For me, the SLR is a hot, supercar. I drool over its lines and the power you know is under the hood.
I visited a dealer in Rochester not too long ago and they had one in the showroom delivery area. It was covered up. When the sales guys came over and asked if there was something they could do for me I said "Sure, let me get a look at the SLR!" They kinda hemmed and hawed and said they couldn't do it because a customer had already bought it. (huh?)
Then my salesgirl came over and I mentioned it. She immediately took me and my wife in the back and took the cover off it. It was drop dead gorgeous. I loved the lines. It just oozes great car, IMHO.
I would have LOVED to take it for a little test drive.
The salesgirl was probably willing to show it because it was her last day with the Benz dealership
