[RM Sotheby's @rmsothebys]

Built by HWA. Inspired by a DTM champion. Limited to just 80 cabriolets.

Created to celebrate Mercedes-Benz's 2003 DTM title victory, the CLK DTM AMG Cabriolet transformed a championship-winning race car into one of the most outrageous road-going AMGs ever produced.

Powered by a supercharged 5.4-litre V-8 producing 590 PS, this example is one of just 80 cabriolets built and has covered only 1,997 kilometres from new.

Finished in Bright Silver Metallic over Black/Anthracite trim, it is offered by its original supplying Mercedes-Benz dealership and benefits from a March 2026 service by an authorised Mercedes-Benz workshop.

Offered at The Tegernsee Auction, 4 July. Register to bid here https://t.co/gf2qCuzna4 #RMTegernsee

The car is up for a pre-sale estimate of $9.5mil to $12mil.

Can you separate the craftsmanship from the controversy?

The Mercedes 770K is a stunning feat of engineering — but its legacy is tied to Nazi leadership.

Does its beauty outweigh its dark history, or is this a car forever shadowed by the past?

Monday’s Autotrader spot is this magnificent 1983 Citroën CX 2400 Prestige. One of just four left on UK roads, it would certainly stand out in a sea of grey modern cars. #Citroen #ClassicCars
