Next-gen SL to replace the SLR?!?

Muamer Hodzic April 15, 2008


Reports are emerging, from the German newspaper – Handelsblatt, that Mercedes will not be building a successor for the SLR McLaren. They say that the new generation of the SL, which will be available in 2010, will be replacing Mercedes’ supercar. As usual, Mercedes has declined to comment on any of these rumors, but something tells me that some of these reports may be accurate, as it seems that Mercedes is pretty bad at hiding their intentions.

The recent rumors about a Mercedes and Aston Martin marriage may have some truth to it, and may be directly related to the SLR rumors. If the SL does not replace the SLR like rumored, will Mercedes be replacing the SLR supercar with a Aston Martin branded model? While a Mercedes Aston Martin co-op would be nice, I doubt it would achieve the same success that the SLR did.
