Michael Jordans McLaren SLR

|

Updated on

The Mercedes McLaren SLR is a stunning car, and running across one of the special 722 Editions these days is like finding a needle in a hay stack. However, it gets better because this unique McLaren has been celebrity owned by the one and only basketball legend Michael Jordan. It is now being auctioned on eBay for a hefty price, but the car still has less than 1,000 miles! It received several modifications including 19-inch lightweight alloy wheels, modified suspension, stiffer damper setup, and 10 mm lower ride height.

These mods improved the handling while the tuners installed larger 390 mm discs in the front with a revised front air dam and rear diffuser. To refresh your memory, the McLaren SLR 722 Edition holds a 5.5-liter V8 supercharged engine delivering 640 bhp and 820 Nm of torque. The result is a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration time of 3.6 seconds with a top speed of 335 km/h!
