Market commentary
Not your standard 540K, but an attractive, unusual example with coachwork that will make any Mercedes Benz owner proud to own it and a dramatic design that recalls the legendary Autobahn Kourier ... but with a top that goes down. An outstanding, rare and attractive car that was reported sold by RM in Arizo in 2007 for $1,028,500, a benchmark that reinforces this price as a sound value.
