Mercedes has unveiled a new special edition SLR known as the "722 Edition." This special edition has an improved output of 650 horsepower, a tailor-made suspension configuration, and a decidedly sporty interior. This special edition is a honor 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 car is capable of reaching 0 to 62 mph in only 3.6 seconds, and 124 mph is reached in just 10.2 seconds. The maximum speed of this beauty is 209 mph.
