2009 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren

Mercedes-Benz and McLaren are adding the crowning glory to the model
family of their highly successful SLR super sports car with a new,
uncompromisingly spectacular car. There is neither a roof nor a
windscreen to separate the driver and passenger from the outside world;
they enjoy unadulterated high-speed excitement with all the attributes
of a speedster. The new SLR Stirling Moss is also characterised by the
most sophisticated technology and a breathtaking design which
reinterprets the SLR legend. With 478 kW/650 hp the SLR Stirling Moss
accelerates its V8 supercharged engine from standstill to 100 km/h in
less than 3.5 seconds, and has a top speed of 350 km/h - no other
series-production car is at the same time so open and so fast. This
extreme concept makes the new high-performance sports car a legitimate
bearer of the name of the British motor racing legend and Mille Miglia
record-holder Stirling Moss, who drove the legendary Mercedes-Benz SLR
racing cars from victory to victory in 1955. The exclusive SLR Stirling
Moss rounds off the current SLR family and is limited to 75 units. It
is priced at 750,000 euros. The SLR Roadster will cease to be
manufactured at the end of May 2009 as planned, and production of the
SLR Stirling Moss will commence in June 2009.
