The SLR was intended to be a very limited run series of cars....and there were some other factors why MB decided not to continue the line.
The expense of the car, which had climbed to more than $600,000.00 in most places...the maintenance of the car became insane...a brake job alone would cost over $22,000.00....ceramic brakes are very expensive. An oil change/service could only be done by a certified MB mechanic and that would cost around $3,000.00. As a matter of fact, if the mechanic wasn't certified, he couldn't drive the car. And, this car became a headache to most of its owners...this is basically a race car with a license plate, and a high maintenance car. McLaren made this car for MB, and MB is not one company that lets someone else control their products...which is probably why MB bought AMG a while back.
Essentially, the SLR is not going to be known as a must have for collectors...just like the Bugatti Veyron...they're not very good cars in the long run...but they do look good.
