Classic Model Cars has lifted the curtain on its 2026/2027 lineup, and collectors of vintage European exotica have plenty to look forward to. Mercedes-Benz enthusiasts in particular may want to start budgeting now — the brand dominates the upcoming assortment with several meticulously crafted icons in both street and racing form.
Leading the charge is the legendary Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster, a model that continues to define post‑war sports car elegance. CMC’s execution promises the usual obsessive detailing, from the tubular space frame to the period‑correct interior textures.
Ferrari fans aren’t left out either. Making a welcome appearance is the Ferrari 375 MM Spider, a rare and historically significant open‑top racer that blends early‑1950s Italian design with motorsport pedigree. It’s a refreshing addition that broadens the assortment beyond Stuttgart’s finest.
Reaching even further back in time, CMC will also introduce the Mercedes-Benz 500 K Spezial Roadster Cabriolet — a pre‑war masterpiece known for its sweeping lines, extravagant proportions, and unmistakable presence. This is the kind of model that showcases CMC’s strengths: intricate coachwork, exposed mechanical detail, and a commanding shelf presence.
Collectors can review the full list of model definitions below. According to CMC, the first production samples are scheduled to arrive in late Q1 2026, giving enthusiasts ample time to prepare for what looks to be one of the brand’s most compelling assortments in years.
