Rare 2010 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722S Roadster For Sale

The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren was the first production road-car McLaren Automotive had a hand in making and designing after the legendary McLaren F1. The car which resulted was a brutal front-engined GT car capable of performance numbers almost identical to the mid-engined Porsche Carrera GT released around the same time.

The standard Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren features a 5.4-liter supercharged all-aluminium V8 engine producing a total of 617 hp and 580 lb-ft of torque. However, for those that felt that wasn’t fast or powerful enough, the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 Edition was later offered. Featuring an uprated version of the same engine, it produces a Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 equalling 640 hp and 600 lb-ft of torque at just 4000 rpm.

For those happy with the power of the 722 Edition but wanting to attract a bit more attention, then the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 S Roadster is the perfect car. Featuring the same engine as the 722 Edition coupe, it can hit 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds and a top speed of 334 km/h (208 mph). Limited to just 150 units, it is a truly rare automobile.
