Car Dealer Sues Over World’s Most Expensive Production Car
Tuesday, July 4th, 2006
The Mercedes Benz CLK-GTR roadster holds the dubious honour of being the most expensive production car ever made. While no MSRP was ever affixed to these supercars, prices ranging from $1.5 to $2 million USD aren’t uncommon, as only five were reportedly built. So imagine an owner’s dismay after paying $1.7 million USD for the sole North American example only to have it fail to drive 10 blocks. That’s precisely the disappointment Los Angeles car dealer Mark Johnston feels after paying precisely that for what is apparently a useless automobile.
