Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes-Benz :-)

 Capitals Insider, Mar. 27, 2009:

Alex Ovechkin's collection of sweet rides just got even sweeter.

Surrounded by a small crowd of fans and teammates outside KCI this morning was Ovechkin's newest toy: a brand-new, 200-mph Mercedes S65 AMG Black Series.



Its price tag is about $250,000, and only 350 are expected to be produced worldwide.

Ovechkin now owns three AMGs (one of which is modded), a Porsche Cayenne GTS and a souped-up BMW M6 (it's in Russia).

Mike "Lambo-Greenie" Green's got a Lamborghini and Sergei Fedorov's got a Maserati and a Ferrari. But Ovechkin's collection of hot sports cars is unmatched around here, and the S65 tops the list. You could put this thing on a NASCAR track and it would win any race, hands-down.

It also makes the Caps' parking lot arguably the best in the NHL (I'm thinking it also might rival the Wizards').

Check Ovechkin's first car:

Alex Ovechkin: "My first car was Russian made Zhiguli, model 6" (VAZ-2106)." It was produced from 1976 to 2001 by VAZ from Togliatti, the home town of Victor Kozlov.

The 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG is a sports car of 2009. It has a top speed about 185 miles per hour.
