You HAVE TO visit one of the local car dealers.
Two of the most powerful cars will be waiting for you there.
You should buy one of them.
I have to warn you, though.
Both vehicles are very expensive.
You will also have to spend a lot of money on various performance upgrades.
McLaren Mercedes SLR (#1) doesn’t only look good, but it also handles quite well.
It’s definitely the only Mercedes model you should be interested in.
It’s much better than the previous cars of this brand.
Furthermore, the Porsche seems like a better alternative.
Take a closer look at the performance bars if you don’t believe me.
;-) They’re much better than those of the previous cars.
Carrera GT is also better than the SLR, although the differences aren’t that obvious in this case.
Furthermore, Porsche is a lot cheaper than the Mercedes.
Thanks to that, you could have spent extra cash on new performance upgrades.
