Mercedes SLR thoughts.

When some people see this car, they either panic because they never seen anything more beautiful than this, dump into their pants because they are jealous of someone else having this car, or go out and buy this car. When I see this car, I see nothing more than overpriced piece of mercedes junk. If you really think that this car looks nice, then you need to visit an ophthalmologist. First of all, it has a giant nose, which  makes it looks like stuck a viagra inside the frame. True, it looks better than the new SLS, which looks like a shemale prostitute that ran transported here from 70s. It's headlights are somehow not representing Mercedes. Its retro looks probably torment old grandpas. They probably remember their times back when they used to build pyramids, because that's how old the car looks. Anyways, this one looks better, obviously. This one is more powerful, but it's not better looking than any other car! If I were to buy a super car, I'd rather betray my pride and go out and buy Porche Carrera GT, than even sit, no, even look at this car. That's how I feel about the SLR.
Want to talk power? This car originally cost $450,000. But what you got under the hood was worth even less. McLaren does 0-60 in 3.6 average, 1/4 mile in 11.2 seconds at 130mph and has a top speed of 203 mph. On the skidpad, it does an impressive 1.16g. But is it faster than Nissan GTR? Let's keep in mind that GTR starts at 85 grand. It does 0-60 in 3.5 seconds, 1/4 mile in 11.5 seconds at 120mph, and a top speed of 198 miles an hour.  On the skidpad it does 1.12g, which is .04 gs less than McLaren. But, if you add about 2-3 grand for tuning the car, you will achieve better results, and will embarrass all the McLaren drivers.
This car has some speed, but the looks suffer a lot. Designers from Mercedes were probably under influence while designing this car.
