The C111 sits in the MB Museum in Stuttgart. As I recall, the car behind it is a land speed record looking car with hand formed aluminum skin. It set the worlds speed record on public roads in the late thirties. I expect that the C111 could have gone about as fast.
It's an amazing thing to see. If you're ever in Germany, do your best to get a chance to see this small but extremely significant museum. Also, you won't want to miss the long line of one off Executive cars that are parked in front of the museum.
Have a great day,
