Noone1, just out of curiosity, why are you so much of a fanboy for this car?  

Not a fanboy for it at all. I think the car is ugly and I'd never want one.

That said, there's no reason to doubt the time. Mercedes does all the same racing as everyone else, more or less. They have more money than most high-end and exotic companies. No reason to think Mercedes couldn't make a car like this. If they can make a GT S and a GT3, then they should have no problem making a car in the middle.
