I think the opening question about "MORE" can be answered with a resounding YES!

For me, the two SLRs were the highlights of 2009 in terms of looks and handling. It’s great that we’re being surprised right off the bat in 2010 with two fantastic color variants of this speedster.

So which one is the most beautiful?

Well, I suppose everyone has to answer that for themselves. If you line all four up side by side, the decision is clearly made difficult. Personally, I like No. 9 best, with its flawless three-color paint job. But as we all know

, that’s purely a matter of taste!

Just like with its siblings, you can immediately see the attention to detail in this new design (openwork side panels, tow hooks, hinted-at air vents, etc.).) The analog version comes without lights, which really isn't a problem, as this actually helps reduce the car's weight.

The SLR’s handling is impressive right from the start, and it’s a blast to watch these speedsters in action on a multi-lane track. Given their superior looks and truly excellent handling, it would Carrera be Carrera a good idea to release additional color variants.

Whether analog or digital, these cars are sure to be among the “Top 10” again in 2010.
