porter Report post Posted March 14, 2009 Both cars ride great and pull hard until 140ish, then the SL65 starts to feel floaty (really bad after 150mph), while the SLR feels rock solid up to 172 mph (highest I have had it up to so far). SLR definitely has a lot more top end acceleration. Aaron I had mine up to 195 mph (315 km/h) and it had float. Front end had some lift and steering was loose. This was speedo read and not GPS verified. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OC Report post Posted March 19, 2009 401 dude. 407 is packed with cops Both are great roads to do speeding actually. Beautiful, long straights; I just never noticed much cops when I was on 407. I guess I was lucky. The advantage of 401, from what I remember, is the sheer amount of long straights with only a concrete divider: you can see on the other side at all times, no way for cops to hide. Tks for the heads-up on 407. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFilipinoStig Report post Posted April 3, 2009 Aaron, I'm still new to the world of SLRs, I'm assuming your mod was the Package1? Seems their Pkg2 is 18hp more, I don't see how you could feel the difference - or would the times be that much different? Thanks for the write-up and numbers - really sinks in how much of a beast the SLR is! (I wasn't a fan, initially). The sound though, my LORD, the sound they make is unmistakable!

VBUGKING Report post Posted April 4, 2009 Yes it was the package 1, package 2 just adds exhaust for like another 14k, not really worth it IMO. Aaron Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
