Vehicle Detail
OH….MY….GOD. You want THE nicest 1994 Mercedes E320 sedan you’ll EVER see, EVER? This is it folks. This is an absolutely stunning E320 time-capsule, in absolute mint mechanical and cosmetic condition, never any accidents, never any body or paintwork, incredibly low highway miles, and most importantly, PROPERLY SERVICED ITS ENTIRE LIFE WITH INVOICES/STAMPS TO PROVE IT! This car was serviced no-expense-spared and it shows. It needs nothing but a new owner, and looks/drives like a brand new car. It even SMELLS new inside! Awesome custom-order 582 imperial red paint over black leather, heated seats, rare traction control, and much more. Lots of recent service, one owner since new, all books, keys, and in condition that you have never seen before and will never see again. This car wintered in Florida and spent summers in PA. -- Here is your next car -- Please let me stop you now if you are looking for a typical E320. This is most definitely NOT that car. This is a collector-quality all original car. There has been no paintwork, no leather dye, no glass replacement, no headliner repairs. It is 100% original down to the perfect unmarked OEM alloy wheels. How do you keep a car in this condition? Don’t ask me, I have no idea how an original 18 year old car can look like this. It’s unreal. It’s been babied its whole life, and hardly even went out in the rain. When you see the undercarriage pictures, you’ll know what I am talking about. This E320 will kill a 2010 MB e350 with 20K miles for cosmetic and mechanical condition, and feel on the road. NO E320 YOU CAN BUY WILL BE BETTER THAN THIS ONE: IT TRULY NEEDS NOTHING. The previous owner was a 67 year old, 110 lb female. Therfore, the driver’s seat is still perfect, and I can’t even tell if anyone of the other seats were ever used! Here's the deal: -- It's a 1994 Mercedes E320 in custom-order 582 imperial red exterior over black leather interior. And not the charcoal today that everyone calls black….this is authentic old-school black leather. It has only 76,xxx original miles (4200 miles per year), looks like a million bucks, and drives like a million bucks too! Garaged every day of its life. These photos are all taken after a wash and vacuum; no detailing of any kind. – -- The options include factory ASR traction-control in perfect working order, heated front seats, and then all the usual standard W210 equipment like power seats, windows, automatic climate control, AM/FM/cassette stereo that sounds better than 99% of today’s multi-thousand dollar optional systems, sunroof, etc. LOADED! -- -- Look at all the records and stamps in the MB maintenance booklet. From new in 1994 unti today, everything is included. This car was recently inspected twice, and needs nothing. WOW!! -- -- Exterior 9.90 out of 10 (I'm finicky) - Fantastic overall condition paint, body, glass, and trim. No dings, no dents, no scuffs, no scratches, on an 18 year old car!!! Some small touched-up rock chips to the hood are the only signs that this car was ever on the road. This car looks amazing, with a deep shine to the glossy imperial red paint that's like looking into a mirror. This car looks great even under fluorescent light in a garage! -- -- Never any accidents, and wears all the original body panel, paint, even the bumper covers. This car spent much of its life in FL since new, and was always garaged. Even the lower side-body moldings are in great shape. Chrome, rubber, glass, trim is all excellent. No oxidation, fade, wear, rust, etc. Headlights and windshield are clear and do not have ‘road-rash’.-- -- Check out the undercarriage on this eighteen year old car……I’d eat my dinner off of that, it’s just astoundingly clean. -- -- Look at the body panels.....they are perfectly straight. -- -- The 15” tires on OEM polished alloys have 90% tread remaining. But at the buy-it-now price, I will also include a SECOND set of brand new winter tires in size 195/65/15. The OEM MB alloys are true with no bends, and are cosmetically near-perfect. The car drives straight as an arrow at any speed you choose. -- -- Interior 9.95 out of 10 - The black leather interior overall including all seating and door leather, seat padding, dash, console, and carpets are in amazing original condition. No dash cracks, carpet rips, very little wear of any kind on the leather (driver’s bolster shows zero wear). Everything looks and feels new; you can’t even tell anyone has been in the car. No smoking ever. -- -- The door panels and zebrano wood trim are also in amazing shape, like the rest of the car. There is NO fading to the wood. The wood has NO stress cracks. The rolltop center locking storage console looks PERFECT and works PERFECTLY. -- -- Even the headliner, trunk and spare are perfect. The spare is new and has never been on the ground, tools are new, first aid kit in rear parcel shelf is new, etc. It’s like a BRAND NEW 1994 car!! – -- Electrical 10 out of 10 - All lights, switches, radio, windows, wipers, seat motors/memory, and power mirrors work perfectly. Headrest motors, vacuum lock system, etc. all operating properly. The HVAC system is fast to respond, and perfect with hot heat and ice-cold A/C. -- --Mechanically 10 out of 10 - Engine starts, idles perfectly smooth at 650RPM, runs, and revs to redline in every gear smooth and strong. Transmission is smooth yet aggressive, and downshifts eagerly. The car runs at high speed with no vibrations or noises. There are no leaks. -- -- Engine is strong and VERY eager to run, transmission smooth and ready to drop down two gears at your command to propel you past slower traffic. Brakes are solid and pedal feel is firm. Suspension is tight like new, but floats on a cloud just like a W210 is supposed to do. Steering nicely weighted with no play in the box. This car drives and handles like new. -- -- It has all books/manuals, three keys, and complete service history including all warranty records. You name it, it’s been done. With only 76K miles, this car is not even broken in yet! Full inspection by mechanic already complete. All you have to do is drive. -- -- If someone selects the buy-it-now option, I will provide the following: a set of new winter tires, a full $200 detailing including engine bay, carpet shampoo, leather conditioning, orbital polishing, etc. I'll also include MB OEM floor mats, a car cover, and ToughGuard paint protectant. This stuff is simply amazing for durability, as it will last up to five YEARS. Dealers charge up to $695 for this stuff! That’s nearly $1500 in value all included at the BIN price! Wow! -- -- Nits: The LCD outside temp display in the instrument cluster is out. That’s a $60 repair and I will credit the buyer for it or get it fixed, your choice. THAT'S IT. NOTHING ELSE. EVEN THE DAHS LIGHTS IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, CONSOLE, WINDOW SWITCHES, ETC ARE AT 100% BRIGHTNESS!! -- -- I have good feedback, and sold many Audis, BMWs, Acuras, and Benzes that the new owners are thrilled with. They and others have offered to act as references to verify that I am honest in my descriptions of the cars I sell, and you are welcome to contact them. -- THIS IS A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME CAR, AND IT'S AN UNBELIEVABLE DEAL!! If you have questions, please call Bruce at 856-912-2600 or email me in advance.
