Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Final Edition
WOW... I have been in love with the McLaren SLR since the vision SLR concept was unveiled by Mercedes in 1999. Its first model was relased in 2003 and arrived in this country in early 2004 after it had undergone subtle aerodynamic modifications to improve 150-plus-mph stability. The car was styled by two Germans: Steffen Köhl and Gorden Wagener, the SLR was engineered under Gordon Murray: the South African engineer responsible for co-developer McLaren's landmark F1 supercar. You know, back then, mechanics claimed that at top speed, the car can travel from Johannesburg (South Africa) to Cape Town (SAME COUNTRY) in four hours. What a timesaver, shedding off 10 hours of your trip :). I wonder how fast the 2012 model can travel to and fro. 'Obviously' this test cannot be tried due to the many linear and traffic restrictions on our roads. I say we go for it :)
Here are some images of the previous models. Hit the link at the end to view the latest creation. In my eyes, it is Mercedes that beats the Bendz :)
