If it was alex that wrote this the whole list would be mx5’s

Nice to see a Ferrari in front of a Mercedes F1 car for a change.

The total of these cars is 220 mio€. Does that seem a lot to you? Think again:The Card Players by Paul Cézanne was sold for 250 mio $……

Does 220 mio $ for 10 cars seem a lot? Think again:The Card Players by Paul Cézanne was sold for 250 mio.

Lmao bill gates

The strange thing for me is: I like the Mercedes the most out of all those cars… :o It looks awesome!

It’s really undoubted that the 250 GTO is really the most expensive car ever sold. It’s the car everyone should like. Anyone here ever heard of Mercedes-Bent (not a typo)?
