This is known as the four-door Porsche. That's because it was hand built for Mercedes-Benz by the Weissach boys, who also tuned the chassis. It has a 5.0-liter V8 that developing 322Hp and 354Lb-ft of torque - 90 percent of which available from mere 1500RPM. The keen eye will spot the slightly flared fenders and the Recaro seats. It also has beefed-up brakes and hydraulic self-leveling suspension, on which the car sit slightly lower then standard.
We purchased this car from the second owner, a Porsche collector, in 2002 with 62000 miles on it and has been my wife personal car for the last years. She drove it less than 3000 miles a year in the last 11 years, with no winter driving.
It has never had an accident still has it original paint job in excellent condition.*
This unique car started as one of only 374 E500's sold in the United States in 1994 at a base list price of $80K. It features a Black Pearl exterior on a complementing Gray leather interior.
Comes with original eight-hole wheels. Documented ownership history, all books, manuals and records. Non-smoker, factory radio, original keys, original tool kit, original spare. Always garaged. It has clean CarFax as well.
It has been serviced at Mercedes-Benz of Devon and MB of West Chester.
The care with which the car has been treated is reflected in the way the car feels and drive.
Finished in Black Pearl metallic with an unmarked and totally original pale gray leather interior complemented by burr walnut woodwork.One of the most collectable a rarest last 500 series hand built cars produced in the US.In cherished condition and maintained by marque Mercedes enthusiast Zmotorsport this is amongst the finest to be found, having covered just 90k miles from new.Offering supreme value when you consider this car cost over $80k in 1994 and giving the quality only well cherished car can.Probably the finest example offered today.
Comes with an original car cover and an additional set of eight-hole wheels and tires.
Absolutely unbelievable inside and out. A rare and perfect driving example.

Bought a '94 E500 in August of this year. Absolutely love the car! Drove it up until Thanksgiving. Like driving it more then my 2010 E550. Put away now for the winter.
Be sure to get a PPI, they are costly to keep going.

Thank you guys. I already miss it.
Definitely the 90's had some awesome cars along with the Audi RS2, Porsche 965, 993 GT2, Bmw M5 Alpina, Lotus Carlton, E500. Money was not issue in the engineering department therefore cars were just superb.
Happy New Year and more Happy driving for all the Rennlisters!

want to add one of these to the 'experienced' list badly. adding another expensive maintenance car right now could be suicide, though. love the color combo! looks like a top level example.

one more thought - it's too damn bad the panamera doesn't look this good!! this thing is just classic power and brawn.

Lovely car. GLWS. If I had a larger garage, it would be mine.
