BERLIN: This list of the costliest Mercedes Benz cars is for the people who love luxurious vehicles and want to know about them.
Mercedes-Benz, as you probably know, is a German luxury automaker, and one of the finest, if not the best, of its kind. You may trace the origins of this company back to 1886 and Karl Benz’s Benz Patent-Motorwagen, considered to be the first car in the world. The manufacturer’s slogan is “Das Beste oder nichts”, which translates roughly into English as “The best or nothing”.
Without a doubt, Mercedes has lived up to this phrase, and their topmost standards for as long as they’ve been around. Mercedes-Benz has always been and will be for years to come synonymous with quality, extravagance and luxury.

It seems needless to list the specs of this car, for its price has nothing to do with maximum speed, engine details or horsepower. This vehicle is at the top of our list because it is a Mercedes-Benz heirloom: it is a Formula One race car that was driven by Juan Manuel Fangio when he set the world record.
