Incorporating advanced aerodynamic features and cutting-edge stability technologies, the CLR GTR ensures exceptional stability and control, particularly during high-speed maneuvers. Originally priced around $1.5 million, the Mercedes CLR GTR is considered one of the most exclusive and prestigious racing cars ever produced.

I watched the “owner’s guide” to this car. It was amazing how many times the guy said something along the lines of “you just do this but then sometimes that doesn’t work so you do this instead and, if that doesn’t work you do this and this.” It takes a TEAM of people to remove the engine cover. Absolute insanity in the best possible way. The 14 year old me from the 90’s is giddy to watch this.

All three are so iconic in their own right. Driving them back to back must have been such a surreal experience, how could anybody choose. What I will say is that this is what AMG meant to me, as an 80’s child nothing fascinated more than seeing those three letters on the rear end of a Mercedes. It is a crying shame that the brand has been so diluted, to the extent that it means almost nothing anymore. Great work Carfection!

While some of AMG isn't great, they are still an incredibly special brand. The AMG F1 team is one of, if not the absolute, best Formula One teams of all time, and continue to make the absolute fastest racecar the world has ever seen, year after year. AMG's truly insane roadcars still exist, especially with the Black Series. I was lucky enough to drive an SLS Black Series on a track and it's just as ridiculous and over-the-top as I hoped it would be. They also have the Project One coming in the next few years, which is literally an F1 engine dropped into a roadcar. It's going to be utterly brilliant.

@@victormanin2074 well, that's Bernie Ecclestone repeating the kill of the World Sportcars Championship in the early 70s (that was WAAAY more popular since the 1950s compared to the Grand Prix for open-wheels cars and the following F1) with a well-planned business move that brought sponsors (money) and speculating onto the energetic crysis which demonized the endurance racing for it's enormous need for gasoline, with the result of destroying what was the Golden Era of Racing, when there was no sponsor, pure racing at it's finest, made of drivers which raced for hours and hours pushing both them and their machines at the phisical limits. And I hope all of you will remember the decline that started for the same reasons I just said, of what was the Greatest Race in the World, the 24 Hours of Le Mans - which, luckely, nowadays is gaining more and more fans, less or more interested in Endurance, and my personal hope, as a fanatic of the 24 Hours de La Sarthe, that this new Hypercars formula will in some way bring us back to the same level of interest that took place first in the late 90s with that GT1 formula. This is my opinion, I don't want to say that F1 is rubbish, but I can assure you all that it's loosing spectators and public, when at the other side, the WEC enthusiasts are growing in number as the time passes by. Let's hope for a bright future for Endurance and Le Mans. Have y'all a nice day dear Petrolheads! ;)

I used to watch these FIA races on TV. One of THE most EPIC car racing shots I've ever seen was one of these going through a chicane in a slow-mo replay, shot as the car was coming towards the camera from a low angle. Left side wheels hit the red and white curb, lifting it off the ground a bit. As it came back down, I think some sparks flew. The car starts turning right and goes out of picture. WOOF! One of the most beautiful cars ever made, IMO.

No problem! Here's the information about the Mercedes CLR GTR: The Mercedes CLR GTR is a remarkable racing car celebrated for its outstanding performance and sleek design. Powered by a potent 6.0-liter V12 engine, it delivers over 600 horsepower. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes approximately 3.7 seconds, with a remarkable top speed surpassing 320 km/ h. Incorporating advanced aerodynamic features and cutting-edge stability technologies, the CLR GTR ensures exceptional stability and control, particularly during high-speed maneuvers. Originally priced around $1.5 million, the Mercedes CLR GTR is considered one of the most exclusive and prestigious racing cars ever produced.

Henry and team I don't know how to put into words how wonderful these 3 videos are. I had all of them on my bedroom walls as a kid and I had goosebumps watching and listening. I will likely never get close to them, let alone drive them, but they will forever hold a special place in my heart for the memories of watching them race and the love of supercars they helped instill in me to this day. Thank you so much for a wonderful production, keep them coming, you are by far the best car video production team out there.

This is insane, in the last 15 years it all got a little bit dull with car videos. There isn't much, that hasn't been seen. But i always hoped, that one day someone makes a video like that. I'm so glad it was you and even the coulourcombination of the cars was on point, couldn't have asked for more, i absolutely loved it. That is car journalism at its best. Commenting for the algorithm, content like this just has to be supportet.

What a BEAUTIFULLY said summation! That's exactly how I feel about all things hyper/über car these days. None of them can hold a candle to the cars of yesterday, even though they could show the taillights to some of them while still being able to go get your groceries. Thanks for taking me back in time, man I miss those days. These cars were always extremely special to me, especially the Porsche and the Mercedes, truly magnificent. I know everyone with any years on them says it.....but they really DON'T build them like they used to.

42 myself, and I've felt the same since first seeing it in a brochure many years ago. But as stated in my own separate comment, nowadays, if given the chance to own it and drive it daily (I'd be damned to let it sit, I'm driving it IDGAF), I'd let it go for a Alubeam Silver SLS Black Series.... I know they don't compare in any way, but sorry, that SLS will go down as one of, if not thee sexiest Mercedes' ever built.

I think this is the finest car video I’ve ever seen. More than a car video, the most vivid flashback to my adolescents. This trio were the hot dogs when I was a lad. To see them together and listen to Henry articulate my 1990’s pubescent feelings, which are as relevant to me now in my (very) late 30’s as they were then, is a special thing. Thankyou Henry and Carfection.
