The Mercedes 500E. launched in 1991 and continued until 1994. was a high performance version of the W124 Mercedes. produced between 1986 and 1995. It was spectacularly built and well known for its ability to handle large amounts of power. The 500E was collaboration between Mercedes and Porsche. Rumored to be using secrets from its cancelled 989 sports sedan project. it stuffed many of the mechanicals from the 500SL roadster into the W124.

Germany during assembly. taking a full 18 days to complete each model. The Mercedes 500E is a rare car indeed. especially in the United States. Between 1991 and 1995 about 10. 00 were built. but only 1. 05 of those came to the United States. The 500 E had a naturally aspirated 5. 0L V8 engine derived from the 500 SL roadsters which produced 326 horsepower. Sports car braking performance also came from SL components such as front SL 500 300 mm disks with 4-piston calipers came installed on the 1992 and early 1993 cars.

With its aggressive stance: 1. 5 inches wider track. 0. 9 inch lower profile. flared fenders. side skirts. front air-dam and wide tires. the 500 E is easily distinguished from its lesser brethren. Because of its look. limited numbers. hand-built construction. and unique pedigree. the 500 E is already considered a "classic. even within Mercedes-Benz. The 500E created the formula for the performance based AMG models that are still produced today. " |
