How to Park $11.7 Million on Your Desktop



The 500K Special Roadster is one of the rarest and mostsought after automobiles ever built. It's hard to deny that one of the signature models of Mercedes-Benz® is the 500 series. So many striking and elegant bodies would grace the stalwart chassis. The 500K's of the 1930s were beautiful, elegant, and exclusive models often outfitted with voluptuous coachwork and sold to the wealthiest of clientele. The most ravishing model of this species was the two-seater 500K Special Roadster launched in 1936. It was a limited production cabriolet, in total less than 30 were made, adding to its near-mythical qualities. In its day it went for top dollar—over $106,000. Today, these ultra rare masterpieces are going for millions. In 2012, a Special Roadster fetched more than $11.7 million at auction at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. Forgo the bidding wars, nail-biting flatbed transport, and scavenger hunting for parts in Germany. Here’s your chance to own the rare and luxurious essence of this remarkable car in terms of its unforgettable styling, inimitably powerful and elegant lines, and show-stopping presence. Our die-cast metal replica captures the sexy curves and sumptuous coachwork of the full-size model in striking detail. Just shy of a foot long, and available in pearl white or ruby red.


Diecast metal body features doors, hood
and trunk that open, steerable wheels
that roll, and four wheel suspension.
Available in Ruby Red finish.
