Most likely not one of the 12, but we'd need the VIN to confirm. Also, the AMG body kit is not necessarily fake, it is probably genuine.... just modified to fit the .036, and not correct for the .036... but that doesn't mean it's fake.

That is all true, but unless someone has seen this car in person and verified the AMG Gen2 kit is aftermarket/fake, we can't really say. It is possible to modify geniune AMG parts, which IMO does not count as "fake"... just incorrect for the 036.

I think the car looks great and I would love to own it, fake or not. It looks great and if it has an AMG-built 6L powerplant, I'd be happy. Now I just need a winning lottery ticket!
Really need to get the VIN on this one.
Can't believe MBworld would put this on show when it's fitted with non standard/stock bits. Those window deflectors and hood star missing....c'mon !Obviously just got attracted with its low miles.
That's another typo. It had to be built in 1995 at the latest.
Good catch. Likely a code 958 Limited that was sent to AMG for a 6.0L upgrade post-purchase... i.e., no code 957. It will be interesting to see what, if any, response Arnt gets.

VIN = WDB1240361C208913
Code 958 only (Limited), so the 6.0L and/or full E60 (i.e., including suspension) conversion came after delivery.
NOT one of 'The 12'.
Note the muppet's answer was purposely vague, yet again.
The current asking price of £85k ($128k USD) is pure lunacy, IMO, for a car that is a Limited without the original interior, and is not one of the 12 true E60 Limiteds. Yes it's a very nice car with nice upgrades, but I don't see anything here to command that kind of premium. The Japan auction sale price of ~$50k USD is closer to reality, IMO.
C208913 is a different car... click here. That one has a red interior, AMG engine, and Gen2 body kit.
I feel like that should be $137,043.99, "if you order now, with free shipping", for effect.
First i found 15, but was confused by grey leather )) Realy close finßs, 13 and 15.
Sadly no, I've being searching everywhere but no luck!
If I understand correctly, in this thread are now 3 different cars, all ex-Japan Ltd's in sapphire black:
Hello Guest!
The new 500Eboard Registry is now live and available to the entire community. It currently contains all 1,528 U.S.-market and 85 Canadian-market 500E and E500 models delivered for the 1992 through 1994 model years.
You can search for individual cars by VIN, FIN or production number; explore production statistics, paint colors, interiors and factory options; view vehicle history and related forum discussions; and browse photographs for hundreds of documented cars.
This information has been compiled and researched continuously since 2003, and much of it is now available through 500Eboard for the first time. You can open the Registry at any time using the red 500E Registry button at the top of the forum—or by clicking below:
We hope you enjoy it. A lot of blood, sweat and tears over more than two decades have gone into building this resource.
Cheers,
