Supercar of the union of McLaren with Mercedes, the Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren can have the counted days, according to affirms Martin Whitmarsh de McLaren. The low indices of sales could suppose an incentive to create a new one more to supercar, this time with the name of McLaren, and looking for the reputation that obtained McLaren F1.

The in charge factory would be the same one that at the moment constructs to the cars of the Formula the 1 and SLR, the McLaren’s Working Center, located in London.

there will be a FL ive seen it

I say bting it on!!! Great news!!

They arent talking about a face lift, i believe they are talking about an entirely new model more McLaren F1 based... At least that what i got from the article.

yeah i know..i just wanted to tell everyone that ive seen the FL..haha shame on me

PS
I hope it goes under the mclaren name so that it could be more sporty than the SLR

i still don't get the "low indices of sales".....when i went on a tour of the mclaren technology centre the slr section was packed.....they had slr bodys like in the corridor waiting to go in to the main room......
although selling in small amounts is not that bad because i suppose it means the buyers will get higher prices if they ever sell them haaaa!!!!

Yes, but i guess the sales are just not good enough. I think its a good idea personally.

I think anything close to the McLaren F1 in design philosophy and performance would cease to be a Mercedes-Benz, so if they pull it off right I'll be the first to give them props (since I like them least among German manufacturers).

Well I'm not surprised the SLR is not selling all that well. The truth is, Mercedes-Benz, although a great manufacturer, is not in the business of building "dream cars" or supercars - Mercedes re-built it's [post-war] reputation by making practical luxury cars (with a couple of notable exceptions) for a relatively conservative market - The successor to the SLR should not be named a Mercedes, but rather just McLaren (as the article suggests) - this alone will help the cars image. Mercedes should leave this market to Pagani, Ferrari, and Porsche - they just do it better.

I'll believe it when I see pictures of it testing. Untill then all it is is just speculation that sounds suspiciously like the P8 project.
