From the side, it cuts a Viper-like silhouette, while from the front it is very SL. Hope the nose doesn't fnd its way to the SL anytime soon.

I've seen some spy pics of the SL with an updated F1 nose.. really hating it.

They also made the SLR more stubby, than in the Vision concept.. if you've noticed.. not much of a fan of it, but it's alright.

But I agree, the SLR does have an American muscle-car side profile

A couple of thoughts:

Definitely not a convertible, as expected...
Great silouhette with side exhausts!!
Incredible amount of shared interior components with the SL (somewhat not very exclusively looking)...

*nod*

Looks pretty cool, but i'm not a fan of the side exhaust, nor the interior. Also the rims don't look that hot for a super car. And the spoiler at 56mph? Could they pick another random speed
