I think BMW-M-Mexico does a really bad job of trolling. It's not funny or even slightly creative.

That Forged fellow on the otherhand...

Yep! Ain´t that all that matters? If it weren't, then everyone would own a Nissan GTR.

Why would they own a GTR? So the tranny can break and leave them with a 20k dollar bill?

No thanks

I'm personally not a big fan of red 'Vettes....reminds me too much of a guy going through his mid-life crisis and trying to impress too much. But damn...that red vette above looks real nice.

Oh damn...I just realized that my age is close to mid-life crisis age. Sigh.

The more I think of it...I think the SL63 is a great cruiser car. Makes a great burble noise from the exhausts...you can put the top down when you want... The type of car you wouldn't mind driving late at night with the crisp fall air...with the air scarf on.

The ZR1 is the car I would take for days I really feel like hustling...and if I was doing some track days. But then again...no worthy tracks near our house to really exploit its potential.

On 6speed. 29K miles asking 60K. DRoooooool.

The up keep costs could be hair raising on that V12 TT, but damn 60K for a baby SLR.

Sticker: $185,620.00
Curb: 4494 lbs
604hp
784 trq
0-60 If you can hook up, 3.9 secs
1/4 " ", 11.9 secs @ 123 mph.

Then put the top down and go for a drive.

I've never been a fan of the SL's. I'm not impressed with their "handling" at all. I feel like i'm riding in a big boat. You can't disguise the feel of 4200lbs.

^ I never considered the 65 or 600 a track or tossable car but it would sure be a nice "special" car to have. I would buy that 65 above in a heart beat. The V12 TT hand built by one guy is pretty unique.

I'll take both, but If i had to choose one, it would be the ZR1.

For those that like the styling and badge above all, then just put the LS9 from the ZR1 in the Merc. Now you can look good (subjective) and be fast! lulz!!!!

Don't flame! The above statement was a complete joke! I would never basterdize either car.

Too bad some people can't get past the fact the the "Whee doggy, crack me open another brewski, I'm gonna watch JR. does some burnouts at Daytona", "white trash" chevy just basiclly blews the doors off of all of its compeditors. So those people bring up the "Well, its just not a Mercedes-Benz" "I have little windshield wipers that keep my headlights clean in a rainstorm".
