1993 Mercedes-benz 500e Base Sedan 4-door 5.0l - 83,571 Orig Miles on 2040-cars
Atlanta, Georgia, United States
Rare Mercedes 500E
built in partnership with Porsche Brief history and
condition report- This is a one
owner car and has been in GA since 1993. Well serviced by RBM of Atlanta. The
car has NEVER been neglected and no maintenance has ever been ignored or
delayed. At 83,571miles, the car is performing perfectly. Not even a fluid
drip of any kind on the ground. Never damaged or smoked in. All factory
original paint still covers the car. The interior is also original and in
amazing condition with soft leather. Each and every creature comfort and power
option operates correctly. All mechanical and electrical components are
functioning properly. There are no service indicators illuminated and I am
aware of no issues requiring repair. New Michelin Pilots were installed with
under 5000 miles on them. I will provide more detailed information below. Most
of us know the pedigree these rare Benz performance Sedans carry. Very low
production numbers for the few years they were produced. With window sticker
prices of $80,000 twenty years ago, these are in fact a rare breed. Mercedes
Benz in every way but unique in almost all respects. These cars were a joint
venture between MB and Porsche. They were hand built at the Porsche factory and
transported back and forth several times during assembly between the two plants
in Germany. One look at the wide-body fenders front and rear is the most
visible discerning characteristic of the 500E. The 5.0 liter V8 provided by
it's 500SL brother is a hidden benefit that boasts 322 horse power and a 0 to
60 time of just over five seconds. These cars were hailed by all who tested
them and received glowing reviews in every publication that had the privilege
of examining and driving one. I will not bore you here with technical data or
statistics. You can research for yourself on the internet if so inclined. In
short, these are incredible automobiles even by today's standards. The body and
paint are in impressive original condition considering its age. There are minor
scratched and road rash expected. There are a few scratches and road rash as to be expected from a 21 year old vehicle. There are two door dings on the driver/rear fender (not worth mentioning) and one on the passenger front fender. There is sadly a small ding in the grill. Please note: The European headlamps with wiper-delete
panels ($3000+) were a very costly upgrade that was performed when the car was
near new. I welcome showing my
Mercedes in person to anyone with genuine interest. I live very near the Atlanta
Airport and would gladly pick you up. Each photo shows the Benz clearly and
accurately from as many angles as I could think of. It is my intention to make
this as close to you seeing and touching the car for yourself as possible. Feel
free to click on the "ask a question" link here in the auction and I
will respond to all polite questions. Phone calls are great too. My telephone
number is 770.329.3295 and calls between 8AM and 9PM Eastern time are
fine. My auction runs for 7 days. I reserve the right
to end my auction early in the event I accept a genuine offer and my Mercedes
becomes no longer available. *If you are outside
of the U.S. or Canada, PLEASE contact me to confirm your bidding activity as
genuine.* Everyone, please be
sure to read my terms of sale located near the bottom of this screen. I'm a
reasonable person but I will not bend on these basic terms unless previously
discussed during the auction. A little communication goes a long way. NO RESERVE AUCTION starting June 2nd 2014 I did not set a
reserve price on my Benz. All that I ask in return is for your bids to be real
and your intent to purchase is sincere. I took every picture you're about to
see in my driveway at home 3 days before this auction started. No photo has
been altered or enhanced in any way. This is my car and these pictures are true
to her in-person appearance. I have described my Benz honestly
and to the best of my ability based on over 25 years of owning and driving
classic cars. I have 100% faith in the drivability of my Mercedes and
everything is in excellent working order per my written description provided
above. I enjoy driving her without concern and would not hesitate taking a
cross-country trip today but she is over 20 years old so routine service and
repairs should be expected based on her age. If you are not comfortable with a
sight-unseen purchase, please come see the car for yourself or have an
independent inspection performed PRIOR to bidding, NOT
after. I will not be responsible for the decisions of others. Free and clear
Oregon Certificate Of Title will be provided. I would appreciate
the winning bidder contacting me immediately upon end of auction just so
the lines of communication are opened. My telephone number is 503-575-0404 TRANSPORT - SHIPPING I am happy to be an active and hands-on
part of this entire process from start to finish but the buyer is ultimately
responsible for pickup or shipping of this vehicle and any pre-purchase inspections
need to be done BEFORE auction ending. If you wish to
have it shipped using a service, I will gladly assist in loading and be present
for the transport condition form and other reasonable help. Locating a
transporter is the buyers responsibility but I can make recommendations and
share the relationships I've built. Vehicle transport has become very
reasonable. I personally use a privately dispatched trucking company. They
have handled my transport needs perfectly for the last several years with
careful handling, excellent rates and fast service even all the way to the East
Coast. I will provide contact info at your request. Dependable Auto Shippers
(D.A.S.) is a transporter that eBay recommends and my experiences with them
before I started using only private carriers were just fine. My location zip
code is 30317. Coast-to-Coast transport is around $1200.00 and even
less the closer you are to Atlanta. Shipping to Australia, Europe and other
Countries has also become affordable and easy to arrange. *If you are outside of the United
States or Canada, you MUST contact me
to confirm your bidding activity as authentic.* If you are an eBay
member with negative history or have a (0) or even a low transaction score, I
need to hear from you just to verify your sincerity and accept your bids
as genuine. We all started from (0) and I'm happy to give a leg up. I reserve
the right to cancel bids at any point for these reasons. Email or phone contact
is fine. Communication is all I ask. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time if the vehicle is no longer
available or otherwise SOLD. |

2015 Mercedes-Benz S550 PHEV offers the best of both worlds it's ready to conquer
Thu, Nov 20 2014The Mercedes-Benz S-Class just keeps growing – both in terms of dimensions and in terms of variants. Nevermind the S-Class Coupe for a moment and focus only on the sedan: in North America alone, you can get the big Benz in S550, S600, S63 and S65 spec, and at the Los Angeles Auto Show this year, Daimler has rolled out the new Maybach version as well. But if it's a more environmentally friendly way to woosh around town in serene luxury that you're after, you'll want to look at the new S550 Plug-In Hybrid. Joining Daimler's growing range of battery-powered models alongside the E400 Hybrid, B-Class Electric Drive and Smart ED (the latter soon to be replaced by an all-new version), the S550 PHEV is the German automaker's first plug-in hybrid. It was first announced over a year ago and made its debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show last year, but now the US-spec car is making its North American debut in LA. Promising "the performance of a V8 and the fuel consumption of a compact model," the S550 PHEV pairs a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 to an 80-kW electric motor, the S550 PHEV packs a combined 436 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque to reach 62 in just 5.2 seconds, top out at 130 miles per hour or drive up to 20 miles on electric mode alone. On the European combined cycle, it'll return an impressive 84 miles per gallon, all the while never skimping on the luxury. Scope it out in our gallery of photos from the show floor in LA and delve into the details in the press release below. First PLUG-IN HYBRID with a star: S550 PLUG-IN HYBRID The new Mercedes-Benz S550 PLUG-IN HYBRID blends an ultramodern hybrid drive configuration with the unique innovations and the luxurious equipment and appointments of the S-Class. The luxury sedan impresses with exceptional dynamism and efficiency. Thanks to standard pre-entry climate control it also offers unique climate comfort. The first certified three-liter luxury sedan in the world is a further milestone on the road to emission-free mobility. "The S550 PLUG-IN HYBRID is the first luxury sedan with the performance of a V8 and the fuel consumption of a compact model. The greatest challenge in this is to translate efficiency into superior performance. In this respect there is a highly interesting parallel with our successful Formula 1 racing car, which likewise has a turbocharged V6 engine and a high-tech hybrid drive," says Prof. Dr.

Race recap: 2015 Singapore Grand Prix full of odd sideshows
Mon, Sep 21 2015What greeted the Formula One teams in Singapore? Confusion. The haze was so thick that observers wondered if the race would be held at all. Then practices began, and Mercedes-AMG Petronas driver Nico Rosberg took the first one, but the team fell away after that. Mercedes said it couldn't get the tires turned on, but no one believed the Silver Arrows was in genuine trouble. Then qualifying set the confusion in stone. Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel laid down the best time in Q3, taking the team's first pole position since Germany in 2012. Daniel Ricciardo got his Infiniti Red Bull Racing into second, about one tenth behind Vettel. (That may make the team feel better after Ricciardo publicly asked for a better engine than the current Renault unit, and team advisor Helmut Marko said the outfit will quit F1 at the end of this year if it can't get a stronger powerplant for 2016.) Kimi Raikkonen put the second Ferrari in third, Daniil Kvyat put the second Red Bull in fourth. And only then came the Meredes'. Lewis Hamilton's best got him fifth, the Brit saying, "We don't really know what we have got wrong. For some reason the tires are not working on the car. We do the warm-up the same as everyone else and then you see someone one second up the road." For added emphasis on the reversal of fortune, his time was 1.6 seconds behind Vettel's. Teammate Rosberg is next to him in sixth, a further half a second back. Williams is still a hurting a bit on slow tracks, so Valtteri Bottas could only get into seventh ahead of Max Verstappen in the Toro Rosso and teammate Felipe Massa in ninth. When the red lights went out, the 2015 Singapore Grand Prix would get both less interesting and more interesting all the way to the final lap. The men up front got good getaways, and the order into Turn 1 was Vettel, Ricciardo, and Raikkonen. The race finished with those three in that order, never having conceded position. Vettel's Ferrari enjoyed the track so much that he laid a second per lap into Ricciardo for the first five, then relaxed. He'd let the gap come down later in the race a couple of times, but any time he wanted to see what his mirrors looked like without anyone in them he'd take off again. Rosberg took fourth position after holding down sixth for the first stint. It looked like he'd have an even worse day - for a Mercedes driver - when he had problems getting his car started and onto the grid before the race.
