Vision SLR: the Silver Arrow of tomorrow Front section: stretched hood and wings like bulging muscles The taut curves of the front wings make the onlooker curios and invite further inspection from a side as well as a frontal perspective. Here the second design theme of the sports car becomes apparent: tradition. Unmistakable stylistic elements from the 300 SL of the 1950s bustle for attention in a new and progressive form and declare in unmistakable fashion that this car comes with a substantial portion of power.
