So what if the SLR was .10 faster? You can't outrun ugly.

True.. AND I saw a Carrera GT this morning parked, and it looks betetr then ANY SLR i've seen.

Carerra is, in my opinion, one of the best looking supercar ever. The SLR is too long in the hood, too awkward, too heavy, too slow, and too ugly.

because SLR is Grand Tourer.. it shouldn't be even compared with CGT, it should be compared with Bentley Continental GT and likes of that.

 

[GT4_Rule]

But it's still slow compared to the Continental GT which has 4 doors. And you can't argue that it looks pretty bad compared to any other GT or supercar....

Indeed, the SLR looks like something Ace and Gary would drive.

Too bad the GT was .9 faster on the official power lap runs for each anyway: http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/powerlaps.shtml
