  |  McLaren SLR GTR in Holland! -

McLaren SLR GTR in Holland!  Like we already mentioned on the Dutch frontpage, the devils son has arrived at the Mercedes dealership in Utrecht. The SLR GTR is an amazing and track legal machine which drove an astonishing 7.38 lap at the German Nürburgring. We were present in Utrecht to snap some photos. The car will be present at the Dutch SL 63 AMG introduction along with four SLR Roadsters. Of course this car is far from being street legal. The SLR GTR only weighs 1390 kilos, that's 300 kilos less than the standard 722 and it's capable of reaching 315 kilometers per hour. Strangely, the top speed is lower than the standard 722 but the GTR is faster in reaching 100 km/h: 3.3 seconds, this is 0.3 seconds faster! Mercedes will only build 21 GTR cars which uses the same supercharged V8 as the normal 722. The GTR has 30 bhp and 10 Nm more than its streetlegal brother. Mercedes has created this SLR GTR for trackuse only and they set up a special competition called the SLR CLUB Trophy. They only race this monster in Europe so hopefully we're gonna see one in Zandvoort soon. If you fancy buying a GTR, be prepared to pay at least 800.000 euros! - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER Specs GTR versus a normal 722: 680 bhp vs 650 bhp 830 Nm vs 820 Nm 1390 kg vs 1624 kg 0-100 3.3 sec vs 3.6 sec Topspeed 315 km/h vs 337 km/h - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER |

If they had sold this from the beginning the SLR would have sold out years ago. This is one for the fantasy garage, in the next bay over from the CLK-GTR. M |

Ah - another one... The Mercedes McLaren SLR: the GT that tries so hard to be everything else that it isn't. |
