2006 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren review from North America
"Powerful and sleek"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
This auto is nothing short of spectacular. I will make a few things clear here. This is my fathers car and so far he has had it for nearly three months. I wish i did own it and i wish i knew where my father hid the key to it when he is not around. He is smart, he hides his key from his 11 year old son when he visits from college. I have been passenger a few times in the car and only have driven it once. I can say one thing, whether or not you actually belive me becuase i know that there are multiple false reviews here, this car is amazing. simply amazing. The power and looks of the car are amazing as well as the handling. It handles and drives with ease regardless of the speed. I cannot compare the SLR to any other sport car in its range since this would be the families first super car. My father perviously owned rolls royces and this would be his first super car. He felt a change since he retired and decided to see the world of a super car rather than a luxury automobile If anyone has any questions, please comment and i will be glad to answer them.
