Who has more information？
 
I think it was the original test mules for the SLR...not 100% sure...
 
I sometimes wonder what an updated SLR with the steering rack, the 7-speed MCT transmission, and carbon ceramic brakes from the SLS would be like....
 
Nice find. This is the first time I have even seen these photos. Check out the CLS vision in the background.
 
Yeah, that's how they tested the SLR. Kinda like how the SLS was tested with a Dodge Viper body.
I thought they destroy mules after the tests are done? These look like they're sitting in an MB garage somewhere.
I remember there was a video too.
