Produced between 2003 and 2009 in limited numbers, the Mercedes-Benz SLR was a joint project between the German company and McLaren. At the time, Mercedes owned 40 percent of the British firm and the two automakers teamed up to create one of the greatest grand tourers in the history of the automotive industry. Just 2,157 examples were assembled in coupe, roadster, and speedster body styles. One of these units is now officially modified by the McLaren Special Operations division.
After the production of the SLR officially ended in 2009, McLaren decided the car deserves special attention and the brand’s MSO branch offered upgrades for 25 customer cars. The car you will see in the video here is a bit different as it was sent to MSO just recently for some visual and mechanical tweaks. This SLR is owned by Manny Khoshbin, a real estate mogul, who owns not one, not two, but nine SLRs from different years of production and with different specifications.
