Here’s a gorgeous , with only 8800 miles and a $43k buy-it-now:
quote from seller’s eBay listing:
1994 Mercedes E500 finished in Pearl Black over Parchment Leather interior. This ONE OWNER example is being presented in excellent, garage kept condition. Fully loaded with all options from the factory, this E500 is considered the original AMG Mercedes as it was a joint collaboration between Mercedes and Porsche, it carries with it very subtle OEM body treatments such as front and rear fender flares and enhanced grill. Purchased new in 12/94 from California dealer, this car has only seen 8800 miles and always stored in a climate controlled garage. All service documents from factory Authorized Mercedes dealer, all books, tools, and keys! No accidents or paintwork and is 100% all original as it came from the factory. Considered the lowest mileage E500 in the country known to exist. A collectible car with the comfort and ease of a daily driver!
While there aren’t many E500’s with this kind of mileage — after all, most were driven by wealthy executives who didn’t care about miles — $43k sounds very optimistic. Maybe there are gold bars in the glove box, but I think in this economy, the seller is really holding out for the one in a million (or billion?) that might justify the price for the miles.

I dunno. For the serious Merc fan, this car is just about the best thing they made post-6.9 and is the end of the line for mid-size tank-like MBs.
$43K is a lot, but if the car isn’t suffering from its sitting around unused…maybe. As a Bimmer nut, I’d consider paying similar prices for a like-new E34 M5 if I were very well heeled and the E500 is maybe even cooler.
These things just look so incredibly badass. Minivans come with wider tires and bigger fender flares these days, but the E500 is clearly all business.
I have one of these Mercedes supercars. Also 1993 but with a mileage just short of 100 K. It’s in great condition and a fantastic car to drive. I’m either going to convert it to LPG or I might sell it. Anyone interested can contact me leo.yanc@gmail.com
