Yuck! As is the case with almost everything Mansory touches. They really have cornered the maraket in crucifying original design integrity.

bristol411s3 have you even seen any of the images of the previous cars designed by Mansory. Both the Aston Martin and the Bentley GT have good looking kits on them. Now given this kit for the SLR is a bit over done and the wrong colour but it does have some interesting features to work with

I would drive this over the original. I think the gold paint job shows this car setting this image "yes I am expensive, and no you can't touch me"

Are you serious? The interior is kit car quality and the body kit looks like it was made by Need For Speed. What a cheap accessories for an expensive car

yes I am serious. Hell whats the point in buying a $700,000 car? It sure isn't for track day fun, it is to show off how rich you are/were. So having this golden modded slr is like wearing diamond encrusted platinum bling when all the other homies are wearing gold bling (excuse the horrible simile). Basically put, this car will turn more heads and start more conversations then the regular SLR therefore I want it more.

"whats the point in buying a $700,000 car? It sure isn't for track day fun, it is to show off how rich you are/were." I disagree. Some buy them to feed their egos, others buy them as a reward for their successes and as a way to enjoy and appreciate the finer things in life. "Basically put, this car will turn more heads and start more conversations then the regular SLR therefore I want it more." I agree that it would, actually any modified SLR would, that's not the issue. I just don't appreciate how vulgar it looks. There are tons of tasteful kits out there and this is not one of them. This is subjective though, so to each his own ;)

Yet another example of extravagant tastelessness; the sort of horrid mechanical beast you'll likely see prowling the streets of Dubai. Honestly, this SLR looks like a burn victim who got overzealous with chemical tanning solution. It's about time we agreed on a pseudonym for these ostentatious Saudi-destined automobiles. I suggest the following: automoBILEs; OPEC mopeds; and (my personal favourite) Gaudy Saudis.

How can this car say anything but I dont know what to do with my money and I am ethnic. Beyond tacky and ugly. Masonry did a nice job on the RR convertible, but this is a slap in the face to the SLR

In all honesty... LOOK AT THIS CAR!!! It actullay does look nice minus it has no clear coat and I hate gold. This takes the already incredible looking historically correct SLR and adds to it in the most appropriate way. It is sculpting it into a look of aggression, its not so much do I like it, would I park it in my driveway? Truth be told, no way I would, the color is tacky and the leather is more that I could handle, but thats just me. Artistically speaking it is free form expression sculpted into a mean looking machine. Not the regular mean SLR but a baller type mean. Its always interesting.

I love how you all who have never seen these cars in real life (save, maybe, for an auto show), let alone sat in, and not even dreamed of driven, and wouldn't in a thousand lifetimes be able to afford one like to talk about what is hot or not. I've driven everything from Bugatti Veyron's to Enzo Ferrari's, and yes, the SLR. First and foremost, the few of us that can afford such masterpieces do so because we think differently than do "the masses," as can be seen by reading the comments on this page. And, secondly, when everyone you associate with can afford, or owns, a $400,000 or greater supercar the extra effort in customization is essential to receive the "ooh's" and "ah's" that say a CL63 would amongst "the masses." I am 32. I drive a new Bentley Azure, my lady a Continental GTC--classy, tasteful, refined. I, however, tip my hat to the connoiseurs with the vision and means to push the creative envelope and create offerings at the expense of being judged and ridiculed by a society in no way capable of appreciating nor understanding the genius of their work. We will continue to create, experience and enjoy our world. I only hope you enjoy, as much, the comraderie and fellowship, you and your "masses," gain by criticizing it.

That's just rude, disrespectful, and also very presumptuous :) I am sure that these opinions are shared by many well-off WCF members. I've had a Le Mans edition porsche 930 turbo as my first car when i was 16. I am not saying that i drive super cars daily but I certainly I had my share of owning some, renting many, and driving a whole lot more. Just to put things into perspective, where I come from we share a car-pool of a Lexus IS, a CTS, a mercedes CL, 2x ML's, 2x S classes, an X5, a mini cooper S, an FJ, a Continental Flying Spur, and other less significant cars :) Over the years, we've owned 7 porches, 2 rollses, and a ferrari as well. The interesting part is that all of these cars are a common scenery and non of them attract the kind of attention you are referring to, except for the Lexus IS!? would you believe that? you'd think it's the crappiest and the cheapest of the bunch but it does attract a lot of positive attention because it was tastefully modified. I believe that all OEM cars can be improved by modifications, otherwise they would've equipped them with best parts and they would've cost ridiculous amount of money, but it all comes down to your taste... and that is what we criticize.
