The car is available in the US. Paris Hilton has one.
McLaren SLR is a Mercedez and McLaren project. It's basically a Benz super to battle against the Enzo and Carrera GT. The McLaren F1 is a project car between BMW and McLaren using a BMW V12. It's a three seater race car. Unless you're talking the McLaren F1 car that is piloted by Kimi last or Alonzo in this year.
I love my Evo but the SLR is nice.
But what's the point of this thread? Everyone here loves to own a super car.

The Mclaren F1 would kill the SLR, but it is harder to Drive, much more a race car, but has a 240MPH Top Speed, all this in 1992. The Benz is plush in comparison and MUCH easier to drive. The F1 seats 3 and is MUCH MUCH MUCH more expensive, it also has more WHP and is 1000 pounds lighter. F1 by a mile.

I would take the F1 over the SLR any day. I would also take the Carrera GT over the SLR. The performance is great with the SLR, but the looks don't do anything for me.
