The weather is warm outside, but The Finest Automobile Auctions is taking the upcoming sale on September 17 to Snowmass, Colorado. No matter the season, the beautiful mountain town of just 2,000 people promises a picturesque onsite environment. On the heels of the company’s first live auction at the Elegance at Hershey, the company is gearing up for the event at another incredible venue – the Snowmass Club. But the real star of the show is the incredible collection of vehicles that will be displayed and sold during the event. Some of the most highly sought after cars fill the catalog. Here are the can’t-miss vehicles you’ll find in The Finest Automobile Auctions at Snowmass:

- 1969 Mercedes Benz 280SL: Featuring a low waistline, big curved greenhouse windows and a Coupe Roadster with detachable hardtop, the Mercedes-Benz 280SL earned itself the nickname “pagoda top.” The 280SL was the final W113 model to receive an increased engine displacement.
