The Vision SLR was introduced to the world public in 1999, at the IAA in Frankfurt as a concept study of a supercar. Equipped with a 5.5 liter 8-cylinder mid-engine producing 557 horsepower, a car body made of carbon fiber and doors hung on the A-pillar, the vision Sporting Light Racing car reaches speeds over 186 mph. Six years later the vision became reality, in the form of the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.
