Mercedes to Auction Bespoke SLR McLaren Roadster

One of the last SLR McLaren Roadsters to be built for the U.S. will be auctioned in partnership with Saks Fifth Avenue. Mercedes said that the starting bid is set at $529,500 and all additional funds raised above this amount will be donated to the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital Thanks and Giving campaign. So what makes this version any more special than the other SLRs? Well, nothing much apart from the fact that this is the only SLR destined for the States that combines carbon fiber bodywork finished in bespoke Sienna Pearl metallic paint and a signature light brown leather interior.
