Daily Driving a Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR 101

By -

If you’ve ever been curious about what it’s like to daily-drive a McLaren SLR, Doug DeMuro is here for you.

The Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR is one of the most majestic cars to ever sport the three-pointed star. The long hood, the gorgeous side gills, the exhaust position, and the incredible turbine wheels all add up to an exquisite work of art. But, unlike other supercars from that era, the SLR never really got the credit it deserved.

One of our favorite YouTube personalities, Doug DeMuro, understands that. In the video above, he explains a few reasons why that happened. In addition, he gets the unique opportunity to get up close and personal with a stunning black SLR in Nashville, Tennessee. Doug goes on to show small details that most of us would’ve never known, such as how to open the hood, or hidden storage compartments.

Perhaps our favorite feature of this forgotten supercar is its front fascia, which bears a strong resemblance to the Formula One Silver Arrows of that time. That fascia looks even better in motion. After a brief introduction, Doug heads to the open road to find out what the SLR is really all about.
