In addition to being a one-off vehicle with a renowned past, the Trossi Roadster has a very special meaning for CMC. It goes back to the onset of the CMC company in 1995, when Shuxiao Jia and Herbert Nickerl, the two company co-founders, introduced the first CMC-made model car by replicating none other than the Trossi Roadster in 1:24 scale. Immediately after its release, the CMC miniature was voted “Model of the Year” by a professional magazine. While the vehicle is considered to be one of the most valuable Mercedes-Benz classics in the world, the CMC replica was held to do a fascinating justice to the car. Count Carlo Felice Trossi came from the Gaglianico noble family in Biella of northern Italy and was born in 1908. As a motor sportsman and racing driver, he was elected Vice President of Scuderia Ferrari 1931. Gifted at the driving wheel, he finished second in the 1932 Mille Miglia. SSK Chassis 36038 was initially delivered to Japan devoid of a body in 1930, and from there – still without a body – it was shipped to Rome, where it got a buyer and a coach body. Next to signor Antonio Maino, Count Trossi became the second owner of the car in June 1933. He commissioned Willi White, an English coach builder with the implementation of a new body design that he had sketched on a piece of paper. It was an extremely aerodynamic design and surprisingly in accord with the contemporary trend.

Brand new box. Real rubber tires. Has opening toolbox. Officially licensed product. Opening engine compartment. Made of diecast with some plastic parts. Detailed interior, exterior, engine compartment. Dimensions approximately L-8, W-3.5, H-2.75 inches. By 1931 Alfa Romeo and Bugatti had become serious contenders for Mercedes-Benz on the race track. Professor Ferdinand Porsche, head of Mercedes-Benz’s racing car development, responded by reducing the weight of the SSK, known as "White Elephant" because of its mighty appearance, overwhelming power and white painting. Over 125 kg were shed after holes were drilled in the frame and every other possible place that was not safety-relevant. As a result, the SSK transformed into the SSKL (Super Sport Kurz Leicht = Super Sport Short Light). With this new racing car, Afred Neubauer (head of the racing department) and his very small crew, undertook their greatest racing adventure ever at the Mille Miglia in 1931. 11th April, 3:20 pm: Rudolph Caracciola and his co-pilot Wilhelm Sebastian, start-no. 87 faced the hopeless fight against their over-powerful Italian opponents. Die 1,635 km long race track leads from Brescia over Florence to Rome, further over the Abruzzo to the Adriatic Coast and from there back again to Brescia over Bologna. 12th April, 7:22 am: The winner of the Mille Miglia crossed the finish line, in a new record time, after 16 hours, 10 minutes and 10 seconds. With an average speed of 101,1 km/h. And – the sensation is perfect- for the very the first time, a driver from a foreign nation with a foreign car: Rudolph Caracciola, the titan at the steering wheel. Whereby Mercedes could barely support him because of an economical crisis. Even for the single pit stops there were not enough men available, so they had to play turtle and the hare with their driver – abbreviations made it possible.
