The Mercedes-Benz SLR was built from 2003 to 2010.
The C199 SLR McLaren Coupe, the most traded version: Gordon Murray's vision of a modern 300 SLR materialized as this remarkable McLaren-Mercedes collaboration. Built in Woking using Formula 1 technology, the SLR combines a carbon fiber monocoque with Mercedes' hand-built supercharged V8, producing 617 horsepower through a sophisticated 5-speed automatic transmission. The iconic gullwing doors and dramatic proportions create an unmistakable presence, while the carbon ceramic brakes and advanced aerodynamics deliver genuine supercar performance. With 2,157 coupes produced over seven years, the SLR represents a unique moment when two legendary brands merged their expertise. Original $455,500 MSRPs now seem modest given the car's historical significance and Murray's design pedigree. Values continue climbing as collectors recognize this as a defining supercar of the 2000s.
