In the market for a new toy and only have room in the garage for one, so finally after 10 years of ownership, the 500e is going to a new home. VIN WDBEA36E6P8979477

This has always been a 2nd/3rd car for me and it has seen only 33,xxx miles in my 10 years of ownership. Always garaged, rarely driven in rain, never in snow. Originally a southern California car. Star Marked till 2000 as well. Carfax is clean, although I don't have a current one just yet, still sorting through a few details, getting pics, collecting all the stuff that goes with the sale, etc. So be patient, I will add to this listing as I get caught up.

This 500e is heavily modified, so if you are looking for a bone stock car, this isn't the one for you. This will be sold as you see it in the pictures, plus a factory W124 car cover and a bunch of spares.

And one more round of pictures. Front seat picture shows a small seam split that was resewn (not by myself) as it was present when I purchased the car.

Also shown is the small tear in the carpet (behind drivers seat). Rear bumper picture shows some small scratches (touched up) by the exhaust tips.

Re: 1993.5 Signal Red 500E 171k miles, $28.500

Beautiful car. I saw Jeff0093's signal red car at the DC meet and the color is really striking. Pictures don't do it justice. Good luck with the sale!
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

Wow, I can't believe this car is for sale. I've seen it and it is very, very nice and Rik has made this into a real gem. If I was in the market I would not hesitate to jump all over this car.
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

I've seen Rik's car a couple or three times over the years and enjoyed some nice visits with him. I am crushed he is selling, as I consider Rik part of the 500Ecstasy "old guard" members.

This is a very nicely kept & true enthusiast-owned car. Modifications are done the right way.

Good luck with sale. *sniff*
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

This is a badass car and worth every penny imo. Good luck with the sale (not that you'd need it). Too many poorly modded cars on the market - this one looks like it's been done properly!
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

Wow... the end of an Era. GLWS Rik.
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

Beautiful car, and the type of owner we should all inspire to be. The car is better now than it was new IMO. 8-)
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

Wow. I am not worthy but I'm gonna keep staring at this. I wonder if my wife would let me have another one.
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

Price updated.
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

Any updates Rik? ...just wondering...
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

Any updates Rik? ...just wondering...

I was hoping to get this back on EBay, but no free listings promo's as of yet. Otherwise, I did replace the gasket on the power steering reservoir, not much else to report. Open to offers.
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

I can't believe this car is still not sold.
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

Kinda how I feel about my '94 ....... Also open for offers. See FS listing.
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

I can't believe this car is still not sold.
Me neither. Super rare color, great condition... what gives?

:blink:
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

What a car this is.... Glws
 
So, you need Another one, Arnt? Makes me wonder when every good 036 is for sale, what will it be replaced with? Help me out here....Roger

:D He He - I guess I don't.
But it is always tempting objects out there, and Riks' car has always appeared special IMO with the tasteful mods for that particular color, flawless maintenance and owners record.


:mbstar::mbstar::mbstar:
 
Arnt,

You should buy it!!

You will have the only 500E in Norway in "ARREST ME RED".

Seriously, Rik's car is a gem. I have always liked it and if I could afford another 500E I would buy it.
I don't think for the $$$ he is now asking you could get one in any better condition.

Take Care

Maybe so, but I want an answer, what do you, they buy to replace what can not be replaced. E60?
 
Re: FS: 1993.5 500E, Signal Red / Cream-Beige, 171kmi, $28,500 (Kirkland, WA)

Price is down to 22.5, but I can't seem to edit the title of the post.

I wish you would have been selling when I bought mine.....that price seems like crazy good deal

Roger, let me think aloud; the flat racing red color on this car screams supercharging to me - it really belongs to it IMHO. :checkeredflag:
A set of 19" black Rennen Forged R55 could fit nice as well (...wheels is always a never ending story you know..)
