New Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Roadster ready

September 30th, 2008

Sports car enthusiasts looking for a vehicle with a thrust for speed should look no further than the new Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Roadster 722 S.

Going from 0-62 mph in 3.7 seconds and having the engine to reach a top-speed of 208 mph, the two-seater surpassed the benchmarks set by other open-top super sports cars.

However, it is not just a car with power in abundance.

Also, the vehicle benefits from dynamic suspension tuning and improved aerodynamics, while its sporty interior provides comfort and a distinctive motorsport pedigree.

Included in the power machine is a 5.5 litre V8 engine, hand built by Mercedes-Benz to offer extraordinary responsiveness and a unique V8 sound.

The new vehicle excels beyond the general Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Roadster, the previous benchmark for open-top sports cars.

This vehicle took a lot of its styling elements from the classic SLR racing cars of the 1950s and were blended in with design and aerodynamics typically seen in formula one.
