Shame they didn't manage to sell any Have to say though the wankel in the rx8 is about 1300cc's so this would be more than double that - prob very quick and about 5mpg
People in the arab world offered mercedes 1200000 for the cars , but MB used it as a design for their new generation vehicles.
Same as the Lambo, the mb was never meant for sale

needforspeed.. You seem to know little of the c111. When the car was first introduced as a concept, during the show , MB receivefd 250+ signed cheques from customers all over the world, and guess what ... the had left the "pay" field empty.

I remember my dad brought me a WIRED remote controlled toy of the middle orange one back in 1972 from Munich when he went there on a business trip. Even though my family had many more MB's than BMW's while I was growing up I am not a huge fan of MB. However, I loved that car and I still think it is one of the best looking MB designs.....especially considering when it was designed.
