A more hardcore version of the SLR Mclaren I believe. I'll let this quote from wiki land do the talking.

A new version was introduced in 2006, called the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 Edition. The "722" refers to the victory by Stirling Moss and his co-driver Denis Jenkinson in a Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR with the starting number 722 (indicating a start time of 7:22 a.m.) at the Mille Miglia in 1955.

The "722 Edition" includes an engine rated 650 PS (480 kW; 640 hp) at 6,500 rpm and 820 N·m (600 lb·ft) at 4,000 rpm. 19-inch light-alloy wheels were used to reduce unsprung weight, while modifications were also made to the suspension, with a stiffer damper setup and 10 mm (0.39 in) lower ride height introduced for improved handling. Larger 390 mm (15 in) diameter front brakes and a revised front air dam and rear diffuser were fitted.[8]

Exterior changes, other than the larger 19-inch (480 mm) black light-alloy wheels, include red "722" badging, harking back to the original 722 racer, and slightly different tail lights and headlamps.

The SLR 722 can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.6 seconds, 200 km/h (120 mph) in 10.2 seconds and 300 km/h (190 mph) in 27.6 seconds, and can reach a top speed of 337 km/h (209 mph) faster than the standard Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.

Nope, it hasn't been posted yet. The only SLRs I found were the SLR 722 GT race car, original SLR, & SLR Stirling Moss.

I simply searched "Mercedes" and "Mercedes-Benz" while using "ctrl+f" to find any post that had "SLR" in it and this car hadn't came up.

Okay, no problem. Voted!
 
Well... You can make a replica 722 in GT6 already so I think telling PD to fix the transmission for the C63 and SLR is needed more than the 722.
