For Sale at Auction: 2008 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class in Atlanta, Georgia for sale in Atlanta, GA
Vehicle Description Chassis No.
WDDAK76FX8M001802 When introduced in 2003, the SLR created an entirely new super sports car segment, thanks to the joint efforts of Mercedes-Benz and it Formula One partner McLaren.
The Sport Leicht Rennsport, or simply SLR, drew significant inspiration from the famed 300 SLR racecars from 1955 with its use of distinctive styling and innovative technology.
Placed side by side, one can see the similarities between the two from their silhouettes, side air intakes, and side exit exhaust.
Much like the original, the SLR McLaren derives elements of its design from its contemporary Silver Arrow race cars with its MP4 F1-inspired nose and double front spoiler.
It was available as either a closed coupe with winged doors or an open roadster, differentiating itself from the competition from Porsche and Ferrari and following the traditions of the original 300 SLR.
The combined technical prowess of McLaren and Mercedes-Benz was on full display with the SLR McLaren, as it showcased innovative construction methods, with the chassis being made entirely of carbon fiber and aluminum, reducing weight by up to 40 percent compared to more traditional construction methods.
This chassis was designed to house the hand-built, dry-sump 5.
4-liter supercharged V8 behind the front wheels, classifying the car as a front, mid-engine car.
The Lysholm-type twin-screw generates a maximum of 0.
9 bar of boost when spinning at 23,000 rpm, feeding two intercoolers to produce over 600-horsepower.
Working in concert with the prodigious power output is a six-channel rear diffuser and a six-position air brake that bestow this car with a low drag coefficient, improved directional stability, and road adhesion.
Bringing this autobahn stormer to a halt is a set of impressive eight-piston brake calipers at the front and four-piston calipers at the rear.
This remarkable SLR Roadster, finished its largely hand-built production at the McLaren Technology Center of Surrey, England, in late Spring of 2008 in sleek Crystal Palladium Grey Metallic.
The subtle body color was contrasted by the optional Black and Red 300 SL Silver Arrow leather with matching leather finishing the dashboard, steering wheel, center console, and door panels.
With a choice of multiple seat size choices for both the driver and passenger seats, this car was optioned with the largest at 'XXL' and 'XL,' respectively, which increase passenger comfort due to their increased size.
Other features of this car include dual-zone climate control, Bi-Xenon headlights, and an instrument cluster with blue-faced gauges, and a prominent McLaren logos.
Once final inspections and testing were completed, the car was cleared by US Customs in Savannah, Georgia, on 14 July 2008, according to the accompanying CARFAX.
Just over two weeks later, the car was first sold at Alex Rodriguez Mercedes-Benz of League City, Texas.
The car remained in Texas until it was purchased in January 2011 by the California-based consignor, with only 2,103 miles reported at the time.
Benefiting from regular servicing completed by authorized Mercedes-Benz workshops and in conjunction with the low mileage, the car exudes excellent originality with the accompanying original accessories delivering the feeling of an as-new experience.
Combining the use of innovative, cutting-edge technology with an avantgarde, motorsports-inspired design, the SLR Roadster provides an extraordinary driving experience utilizing the finest characteristics of Mercedes-Benz and McLaren.
The SLR, particularly the Roadster, has become exceptionally desirable, with this particular example featuring the highly desirable combination of low mileage and an outstanding color combination.
