everything is marketing matter IMO, once the segments are defined by each brand according to its interests...for instance, in general the very powerful 2 door cars are classified in two sort of class
the GT class such as the ferrari 550, the Aston Martin Vanquish, the Jag XKR, the vette, the viper, the murcielago....(2+2 cars with some level of confort, not very radical reactions when driving it)...in conclusion...cars that let do many and many kilometers on motorway in a confortable way.......and i think that Merc want to enphasize that the SLR belongs to this group
whereas the supercars spirit is totally different, its aim is to find out the maximum efficiency and sensation of a racing car on racetracks, regardless the confort, noise of the cars...this group has the following cars such as the ferrari enzo, the porsche carrera GT, the lambo diablo GT, the Pagani Zonda, the Koenisegg...
