In this particular Mercedes-Benz has an interesting history. Shorter and smaller than many of the cars performance massively throughout your day (some of which have made this list), means SSK Super Sport Kurz - German for short.

It was the last car Ferdinand Porsche designed for Mercedes-Benz, before he left the company to build their own cars. It may have been small, but its engine was powerful - a 7.1 liter supercharged engine.
In 1941, an English gentleman and prolific car collector named George Milligen 11 became the owner of this car. Milligen kept the car until his death at the age of 94. Surprisingly, the car was never restored and presented almost all its original parts - just the sump was replaced in 75 years of ownership -Source: Speed TV-. Now that is taking care of your car!

In a 2004 auction, Mercedes Milligen is sold for $ 7.4 million. Let's hope it keeps its new owner as well.
