Description:

When it was unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in 1990, the Mercedes-Benz 500 E immediately stood out as both a technical and emotional highlight within the W124 series. Developed in cooperation with Porsche, this exclusive high-performance sedan was equipped with the 326 hp 5.0-liter V8 engine from the Mercedes-Benz SL 500. Final assembly in Zuffenhausen at Porsche emphasized its hand-built character and exceptional engineering pedigree. Visually understated, the 500 E concealed its true performance beneath subtly widened bodywork, a lowered sports suspension, and driving dynamics on par with contemporary sports cars—qualities that made it a discreet icon in its day and a highly sought-after collector’s classic today. This example, finished in Bornite Metallic, was delivered on October 15, 1992, through Mercedes-Benz Nürnberg. It is one of the desirable early Porsche-assembled models. With a mileage of 134,500 km, the vehicle presents itself in well-maintained condition. The elegant color combination, paired with the powerful M119 V8 engine and the legendary W124 ride comfort, makes this 500 E a rare opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts alike. A Classic Data appraisal report is available.

Engine: 5 litre-V8-engine M 119, 4.973 cm³, 326 hp (factory data)
