Description
The Mercedes-Benz and Porsche collaboration produced the 500E, a hand-built vehicle manufactured from 1990 to 1994. Each unit underwent a meticulous process, involving transportation between the Mercedes-Benz facility and Porsche's Zuffenhausen plant, requiring 18 days for completion. The E500 Limited featured a naturally aspirated 5. 0-liter V8 engine, sourced from the 500 SL sports car, along with its braking system. Later 1993 and all 1994 models incorporated the larger front brakes from the 600 SL. Dubbed a "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" by automotive journalists, the E500 Limited showcased exceptional performance, achieving 0-100 km/ h in 6. 1 seconds and a top speed of approximately 280 km/ h.
In the 1994 model year, Mercedes-Benz introduced the E 500 Limited edition. Initially planned as a limited production run of 500 units, Mercedes-Benz ultimately produced 951 vehicles in 1994 and into 1995. The E 500 Limited was identified by the internal code "958". This model featured upgraded trim, including a distinctive patterned leather on the seat inserts, steering wheel, and gear shift; exclusive bird's-eye maple wood trim on the dashboard, doors, and center consoles; 17" EVO-II alloy wheels; a lowered ride height compared to standard E 500 models; custom floor mats; and a leather-bound owner's manual. Three seat insert leather colors—gray, green, or red—were offered to customers.
This low-mileage vehicle has been expertly maintained by a Mercedes-Benz specialist, with recent servicing addressing common issues such as the wiring harness. Recent work includes replacement brake pads, distributor cap and rotor arm, spark plugs, and inspection of the electronic throttle actuator and mass airflow sensor. The A/ C compressor has been serviced, and all fluids have been replaced.
This limited-edition model is in excellent condition and is becoming increasingly rare, particularly with a comprehensive maintenance and service history, which this vehicle possesses.,
