2008 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren SLR V8 hand-built
Summary:
Simply the best
Faults:
Nothing has gone wrong with this fine automobile. Only the regular oil changes and such; the car is still brand new.
General Comments:
I have been waiting 1.5 years for the purchase of my breath-taking, devastatingly fast supercar. I chose the SLR after driving every new supercar available. (No, I did not test the Veyron, which I find appalling). I found the SLR to be superior in terms of comfort, engine noise, performance and godliness. It is a true long distance car, with race car tendencies.
I have never been beaten in a race. It surpasses all of my expectations of what a great supper should be. I have owned Ferrari and Aston, but this is far superior to all of them. It is a marvel of speed, sound and beauty.
It shall always sit between my original Gullwing 300SL, and my CLK GTR.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

GO FOR AN ENZO. The SLR looks cheap inside. A Pagani Zonda is more opulent. If I paid out 3-4 hundred k then I would want something better than the SLR. That's only my opinion.
