History of the Z199

The SLR Stirling Moss was created as the ultimate tribute to Sir Stirling Moss and the golden age of motorsport.

Development focused on creating a stripped-down, open-air variant that emphasized driver engagement and celebrated the SLR heritage with modern supercar performance.

Launched in 2009, the Stirling Moss represented Mercedes-Benz and McLaren's final collaborative masterpiece before the partnership concluded.

Production ended in 2009 after just 75 examples were completed, cementing its status as an instant classic and collector's piece.
