I will hate to see this car go as I have owned it since 1995. I am the 2nd or 3rd owner, depending on how you want to look at things...apparently the car was ordered as a white 500E by Michael Jackson (yes, the late entertainer) in Los Angeles. When it came in to the dealer, Jackson noted the color difference and decided not to take it. A friend of mine bought the car from M-B...drove it for a year or so...and then sold it to me. Most likely anyone reading this ad knows the basics of the model, but if not here is some info: Mercedes-Benz 500E From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Mercedes-Benz 500 E / E 500 Manufacturer Daimler-Benz and Porsche Production 1990–1994 (Model Years 1991–1994) Assembly Sindelfingen and Zuffenhausen, Germany Class Mid-size, luxury car Body style(s) 4-door sedan Engine(s) 5.0 L M119 V8 Transmission(s) 4-speed automatic Wheelbase 2,800 mm (110.2 in)[1] Width 1,796 mm (70.7 in) Height 1,410 mm (55.5 in) Curb weight 1,710 kg (3,770 lb) Related Mercedes-Benz W124 From 1990 to 1994 (model years 1991-1994), Mercedes-Benz sold a sport version of the W124, the Mercedes-Benz 500 E (W124.036). The 500 E was created in close cooperation with Porsche; each 500 E was hand-built by Porsche, being transported back and forth between the Mercedes plant and Porsche's Rossle-Bau plant in Zuffenhausen, Germany during assembly — taking a full 18 days to complete each model. Design began in 1989 and into 1991.[2]. Called '500 E' through model year 1993, for model year 1994 it was face-lifted along with the rest of the range and renamed to 'E 500'. Specifications and General Information The 500 E had a naturally aspirated 5.0 V8 engine derived from the 500 SL (R129) roadster. Sports car braking performance also came from SL components: front SL 500 300 mm disks with 4-piston calipers came installed on the 1992 and early 1993 cars. The later 1993, and all 1994 cars came with the upgraded 320 mm set taken from the 600 SL. Rear brakes on all years were 278 mm brakes from the 500 SL. In the USA, the 500 E came fully-loaded, with the only options available to the buyer being a dealer-installed CD changer and an integrated cellular telephone. The 500 E was only with four seats in left hand drive, with the four leather seats supplied by Recaro (the fronts heated). Called the "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" by the press,[3][4] performance tests of the day yielded impressive results: 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) times of 5.5 to 6.0 seconds and acceleration through the quarter-mile (0.4 km) in 14.1 seconds at 163 km/h (101 mph). The top speed was redline limited at 6,000 rpm to 250 km/h (~155 mph). It was rated at 16.8 L/100 km (14 mpg) in the city and 13.8 L/100 km (17 mpg) on the highway. With its aggressive stance: 1.5 inches wider track, 0.9 inch lower profile, flared fenders, side skirts, front air-dam and wide tires, the 500 E is easily distinguished from its lesser brethren. Because of its look, limited numbers, hand-built construction, and unique pedigree, the 500 E is already considered a "classic", even within Mercedes-Benz. The car is in great shape.
