It doesn't function. It's the original owners left nut encased in billet aluminum. He had to part with it as the down payment LOL!

Honestly, I like the SLR as well as the CL and CLS much better than this! Even the SLS... Just my two cents though, but, obviously, my opinion isn't shared by many... And give me a McLaren F1 any day over this!

Actually, the CLK GTR which you posted the picture of is NOT the true race car... It was produced as their road car!

CLK-GTR > SLR > SL65 Black

In my humble opinion of course.

I have worshipped the "clock guitar" ever since I was a 12 year old kid and saw it on the original Need for Speed for PSX.

You have it the other way around, the Zonda takes the engine from the GTR, and has AMG make it to their specs.

The technology in that engine at its time was way ahead of the rest
