At some level any 540K is unusual, but I had never seen one with this body style. It is at the Gilmore Museum in Kalamazoo Michigan, which has a number of spectacular cars including another 540K special roadster...:

A 540K would be one of the first things to be bought in my lottery win garage collection, along with a Duesenberg biggrin

I'd like this understated number from the MB museum.

It's RHD too!

The Reich Chancellery had a fleet of them along with a fleet of 770's.

Herman Goering certainly owned several and his infamous 'Blue Goose' armoured 540K roadster now resides in the USA.
