Here is a brief excerpt taken from the auction description:

Mercedes produced 40 special edition cars, the ‘US*500 Edition’, to celebrate the inaugural US*500 race at the Michigan International Speedway in May 1996.

All 40 cars paraded around the circuit before the race.

Each was either red, white or blue and was optioned with the SL Sport Package, AMG Monoblock wheels, and ESP.

One of them, this one, was gifted new by Mercedes-Benz to a true global superstar, the late but great comic genius, Robin Williams.

Given it is in outstanding condition and has a very low number of miles under its belts, how best should we describe the unique opportunity presented by this glorious car?

One phrase immediately springs to mind – Carpe diem!
