1992 Mercedes-Benz - 500E

Product Details

1992 Mercedes-Benz 500E, finished in Blue-Black Metallic with a black leather interior. Factory equipment on this 500E includes leather upholstery, a rear sunshade, headlight wipers, various power-adjustable features, and more 1990s luxuries detailed below. The seller reports that modifications are limited to the addition of an aftermarket head unit, speakers, and amplifier.Nicknamed the "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing," the 500E was a high-performance variant of the W124. Mercedes-Benz commissioned Porsche to assist with re-engineering the W124 chassis to fit the 5.0-liter "M119" V8. The widened fender flares made the chassis too big for the W124 assembly line, leading Porsche to step in to help with assembly. The back and forth movement of each 500E chassis between the Mercedes-Benz and Porsche factories for different stages of assembly resulted in an 18 day assembly time. Roughly 1,500 were imported into the United States between 1991 and 1994.Power for this 500E comes from a 5.0-liter M119 V8, rated at 322 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque. The engine spins the rear wheels via a 4-speed automatic transmission.
