With a few different automotive makers taking a pass on the upcoming Detroit Auto Show, the Mercedes Benz and McLaren partnership has offered a bright spot as they look to present their SLR Stirling Moss, the last car to be produced under the MB/McLaren union. A first glance at the car’s exterior features an innovative long-reaching frame with a special windshield-less experience for an unsurpassed road experience. With a legendary racing pedigree, the SLR also pays homage to British race car driver Stirling Moss, who’s still the current record holder for the Mille Miglia. On a performance side of things, the SLR Stirling Moss will make the sprint of 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds and achieve a top speed of 217 mph despite the seemingly unaerodynamic cockpit.

    This car is kind of dope but unfortunately from the side it looks uneven since the seats are so far back haha. Like the car is freakishly too long in the front. From the top angle it looks nice.
