Thumbs up For your viewing pleasure!

Canadian Auto Show 2007

The best part was seeing a SLR 722 next to a 1958 300SL

(the lighting was bad and the camera was acting up so pictures are kind of dark)

I am guessing that the 722 stands for the horsepower.

Found this on a website :
"The "722" refers to the victory by Stirling Moss and his co-driver Denis Jenkinson in a Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR with the starting number 722 (indicating a start time of 7:22 a.m.) at the Mille Miglia in 1955"
