Mercedes Bids Farewell To SLR, Builds Final Stirling Moss
All good things must come to an end and the Mercedes McLaren SLR is no different. The total run of 2000 units will end with the final cars being the no-compromise, hirsute-motoring Mercedes-Benz SLR Stirling Moss. Appropriate in our opinion. More » -

The Legend Of SLR Guy Continues
When we tossed the idea of a little photoshopping to celebrate the greatest achievement of SLR Guy's life — smashing up a $600,000 Mercedes McLaren SLR — we expected some pretty amusing responses. We did not expect 127 responses and counting. What we also learned was that although we don't think it's possible to actually die from laughing, it is possible to partially lose consciousness from lack of oxygen. We've collected all of the current entries into one mega-gallery after the jump and we're still accepting submissions (send them in to ben@jalopnik.com) for a top ten best entries tomorrow and we'll poll to figure out the winner. That is if we haven't passed out again. More » -

Below you'll find how you can help — as well as our own crack at showing off our newly-found P-shop skills. More »
