I heard they have one here in OC at the LAguna dealer.
Those pedals look cheap..same ones as in my C230K?

the front of that thing looks soooo long. Lots of drool factor on that thing though.

WOw !! thanks for the great real live photos !!! That makes my mouth watered :p If that costs 4 million HK$ in USA, it will cost 6 million in HK. I am not sure whether MB is really good at designing the interior of a 6 million super-supercar; it is neither looked very luxury nor very sporty. May be just the photo color does not come out correctly....

I went in to service my 1k mile ckup today and my salesman took me in the back where they had one (SLR) locked up....they are asking a cool $1.3 million for it!! ....he also said whoever buys it, the dealer is also throwing in a Maybach 57!!! so essentially a buyer is getting both vehicles at approximately MSRP.....give or take

Not quite. Both vehicles at MSRP would be about ~$820,000 .... So 1.3 Million is a ways away from that.

Still one of the best deals out there considering Keyes European is asking 2 million just for the SLR alone.

The base car? I don't think there is a sunroof available on the SLR. Name one supercar that does have a sunroof?

yes you are right in that its removable. im pretty sure ferrari calls it the removable sunroof option. not too practical if you ask me but its a sunroof on a super car nonetheless.

thats a good question though about if it would even be possible to have a sunroof on the SLR with those doors. i have no idea.
