(PICS) Mercedes 500K Special Roadster
photo no longer available
I picked up this Mercedes promo (fancy display box) at a toy show in Toronto and, while I believe it's based on an IXO parts-work model, I must admit it's beautifully finished in a much more upscale level of quality. Since the packaging is partly in German, i don't know if these are/were available in North America, but I probably would have been hesitant to pay the Mercedes dealer price anyway.

Better wheels than the partworks versions.
This model has appeared in black, red, and silver/black fenders. Though mostly appearing as a partwork, it was an "offical" Ixo product, numbered MUS001 (first in their museum series around 2006 and painted black).

Yeah, I have this in a cheaper version
I got this as part of the Atlas Edition's Mercedes-Benz Collection. Your's has better wheels and more chrome, otherwise seems effectively the same model.
