Auctions abroad often present surprises. This time our interest is located in a Mercedes SL 1955 which was sold at auction for the legendary sum of 4,62 million dollars.
The Gooding Auction Company & Company's Scottsdale in Arizona, USA often has special and very expensive models on the market. But this time it seems that he surpassed all previous ones, after "finding" a buyer for a historic Mercedes last weekend 300 SL Alloy Gullwing. The "customer" who acquired it, apparently this is a maniacal collector, spent the fabulous amount of 4,62 million dollars to make her his. The truth is that this particular model is highly collectible. Mercedes only built it in 29 units and the manufacturing cost was initially very high since the car body is made entirely of aluminum, material expensive to car manufacturers even today.
In this particular auction, a Ferrari also attracted intense interest 250 His GT LWB California Spider 1959 which was priced and sold at approx 4 million dollars.
