I swear my dealer said the one he has in stock he wants $350k for...not sure if it's used or I heard him wrong...I didn't realize they still commanded that much money.

Always wondered, if you are going to blow that much on a sportscar, why not get Ferrari or Lamborghini. Also, wouldn't that be funny trying to negotiate a lease on that car? 50k down, 6k a month only 10k miles a year

Not that I like the SLR (I think it's ugly :o), but it's a different car from any Lamborghini and even Ferrari's 612 Scaglietti. It's by far a better grand tourer, not to mention far more expensive than any volume Ferrari or Lamborghini.

from your comments i can only assume you know little about this car.
lamborghini's best offering doesn't really compare and as for ferrari you would need an enzo which would cost much much more

Nope, not at the moment, but I grew up in Philly and go back often. I've considered moving back to the Philly area and working at MB of West Chester. Very nicely built dealership they have built there.

Some guy who lives near my house has one and it seems to be his daily driver, it's a cool car but even if I had the money, the SLR wouldn't be at the top of my list either.
