
Much better then sitting with a driver in my old Maybach.
The 13 mpg does empty my wallet though!
It is real expensive to run, but hey, there is no such thing as a cheap super car.
If you're one of those few with 400 to 500 grand and are stuck between an Enzo, Carrera GT, Murcielago, and an SLR, GO FOR AN SLR!!!
The running costs for Mercedes SLR 5.5 litre V8 Automatic are high
