...is a homage by Mercedes-Benz to the unforgettable victory won by the British racing legend Stirling Moss and his co-driver Denis Jenkinson in a Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR with the starting number 722 (indicating a start time of 7.22 a.m.) at the Mille Miglia in 1955...The supercharged 5.5-litre V8 engine in the "722 Edition", which is hand-built in the AMG engine shop in Affalterbach...
This is actually built in AMG factory!

The interior is great done, I like it! Exterior is something totally different, it looks challenging, agressive but not very nice! Rims don't suit the car very good and front (carbon) spoiler looks like my friend put it on the car in the garage! But still, there is something in SLR...!
