To put the SLR in perspective top gear tested the Zonda and the Koenigsegg around their test track, same condiditions with the same race driver and both clocked in at around 1:23:xxx (remember these are out and out sports cars, no comprimises, and the enzo is about the same round the track as these 2). Then the SLR, clocked a tme of 1:20:xxx. 3 seconds faster which is stupidly fast!!..At the moent no car compares to this as it is amazingly fast round a track in a straight line, very well refined, and eve has a good sized boot. This car is amazing!!

true very true but the real difference is because the slr is mostly c.f. 300 pound weight diff!
