Detroit Auto Show 2009 Preview:SLR Stirling Moss won’t be offered in North America
With the exhibitors’ roster for the upcoming 2009 Detroit Auto Show dwindling, you’d think that any cars being unveiled there might actually, you know, be available in North America. But according to reports, you’d be wrong.
Mercedes-Benz is anticipated to unveil the million-dollar Stirling Moss edition Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, but sources indicate that the limited-production topless supercar won’t even be offered in the market in which it’s being unveiled. No worries for Mercedes, which will likely have sold the full run of 75 SLR speedsters being offered exclusively to current SLR owners before the show concludes. Bad news for supercar owners in the U.S,, who’ll just have to blow their extra million on another Veyron, Reventon or Koenigsegg instead.
Now, for your viewing enjoyment, we invite you to follow the jump for video footage of the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Stirling Moss, the longest-named open-air sportscar since the Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 Spyder.
