It was stated by Winding Roads that the AMG team used Viper body panels to conceal the latest SLR next gen platform car, like the claimed R/T Challenger latest mule images being seen, was a wrong assumption by many. That Challenger was nothing more than the SRT8 version. Looking at the rear panel, the question is why would you conceal body panels? You simply don't...

However, still haven't receive word yet.....

Here is the suspected caper car under those wraps according to Winding Road :

I read that to mean it's slower out-of-the-box than the previous SRT-4. I really hope that's not the case.

Spy photos: Merecedes-Benz supercar sheds its cover


You obviously shouldn't put much stock into the sheetmetal of this Mercedes-Benz SLC prototype, but judging by the hardware, performance is a priority for this two-seater. Stalked by spy photographers for two days now, the wraps finally came off this afternoon revealing some Dodge Viper bodywork, a set of massive slotted brake rotors and an incredibly long wheelbase. Some handiwork the night before by KGP yielded a 106 inch measurement from wheel to wheel. The true identity of this Mercedes-built supercar is still in question, but whatever it is will be big and fast for sure.

I doubt that, highly.. It looks like a stretched viper front end; next gen SLR mule. Kinda looks like an old-school z from the front

106 in wheelbase?

the current SLR has exactly a 106.3 in wheelbase

why the Cali plates? Why wouldnt MB be testing this in Germany? It doesnt make much sense to me. I had the pic of it on the truck.
