Top Mercedes-Benz Highlights Set for Arizona Concours

The Arizona Concours is renowned for its curated display of about 100 dream cars and collector vehicles, professionally judged across fifteen classes. Special awards and the coveted Best of Show trophies for pre- and post-World War II vehicles add to the excitement. 

Mercedes-Benz takes center stage this year, with a lineup that spans six eras of innovation and performance. From the earliest days of motoring to the cutting edge of hyper-performance, here are some of the standout models you’ll see:

• 1886 Patent-Motorwagen Replica: Widely regarded as the world’s first production automobile, this precise recreation pays homage to Karl Benz’s original vision. 

• 1931 Mercedes-Benz 38/250 SSK: A rare survivor, this powerful sports car boasts a 7.0-liter supercharged engine and a storied racing pedigree. 

• 1939 540K Roadster: With a dramatic history spanning wartime Europe and Cold War intrigue, this beautifully restored roadster is a testament to Mercedes’ enduring allure. 

• 1956 300 SC Cabriolet: One of just 49 built, this luxury classic combines elegant design with advanced engineering, making it a prized rarity among collectors. 

• 2002 CLK-GTR Roadster: A roadgoing legend derived from GT1 racing, this AMG masterpiece delivers extreme performance and exclusivity—only six were ever made. 

• 2025 AMG One: The pinnacle of modern Mercedes-Benz engineering, this hypercar features a Formula 1-inspired hybrid powertrain and jaw-dropping performance.
