One of the rarest and most exclusive Mercedes-Benz models in recent history will be auctioned off May 19th at Silverstone Circuit, and we suspect it won’t have a hard time finding a home.
The car in question is a one of 25 UK RHD Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG Black Series, expected to fetch anywhere between £110,000 and £125,000, which in U.S. dollars amounts to somewhere between $157,200 and $178,631.
According to Silverstone Auctions classic car specialist, Harry Whale, the CLK63 AMG Black is one of the “most desirable high performance modern classics on the market.”
So just how special is this car? Well, aside from being one of only 25 units to be built in right-hand drive, this particular CLK63 AMG Black Series was also one of the very last models to come off the production line in 2008, wearing a shiny shade of Iridium Metallic Silver. Power comes from a 6.2-liter V8 engine, producing 507 PS (500 HP).
According to its impeccable service history, it has only covered 4,000 miles (6,437 km) since it was new, and had only one owner over the past 8 years.
The CLK 63 Black will be auctioned off alongside this Obsidian Black 2005 CLK DTM, which has covered 7,850 miles (12,633 km) in the span of 13 years, and is powered by a 5.4-liter V8, churning out 582 PS (574 HP).
