Harry Tahiliani loves the SLR McLaren. 'It's one of the best cars I've ever driven' he says. 'Feels like a jet on wheels'
Car and Driver Magazine had this to say about it:
"As we floored the accelerator in the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, there was a brief snap of wheelspin before the electronic stability control stepped in to balance the sudden tidal wave of torque against the grip of the car's 295/30ZR-19 rear Michelins. After that it was just a matter of listening to the deep staccato beat of the 5.4-liter supercharged V-8 hurtling the SLR down the relatively short runway at Malmsheim, near Stuttgart (where Mercedes organized this performance test for American magazines), and then tapping the shift button on the steering wheel each time the tach reached for its 7000-rpm redline."
Like Harry said, Jet Engine
