1994 Mercedes-Benz E60 AMG W124

This 1994 Mercedes-Benz E60 AMG began life as an E500 destined for the Japanese market. It was immediately taken in by AMG Japan and converted to an E60 AMG with a 6. 0-liter M119 V8. Finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744) over Black Leather (271), additional features include O. Z. AMG Aero III wheels, extended Burl veneer, heated seats, a Nakamichi 100td head unit, two Sony 10-disc CD changers, and a period KKM speaker system.

This E60 AMG is in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition - details below. It currently shows 207k kilometres (~128k miles) and is offered from our collection near Brighton, U. K. with records, two keys, and literature.

The body shows the original E500 flared fenders, paint-matched bumpers and lower cladding. Exterior features include clear corner lights, amber side indicators, headlamp washers and wipers, lower fog lamps, and a single-piece AMG badge on the boot lid. Above the fender markers is a KKM decal. The paint is believed to be original and the body rust-free. Detailed photos of the body are included in the gallery.

O. Z. AMG Aero III wheels measure 17x8. 5 up front and 17x9 in the rear. Tires mounted are Bridgestone Potenzas measuring 235/ 45 and 265/ 40 respectively and show 2015 and 2016 date codes. The wheels show very minor imperfections in the lip finish and no lug cracks are noted or visible.

The interior is trimmed in Black Leather (271) with matching door panels, armrest, dashboard, and centre console. Extended Burl veneer is shown on the centre console, dashboard, doors, and the AMG steering wheel. The ashtray displays the AMG insignia in the veneer. The heated front seats are electrically adjustable with memory settings, and the rear seats are divided by a Burl veneer storage space. Additionally, the cabin features a period KKM speaker system controlled by a Nakamichi 100td head unit. The components are installed under carpet throughout the car and behind an upholstered cover in the trunk. Two Sony 10-disc CD changers are mounted in the trunk. The exterior bolster on the driver seat shows some creasing and wear.

The leather and wood-trimmed AMG steering wheel frames a 300-km/ h AMG-branded speedometer, a tachometer, and a combination gauge for coolant temperature and fuel level.

The AMG 6. 0-liter M119 V8 sends power to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. Power is estimated to be 376 horsepower and 428 lb-ft of torque. The original AMG exhaust is shown on the car with stamped square tips.

Records since new have been kept with the car showing service and maintenance history. We imported the E60 AMG from Japan in 2021, at which point it underwent a meticulous mechanical overhaul at John Haynes Auto Technics totalling nearly £17, 000 and passing an MOT without comment. Invoices detailing these works are available upon request. The car has been preserved in this condition since, and is not registered in the UK. Heralded as “Peak Mercedes”, “Exclusive Super Sedan”, and “Perfection Improved” the E60 AMG has grown into its own over the last decade and become widely recognized as one of the ultimate sleepers of the 90’s and in true AMG form completely above and beyond the necessary. Starting with the muscular 5. 0L M119, AMG punched an extra liter of displacement out of the engine with more aggressive stroke and bore, hotter camshafts, different pistons, and an AMG intake and exhaust for less-constrained breathing. There is one other detail we must draw attention to for this super sleeper- the ultra-custom KKM stereo. From the Nakamichi head unit to the full speaker conversion and down to the duelling Sony CD Changers this E60 should be an obvious choice for audiophile petrolheads.
