Mercedes-Benz 300SLs have soared in value during the past 12 months,
and the trend continued on Friday afternoon, as a 1955 Mercedes-Benz
300SL alloy Gullwing rocketed to a record $4.6m at Gooding &
Company's Scottsdale Auction.
Bidding on the rare car -- it is one of 29 alloy Gullwings -- started
at $2m and quickly ratcheted up, achieving a final sale price of
$4.2m. Factoring in the 10% buyer's premium, the car changed hands for
$4.62m.
