[The legendary door is now opened]
This is Mercedes-Benz's sports flagship that debuted in September 2003. Developed jointly with F1 constructor McLaren, it has an attractive form that combines the famous Mercedes 300 SLR of the 1950s with a modern F1 machine. Equipped with a 5.5-liter V-type 8-cylinder engine with a supercharger that produces 626 horsepower in a carbon monocoque body. It is a new-age super premium sports car that combines not only high performance with speeds of over 300km/h, but also high safety and comfort.
■Die-cast under panel The under panel, which is engraved with dividing lines and rivets, is made of die-cast to create a sense of weight. Set with semi-gloss black paint.
■Front view The long nose, short deck, and relaxed form, as well as the front end inspired by McLaren and Mercedes' F1 machines, are modeled exactly as they are on the actual car.
■Fender Slit The side slit is modeled after the Mercedes-Benz 300SLR, a legendary machine that was active in 1955, and the horizontal fins are available as separate parts. The side-exposed exhaust pipe is also impressive.
■The engine bonnet even reproduces the unique movement of protruding forward and then opening with a large front hinge. The 5.5-liter V8 engine with supercharger can be observed even after completion.
■The cockpit left and right doors use metal shafts to achieve the same operating range as the actual vehicle. It is also possible to display it in an open state by preparing a door stay. The interior also has a three-dimensional finish.
■Rear view The unique design of the rear lamp is divided into 4 parts, including clear and clear red parts, considering the ease of painting. The diffuser with 6 air ducts is also reproduced.
