luxurious racing cars,mercedes benz

Mercedes Benz ruled formula racing in the 20s and 30s and its luxurious roadsters ruled the road. These autos are now valued at $1,000,000+.
Few convertibles look as good with top up as with top down and this is one of those. The high price is justified as it is indeed the premier classic car of its time. Tricky supercharger though !
apart from this RM Auctions second annual Ferrari Leggenda e Passione auction event witnessed a new auction record established for a 1961 Ferrari California Spyder formerly owned by actor James Coburn.

The rare car exceeded all expectations by selling for a world record auction price for a vintage car at auction in the amount of $10,894,900 U.S., surpassing the previous record set at Sotheby's Monaco in 1990 for a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO at $10,756,000 U.S.
