Mercedes-Benz Brings Its Legendary "Silver Stars from Stuttgart" To ModaMiami

Mercedes made ModaMiami memorable with a stunning lineup.

Taking South Florida by storm as one of the top events for classic cars, ModaMiami welcomed some of the most exclusive automotive examples to the picturesque golf course of the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables. Along with showcasing everything from a group of Bugatti Veyrons to an exhibit of Queen Elizabeth II’s personal Land Rover collection, the fuel-driven weekend included other events throughout Miami with manufacturers like Mercedes-Benz.

At the event, Mercedes-Benz made a big impression with some of its most legendary cars. The spotlight was on the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR, a car that helped define motorsport history, along with the SLR McLaren “Stirling Moss”, a modern tribute to the brand’s racing success. These icons led the Moda Classic drive and turned heads at the Concours d’Elegance, where a mix of vintage pre-war models, racing legends, and modern-day hypercars took center stage.

This year also marked the 70th anniversary of Mercedes-Benz’s 1955 racing season, when the brand won both the Formula 1 World Championship and the Sports Car World Championship. To celebrate, the 300 SLR and SLR McLaren “Stirling Moss” hit the track at The Concours Club, giving spectators a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see them all on track at once. The event also coincided with a record-breaking auction, where the Mercedes-Benz W 196 R Silver Arrow sold for €51.155 million, making it the most expensive Grand Prix car ever sold. Meanwhile, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR “Uhlenhaut Coupé” still holds the top spot as the world’s most valuable car at €135 million.

Mercedes-Benz’s MANUFAKTUR program showed off a Mercedes-AMG G 63 in Hyper Blue Magno and an AMG GT 63 with a Tartufo Brown/Black Nappa Leather interior. Paired with rare models like the Maybach S 650 Cabriolet and the SL 500 Silver Arrow Edition, the display incorporated racing history with modern luxury.
