For sale is my absolutely immaculate and fully loaded 1995 Mercedes-Benz E320 Cabriolet. RELISTED Due to previous buyer at $18,600 backing out at last second due to his wife not letting him transfer funds out of a retirement account. Please do not bid unless you are serious. This car was handed down to me from my grandfather who passed away recently. He treated it like his baby, literally, for the 14 years he had it. Originally purchased by Bono in Los Angeles, California (Lead singer of U2) and was used in the music video for "I've Got You Under My Skin" featuring Frank Sinatra and Bono. A classic California car and comes with a clear California title. The car was restored at the Mercedes-Benz Classic Center in Irvine, California in July of 2006 when it had just over 96,000 miles on it. Below is the laundry list of OEM reconditioning the car had that my grandfather spent over $20,000 on. CALL 424-298-7978 TODAY! This car is listed on all major sites and local advertising and as such will not last. I can guarantee you will not find another one this nice. Why this car is so special: *Originally Celebrity Owned *OEM Factory Restored and Reconditioned by Mercedes-Benz STARMARK, with only some 30,000 miles put on the car since. Over $20,000 for the resto job. *September of 1995 Production Date! The production line ended in September and this is literally one of the last HAND BUILT Mercedes to leave the factory. VERY RARE car. Only several hundred were made. This was the only full-size 4-seater convertible Mercedes has ever made. *As part of the reconditioning, the engine and transmission were rebuilt with factory components. Every component from the crankshaft to the head gaskets to the rod bolts were replaced and every single moving part of the transmission was replaced (clutch packs, bearings, gearsets etc) *Meticulously Maintained and serviced well before scheduled maintenance was to be done by the owners manual. 91 Octane Premium was ALWAYS used. *Paint is in STUNNING shape with not a single dent on the entire car. NO major scratches. Absolutely no scuffs anywhere. Never taken to automatic car wash! Always gets comments, especially at Mercedes car club events. In the past few years some very high offers were given and my grandfather refused to sell the car. *Looks and drives like a brand new car. The engine starts up with only one or two turns of the ignition and idles so smooth you can't even tell the car is running. NO tapping, leaking or squeaking from the engine. While driving there are no creaks, rattles or weird things usually typical of older vehicles. Suspension operates perfectly and is very nimble. Not a single crack in the dash or wood set. In fact, the wood set still looks nearly as perfect as it did from the reconditioning with just a few very small scratches. *EVERY DEVICE on the car works perfectly without a hitch! From the heated seats to the power headrests, to the convertible top, to the brake booster. No service lights are on. * The leather interior from both the seats to the door paneling is in PERFECT condition with absolutely no rips, tears, or beat up hide. Very supple and soft yet firm. Most unrestored car leather will feel "shiny" at this age...that means the leather is worn out! Not the case here. *Cosmoline rust-proofing (the shiny gold material) under the hood is still in perfect shape! Notable Options: - Heated Seats- Power Headrests- Power Roll Bars- 6 Disc CD Changer w/ Premium Sound- Alarm System Recent Repairs & Service as recorded on service records from Mercedes dealership: *New Cabrio Top Hydraulics (over $1,000 bill)*New Emissions equipment (cat converters & sensors). Will pass any 50 states emissions without a hitch.*Four New Michelin Tires*Air Conditioning Recharged. BLOWS ICE COLD. Compressor has a datestamp on it from July of 2006.*Transmission Fluid Changed for 30,000 Mile Interval*Rear Axle Fluid changed*New OEM Mercedes Battery*Coolant and Brake Fluid flushed, New Brake pads and rotors for all 4 corners. Another $1000+ bill. There was probably a slight scoring of the rotors that prompted them to be changed as my grandfather was very anal like that.*$250 Detailing job done this past week by luxury detailer and the car is sitting in the garage waiting for the new owner. CALL 424-298-7978 The new owner will receive all books and service records and the two original sets of keys. The license plates are not included as they were personalized and are now hanging on my garage wall. I had the dealer put fresh plate covers on it from their service department. As this is still a 20-year old vehicle it is being sold as-is with no warranty implied.
