Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren
The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren is an Anglo-German sports car jointly developed by Mercedes-Benz and McLaren Automotive. Due to the presence of the automatic gear box, front mid-engined arrangement and its driving characteristics lead some commentators to classify the SLR McLaren as a GT whose rivals can be considered to be e.g. the Aston Martin V12 Vanquish and Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano.



SLR 722 Edition
The Mercedes-Benz 722 Edition was introduced in 2006 called the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 Edition. The "722" refers to the victory by Stirling Moss and his co-driver Denis Jenkinson in a Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR with the starting number 722 (indicating a start time of 7:22 a.m.) at the Mille Miglia in 1955. The SLR 722 can go from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) km/h in 3.6 seconds, 200 km/h (124 mph) in 10.2 seconds, and the SLR 722 can reach a top speed of 337 km/h (209 mph).
