Classic Porsches and Ferraris have that indefinable something: that little bit extra that makes men and women fall head over heels in love with the sensuous curves of a 911, or the masculine cut-and-thrust of a Testarossa. But what about Mercedes? We have searched for the unique erotic appeal of the three-pointed star.
And in our opinion, it’s not the luxuriously appointed saloons that suggest the hottest metal but the elegant, open-topped Mercedes sports cars; as these few photographs so amply demonstrate.
