Britney Spears' Mercedes CLK350: A Hazard on LA Roads
【Summary】Britney Spears' 2006 Mercedes CLK350, dubbed the "most dangerous car in Los Angeles," is up for sale. The car gained fame during the chaotic events in the pop star's life, including her divorce, head-shaving incident, and involuntary psychiatric hold. Despite its notoriety, the car is factory stock and unimpressive. The Volo Auto Museum is selling the car, which comes with a record of fender-benders and a celebrity pedigree, for just under $70,000.
Britney Spears' garage may not be the most interesting among celebrities, but some of the cars she has driven over the years have become icons in their own right. One such car is the "most dangerous car in Los Angeles," which became the most photographed celebrity car of 2007. This car gained significant media coverage during a tumultuous period in Spears' life, following her divorce from Kevin Federline. The paparazzi were constantly around her, and this car was often in the spotlight, resulting in several fender-benders.
The car in question is a 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLK350 convertible, which Spears bought new from a local dealership. Despite its notoriety and repeated mishaps, she enjoyed driving it for months. She used it for various purposes, including trips to the recording studio, personal errands, and nights out. The car's history includes a hit-and-run charge and speeding tickets.
Now, the Volo Auto Museum in Illinois is selling the CLK350 as part of their inventory. This car has been a popular attraction at the museum, but it's time for it to find a new owner. The car has over 29,000 miles on the odometer and comes with a factory-stock 3.5-liter 268-hp engine and a 4-speed automatic transmission. Its exterior and interior are both black, featuring premium leather seats with memory positions. Other features include 17-inch alloy wheels, dual climate zones, auto headlights, one-touch windows, and keyless locks. Despite its history of fender-benders, the car has been well maintained.
What makes this car even more appealing is the fact that it was the last car Spears drove before her conservatorship, which took away her ability to drive herself. With an estimated value of $75,000, the car is listed for sale at just under $70,000. It offers a unique celebrity pedigree that car collectors may find enticing. The stories this car could tell are truly intriguing.
