CMC Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, Silver 1:12 Scale

The synthesis of Myth and Innovation: the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren diecast model. A 1:12 scale precision model of the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, renowned for its elegance, unbelievable power, extraordinary ride qualities, highest comfort, and safety. It is a powerful reminder of the glorious SLR race cars of the 1950’s and their roadworthy “Uhlenhaut coupĂ©” versions. This award-winning model (2005 Model of the Year) is hand-assembled on a hand-crafted body of pressed copper plate. The hood tilts forward to reveal the highly-detailed 5.4 liter supercharged V-8 engine. A six-channel diffuser and a moveable spoiler and airbrake integrated into the trunk lid, bring to life the aerodynamic details of the SLR. Authentic replication of the dashboard and interior, including hand-sewn genuine leather seats and door-pockets. Only materials of the finest quality are used, from copper, leather, and paint to stainless steel. It’s unusual that a car becomes connected to that many superlatives like the SLR. And indeed, it’s not only a car, its pure emotion. Aspirations of the good old times resurrect again, when motor races were real adventures for bold men. The SLR is connecting the myth of the old Silver Arrows with the high-tech of the Formula 1 bolids of the present. During the development of the SLR, Mercedes and McLaren exchanged all their know-how of motorsport. The result: the untouchable superiority of the SLR imparts the driver a feeling of freedom and adventure. Extraordinary originals are demanding extraordinary models: The model in the big scale 1:12 comes up to the highest expectations of model engineers’ art. During the development, CMC was using the costly sterolithography method. This digitalization technology made it possible for the CMC production engineers to produce true to the original and accurate to size body and aggregate parts. To become up to the noble character of the original.
