That sounds perfect. The story i heard is a businessman wanted to buy a lot of Daimler-Benzes, but would only do so if their names were changed so that his daughter, Mercedes, would be included.
Just backing you up their EvilPaladin!

Wasn't it that after Karl Benz had developed his car he was bankrupt and he went to a businessman who agreed to lend him money, only if he named the cars after his daughter - Mercedes?
All these stories seem to be following the same line at least..

Yes mate you are correct, alright as for the next question.
What was the base price of the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO in 1962?
Near $18,000/20,000 I think.

Well how about we say the currency, because I am not quite sure which Dollar you are speaking of because there are many, such as American, Canadian, Australian, New Zealand.
US$
And don't forget the Hong-Kong $. :)
I would say closer to $10,000.00 USD 12 grand at the most. It was 1962 after all.
It was 18,000 US dollars.
