 Coming back to the thread, if money is not an object, Chevy is not a replacement for Merc!

| Re: C6 ZR-1 vs. C199 SLR 722 I knew my choice of the "Chevy" would cause a raucous. I'm over the SLR coupe so unless its a roadster I'll take the "Chevrolet". Sorry fellow MB fans. M

| Re: C6 ZR-1 vs. C199 SLR 722 I`d go for the SLR 722.. give me the droptop! the SLR 722 convertible might be one of the sexiest convertibles ever made! If price is no concern to you, than your most likely going to go all out for yourself with no compromises. If thats your aim, it doesn`t get any better than this!

| Re: C6 ZR-1 vs. C199 SLR 722 Indeed Artist! The only droptop that can really compete with the SLR is the Ferrari 599 droptop. The design work of the rollbars and domes behind the seats is very heavy-handed, making the car look like a go Kart IMO. Not suitable of such a hi-priced car. It`s no way near as sleek and sexy as the SLR 722 droptop!

| Re: C6 ZR-1 vs. C199 SLR 722 Oh lOl, most likely it will come.. probably at the end of the cars`life cycle (but maby before that). Much like what Ferrari did with the 575... I`m pretty sure.... I found this article btw... Posts tagged Ferrari 599 convertible at Autoblog
