Six hundred horses and then some

617 hp.
0-60 miles per hour in 3.3 seconds.
Top speed of 216 miles per hour.

Those specs may even go up depending on which automotive authority you put your faith in.

It consumes 3.15 miles per gallon at a minimum speed of 200 mph, and has a as tank capacity of 25.9 gallons.

The Mercedes McLaren SLR can reach the moon in under 47 days. Theoretically, that is, under the following conditions:

  • Escape velocity (from the earth's gravitational pull) isn't a factor.
  • The fuel tank is topped-up every 81 miles, which takes about 3 minutes.
  • There are about 2,949 fuel stations spaced evenly between the earth and the moon.
  • You don't get lost.
  • You're not a troll, and you don't take driving to the moon literally.

Maybe, just maybe, you'll get there faster if you take a green one.
