1936 Mercedes-Benz 540K Von Krieger Special Roadster, this ultra-rare Hermann Ahrens-designed 540 K Special Roadster has a tale to tell. It was purchased new in 1936 by an aristocratic Prussian family, becoming the personal car of Baroness Gisela von Krieger. Among the very elite of international society, the beautiful Baroness was named one of the ten most fashionable women in the world and kept the car until her passing in 1989. Sold by Gooding & Co for US$11,770,000 at Pebble Beach in 2012
