MUNCLE MIKES COLLECTOR GUIDE
1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL — 2021 GXJ24
The polished 300 SL is almost a mirror beside the painted releases. Red-ringed whitewall tires and a warm tan cabin keep it from looking like an unfinished casting.

Variation Summary





Choosing one for your collection
Ask for photographs from two angles. Fine scratches and fingerprints show differently on a reflective finish than on solid-color paint.
Check the tire sidewalls and the bright trim around the window openings. Also confirm that both doors close evenly.
Collector questions
Is the pale body simply white paint?
No. This release has a polished metal appearance. The changing reflections in the photo are part of that finish.
