The chrome?
Seriously. How much would chrome plating add to the weight? I’d guess a few hundred pounds.
No front windshield. It tries to imitate the original SLR, but this rendering is definetely not the production version.
That penis looks like a car.
Late entry in the 2008 Fuglies.
Yep. A windshield would be nice.
Um…Callaway’s Speedster kinda looks better?
I was going to say “why spend $200k+ on a penis when the one I have is priceless?” but someone beat me to a dick joke.
Pininfarina’s been there, with the Enjoy Concept.

And they developed special helmets with intercom to avoid using a windscreen.

It has wheels that look like they are from a late 90’s Pontiac. In fact, with all the cladding, it could be a Pontiac. Drive Excitement.
The little Mercedes-logo windup knob in the grill is a nice touch but it’s too small for my fingers.
Nothing
It’s the car Ace and Gary drive from SNL
Having to wear a helmet in a street legal $300k car FTL… Unless the windshield magically appears at the push of a button. (Now why wouldnt that suprise me?)
I always loved Speedster designs, but I agree, this thing needs a low-profile speedster-style windshield–it just looks kind of stunted this way.
And being rendering, I hope the front end looks slightly less bulbous on the real thing. The spy photos looked better than this.
You can do 200mph+ while distorting your face but still not have as much fun if you had a Lotus 7 or Ariel Atom?
It’s front wheel drive based on the upcoming redesigned Mercedes “A” Class platform.
Or maybe not.
A red “722” is missing from the door? The interior is not a blue plaid?
There will be enough wildlife in your hair to film an episode of Badger Watch, and your epiglottis will be full of bees?
That ugly thing in the middle of the photo?
The wasted effort to create a version of a car that already no one was buying?
What’s wrong? It’s a Hot Wheel, not a real car?
THE AMBIGUOUSLY GAY DU-O!!!!!!
It’s a photochopped C&D “Tin Toy”?
That BMW has a Mercedes Badge on it.
its that ugly ass sterling moss slr. hopefully it doesnt go into production. if it does iam guessing it will cost 800k or some eye watering price. and y is the hood so long? is there like a v16 under the hood or somethin?
It has been given Lego wheels: http://shop.lego.com/ByTheme/Product.aspx?p=8148&cn=33&d=261
That, and someone should have noticed those exposed pop-rivets…
Besides the lack of a windsheild that everyone has said the exhaust is infront of and above the rear rocker, I’m pretty sure that does not make it legal for sale in the US but at a minumum half a dozen states will not let you register it when the inspection notices that. Dumb rule but a real rule none the less that can make that car a garage queen that can never be allowed on the road. Not that it will be drive on the road anyhow, oddly people who buy million dollar cars never drive them. The lack of a windsheild might be a hang up in legality also but I’m not 100% sure of that.
It’s LHD?
Er, it’s got a live axle?
/ducks
I haven’t seen this much phallic symbology since reading Michener’s The Source
Siku does not usually pay so much attention to, and manufacture, such nicely detailed wheels.
Mercedes borrowed the design from an old Speed Racer episode?
pretty much everything about the picture is wrong.
i really dislike the side sill treatment and the car as a whole looks like a mudskipper
Chooo-Chooo! I’m a locamotive!
“I’m Batman”
say it again
“I’m Batman”
again, and furrow the brow
“I’m Batman!”
one more time but a little darker…
It’s perfect. You people should be sorry you ever grew up.
The hood (is it bonnet to our friends across the pond?) makes up about 75% of the car! A big hood says power, sure, but this is ridiculous.
(It also screams “small penis compensator” as others have alluded to.)
It’s completely over the top: I love it. It’s about time cars started looking like a Speed Racer episode.
There ain’t a damn thing wrong with that.
Just because you and I can’t afford it doesn’t make it wrong.
thecavanaughs,
Speak for yourself (selves?). And just because it’s expensive doesn’t make it attractive either. It’s over the top, gawdy even.
Gawdy? You think?
Someone should tell them.
I’m sure they were aiming for subtle.
