In the words of Lando Calrissian, “What have we here?!”
What we have is Mercedes going a little crazy time with the SLR again. This is what, the 3rd? 4th?, something like that, time that Merc has rolled out a custom version of their (and McLaren’s) uber-car, the SLR. In this instance it’s the SLR Stirling [...]
Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 S Roadster
The latest (and probably last) iteration of the SLR McLaren called the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 S Roadster gets a ridiculously powerful 5.5 liter supercharged V8 boasting 650 horsepower, 605 lb/feet of torque, a 0-62 mph time of 3.7 seconds, and a top speed of 220 mph, making it the [...]
The run of the Mercedes SLR McLaren supercar will soon come to an end, but that doesn’t mean that Mercedes is going to let it die quietly. Oh no.

“McLaren Readying Ferrari F430 Adversary” or so says the good folks at CarScoop. This has been in the wings, and on again/off again (depending on the relationship between McLaren & Mercedes) for awhile.
My first thought was, “Yeah, McLaren wants it to build a Ferrari F430 adversary, but they got a long way to go to [...]
Back in March I wrote a post listing the 10 Fastest Cars in the World. It was hugely popular (and still is,) but I’ve received so many comments telling me that the list isn’t accurate anymore. I plan to do another comprehensive post on this in the future, but for now here is a quick [...]
So here we are, the list of the top 10 fastest production cars in the world, ranked by top speed. All the cars you would expect are on the list, ranked from fastest to slowest (though calling any of these cars slow is blasphemy.) We start the list with the king of fast.
Update: I’d like [...]
