Coming off a disappointing showing in yesterday's Car magazine review, the Mercedes-Benz SLR 722 Edition is back for another round of testing, this time trying to appease the fine gentlemen of Autocar.
Unfortunately, appeased they were not, as the 650 horsepower supercar once again received a battery of criticisms
ranging from its "unacceptable ride quality" to "steering so aggressive the car was difficult to place with real confidence."
As for their conclusion, here's what Autocar had to say:
| "I think the SLR needs to go the other way – reverting to its standard suspension and giving buyers a whole new dimension to enjoy – the third dimension, to be precise. Though I am not a chop-top man per se, I can see a convertible roof suiting the SLR’s temperament and customer base very well. Happily, Mercedes feels the same way and will reveal just such a car this summer. I had hoped the 722 would be the car the SLR always promised to be, but came away disappointed." |
