*REAL LIFE* Mercedes Benz SLR mclaren ($400,000 Car) *pix*
The Mercedes Benz Dealership in Downtown Columbus has one in their showroom. We went there to buy my mom a new mercedes and I found myself drooling over the supercar in the showroom. I took pics with my cameraphone they will be up later on tonight. And the pictures DO NOT do the car the justice it deserves.
I was likethen :jerkit: then

Well shit, those stock parts made the sentra pin the 1.5bar boost gauge, by 2800rpm. Looks like nissan cant handle stock benz parts.
It still falls short of the Carrera GT.Also, you CANNOT register it in Georgia. I bet nobody knew that.

Val for president!
Yes, I would have voted for her.
In loving memory of Valerie Antranikian.
Supposidly you cannot register in GA because the exhaust exits in front of the cockpit. I am trying to find the GA code on it, but you get the idea. There is supposidly 6 states that this affects: Georgia, Maryland, Missouri, Virginia, Vermont and Wisconsin

Styling doesn't appeal to me one bit.
Seems as if the styling dept. added as much vents as possible so it would be classified as a "super car."
Leisa and S. 4 Life NM?
they can call it whatever the fuk they want.. super car.. super duper car .. whatever.. If you pay $400,000.00 for one i sure as hell would give some label of that nature
Yeah we drove by there once and I was like !!!! and everyone in the car turned, including the driver, which entailed an illegal lane change lol.
$488,000 pushes 617 whp stock, 0-60 in 3.8 not sure of the top speed but speedometer goes to 220
Actually, 617hp to the engine, not to the wheels. Big difference there.

Just what I read on some websiteActually, 617hp to the engine, not to the wheels. Big difference there.
Ruiner if you ever catch me in real life remind me to show you my picture and tell my story regarding a carrera GT.

Why can't it be registered in GA?
Because the exhaust exits in front of the cockpit.

I'd take a CGT over an SLR anyday. Porsche > Benz.

damn theres a law about that? whoops.... oh and mongol columbus is like 2hrs from here, we were somewhere on the northside of atlanta.

I wonder how much they would charge you if you went up and dropkicked it's side view mirror off? What do yall think, $500?
Hellz yea. Also...throw a cup of "vagina slime" onto the front seat to top it off.
lol. I won the haters ball last year, so since I cant afford the car, I can afford the side view mirror.
the srt-10, roush mustang, or any car modified to have side exhaust should be illegal in that case
im pretty sure that if it came stock with and exhaust somewhere other than exiting the ass end then it would be legal...

I saw one of those at a Benz dealership in Brussels. It was the nicest dealership I've ever seen. They had the SLR McLaren in the showroom, then in the room nextdoor there was the stretch version of the Maybach, and downstairs they had one of each model Benz that they sold in Europe.
Pictures truly dont do the Mclaren or the Maybach justice and seeing them both under the same room blew my mind.

there's one up in buford. he actually came in my work last week. not sure where it was registered, but shit looked hot!
Sorry, but if I had half a million to spend on a car, it would NOT be spent on a Benz that is, in my opinion, fugly. The rear end is hot, but then you go around the the front and it looks like a clusterfuck of four different designer's ideas all mashed together. If I was gonna look at spending a half mil on a car, I'd look into the prancing horse... God bless the prancing horse.
2006 F430.. same price as benz, but with so much more class, and better looks, too!
Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
The MSRP for an '06 F430 is anywhere from $170-220k depending on coupe vs convertible. :confused: The SLR is more than 2x the price of Ferrari F430...Sorry, but if I had half a million to spend on a car, it would NOT be spent on a Benz that is, in my opinion, fugly.

My thing is, besides the body being made of Carbon Fiber, about 10hp, and the novelty of the SLR how does Mercedes really justify the $200,000 price increase over the SL65 which is actually a better looking car to me.. I know there are other differences between the two but I dont see a $200,000 difference. I guess once you get into that price range it doesn't matter either way, personally I would take a Carrera GT over the SLR.
The pictures look cool though and thanks for posting them
