Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR is a truly unique and very atypical model for the German brand. In essence, it is a racing sports prototype prepared for public roads. This mid-engine coupe has nothing in common with the standard Mercedes-Benz CLK.
Only 26 such cars were produced to allow the CLK-GTR to be homologated for GT class competitions. By the way, in 1998 it won this championship, but at Le Mans, Mercedes was remembered for a spectacular airborne flip.
The Mercedes supercar is equipped with a 6.9-liter 604-horsepower V12 and a 6-speed sequential gearbox. Acceleration to 100 km/h takes 3.8 seconds, and the top speed is 344 km/h. Formally, it is still the fastest production Mercedes-Benz.
Specifically, this Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR coupe was sold in 1997 to a German millionaire who owned it for eight years. Then the car changed owners several times until it ended up in the USA. Surprisingly, over 24 years it has covered only 1,442 km.
