It sounds HEAVENLY in game, PD definitely learnt their lesson and now they have the crown of the car sound factor.

Search SLR McLaren edition,you can find an Orange SLR with black stripe and McLaren badge on the back


I found it, sure it has a McLaren label on the top left cover of the back, but it still has Mercedes-Benz badges...

Well,if so,then the only reason I can think of the lack of SLR series in NFS and Forza is McLaren prefer pure McLaren named project more(Both Forza and NFS have MP4-12C before it is officially launched)


Interesting... if the 'McLaren holds the rights' theory stands, then it should be in Forza series for they have good relationship. However as you pointed out, if McLaren perfer pure name, why would this SLR in GT Sport(and listed as Merc)? Curious...

But if we treat SLR like DSF did,then license problem can be solved by McLaren(There was a McLaren version with McLaren orange paint and badge)


Plus, can u find me a pic of the McLaren badge version SLR? I found nothing about it...

I have found out why there is only one Mercedes in the game. This and I quote from Martin Edmondson, in my Top Gear mag when he was asked about it, "Mercedes didn't want to be involved with the game unfortunately, If they had then that 280S would have been in, in orange of course, being such a classic movie moment. (the movie in question is The Driver.) By the way, if anyone asks, the reason we do have a Mercedes Mclaren SLR in the game is that, curiously, Mclaren holds the rights to this car, not Mercedes."

Not sure Merc or Mac or both.NFS list it as Merc,DSF list it as Mac(Ubi didnt get Merc license for DSF)And now both Forza and NFS lack this car

Yeah it's called 'Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren' not 'McLaren SLR Mercedes-Benz' ...

But for a car of a joint-project with 2 companies' name on it,it's possibile to get license from one of them(like DSF)

What? Wouldn't the SLR license be with Mercebes-Benz or McLaren?

The car should be 2003-2005, not 2009?
