    ...it's more efficient but just not as much fun." -Jay Leno


    Jay Leno wrote some stuff about the new MB SLR. the car sounds awesome. they brought down 20 SLR owners to beat up the car for 2 straight days. there were some direct comparisons with the F1 and Enzo too.

    Jay Leno's take on the SLR

    Wow, the site is being really weird with posting.... anyway, I think Leno is a really lucky guy.

    I also think that the positive that he described of the SLR - that he can take it anywhere and not have people bump into it - is it's main detractor. IT'S BORING.

    Plus, now you have the new SLK that looks identical. At least the SLR nose was distinctive...not anymore

    And the Enzo is good looking because it's a Ferrari, not because it's good looking. If someone said that was the new Lambo they'd say, "uh-huh, that's nice".
