Road&Track`s review of the SLR

GTA8.5 · 05-11-2006, 04:01 PM

"in the SLR, everything happens quickly. Acceleration is astonishing, cornering grip is phenomanal, and the brakes amaze me."

0-60mph 3.5sec./ 1-100mph 7.5sec. top speed 207mph.

No, this is the same Komprssor V8. The powerboosted SLR will be released later this year I believe.

I second that Artist! I also agree with Just_me about the presence!
The SLR has almost twice the presence of even the Ferrari 599 GTB,
it looks twice as expensive. Only the Buagtti Veyron surpasses the SLR as the most expensive looking supercar imo.

yep agree with you..gotta add the zonda in there also..it looks damn exotic and expensive

I bet Artist is going to say Zonda instead of veyron

The Artist · 05-11-2006, 05:23 PM
