We have just received this excellent 1 owner example of a 500E. It is an enthusiast owned southern car that just turned 40,000 original miles, and is in stunning, like new condition. A non-smokers car, it features a brilliant Black Pearl exterior on a complementing Grey Leather interior. Excellent service history, new tires, original spare, all books and keys, etc. Only 498 1993 500Es were sold in the United States at a cost of over $80,000. These cars were hand-built in conjunction with the Porsche 959 Team and featured many characteristics never seen before on a sports sedan. It took eighteen days to complete a single car and Mercedes-Benz lost money on every one they sold. The amount of engineering and attention to detail that went into this car is beyond imagination. Don’t confuse the 500E with any other E-Class of the time; these cars were different in nearly every single fashion. The 500Es 315hp, 5.0L V8 engine will still hold its own against most contemporary high-performance sedans, including Porsche’s newest Sedans, the Panamera and Panamera S.
