Barely Disguised Racers – Craziest Homologation Specials Ever Released On The Street

Mercedes CLK GTR

According to the rules, Mercedes had to build at least 25 road-going versions before it was free to race, so AMG produced 20 coupes and six roadsters, all with race-prepared 612 hp V12 engine in the back. The cost of the new CLK GTR was over 1.5 million dollars, which provided the title of the world’s most expensive passenger car in 1998. Unfortunately, CLK GTR was unsuccessful in racing, and soon the racing class was canceled, and the car became obsolete, but it’s a highly valued collector’s item.
