Girl Driving an SLR McLaren in Vienna is a Pretty Sight

Despite being a supercar that hasn't been in production for quite a few years now, the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren hasn't yet become a rare sight in some of the richer European cities such as London, Monte Carlo or Paris.

Checking out an SLR McLaren being driven by a young-looking lady is certainly rare from where we're sitting though.

Spotted somewhere in Vienna, the Silver Arrow of the 21st Century – as it was nicknamed – may or may not belong to the girl, as a man is apparently riding shotgun, but that is beside the point and probably even a bit sexist.

Despite having at least 626 hp and 780 Nm (575 lb ft) of torque, the SLR McLaren is one of the easiest to drive supercars in the world, and the following footage is a great example of that.

The only somewhat humorous bit in the video is obviously the fact that the driver didn't check if her butterfly door was properly closed before driving away, promptly stopping after just a few yards to close it again.
