If they did have to us a crane to bring it in, why did they have the doors open when they moved it?

If that SLS is now in the museum then a quick trip to the Benz museum is definitely on my list of things to do when I drive home from work!

I am VERY mixed about this car. As a sports car, it is GREAT.

The problem is, Mercedes developed it as a supercar, and it's marketing it as a supercar. As a supercar, I think it's very dissapointing, and I would argue whether it even qualifies to be a supercar.

It's 100% not an exotic car.

Was it being suspended by a crane or a helicopter? It appears on the last pic that it's a crane?
