Explaining why he keeps buying the rare SLRs, Manny said :

“Why do I own so many SLRs?
⠀
Many people don’t realize, I buy my cars out of passion but I also buy them as great investments! And it never feels like work when you can mix the two together???”
⠀
“SLRs are a limited production car between two top brands, Mercedes and McLaren. They were produced at the MSL McLaren factory and include the latest Formula One technology with full carbon fiber body. These cars have been selling on their window sticker, hence they are a great investment.”

The SLR is an abbreviation for “Sport Leicht Rennsport” (Sport Light Racing), a homage to the Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR which served as the car’s inspiration.

Sold from 2003 to 2009 (2,157 produced), the SLR was offered in coupé, roadster and speedster bodystyles with the latter being a limited edition model.
