Introduced in 1954, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL may be the most beautiful car in the world. In its original form the car became known simply as the Gullwing. In just the first three years of its life, the 300 SL became an automotive icon.
In 1957 Mercedes moved away from the Gullwing design and opted to go with a more traditional roadster, making the 1954-1957 Gullwings incredibly valuable.
Now the 1954 Gullwing may be worth as much as $2 million, making it a hot commodity among collectors. Is it the most beautiful car in history?
