Mercedes confirms drop-top SLR plans
McLaren and Mercedes-Benz have reportedly completed R&D on their new McLaren Mercedes SLR convertible. The car may be officially presented to the public within the next six months.
The new model will closely resemble the Mercedes-Benz Vision SLR concept (pictured), which debuted at the 1999 Frankfurt Motor Show, nine months after the coupe prototype was unveiled at the Detroit auto show.
Body of the SLR convertible will be built using the same composite materials, so do expect the same rigidity and strength as well as the same mind-numbing performance. And price. The car will cost you not less than $660,000, so you'd better start saving money right now.
