When and where: August, 2012 in Pebble Beach, Calif.
The top-selling car at all the Pebble Beach auctions in 2012, this Special Roadster was owned by a German Baroness who drove it while hiding out in Switzerland during World War II. She owned this car until she died in 1989 but for the last 40 years of that time it sat in a Connecticut garage. Once it was brought out, new owners treated it to a thorough restoration.
