Mercedes-Benz 300SL

Mercedes-Benz 300SL (also known as Gullwing because of the shape of the doors) was developed as racing car, but soon it was decided that the car could be a commercial success if would be sold for the regular drivers. The car was holder of the top speed record, so it?s not a surprise that it was a great success - the Gullwing version and later as roadster.

Why is it legendary?

First ever racing car to be sold to regular drivers. Unmistakable shape plus typical German high quality made it a immediate legend.
