Hmmmmmmmmmm

The original 'gullwing' is a genuine design classic. Knowing Mercedes and having owned a couple, they will be able to build that well enough to be more than just a fashion thing, so the effort in making that system should pay off as being one of a kind.

I'm not a fan of the front end and I haven't seen the back yet. I hope the chassis delivers upon the aesthetic promise :)

Im in two minds about the Gullwing, saw some photos in autocar a few months back and some more recent spy/release shots. I think its a little beaky at the front.

There was a great article a few months back about the original Sterling Moss 722 and the new Sterling Moss SLR 722 Edition, ill dig up pictures when i can, and that car is stunning, totally different car though sorry to go off track.

Mercedes are turning out some fantastic looking cars with the handling and power to match.

No doubt this car will be fantastic and drive like a dream, will be waiting patiently for some Nurburgring footage.
