Re: FS: 1993 500E, Pearl Black/Gray, 19kmi, $90k (Ontario, California)

Seemingly nice car, + euro headlamps. I wonder what the story is with the vinyl separation on the center console (on a 19K mile car!). Easy fix though.
 
Re: FS: 1993 500E, Pearl Black/Gray, 19kmi, $90k (Ontario, California)

Seemingly nice car, + euro headlamps. I wonder what the story is with the vinyl separation on the center console (on a 19K mile car!). Easy fix though.
The center roll-top box blemish looks like some bizarre damage to me. Only a few years ago those console box top pieces were still available new (cheap, too). Should be able to replace with a good used top section though.


The car does look nice, but IMO the asking price is ALL the money and then some (in the current market). Once again, it appears to be a $90k odometer that comes with a free car. It does look like it could be nicer than the Canepa offering though!

Re: FS: 1993 500E, Pearl Black/Gray, 19kmi, $90k (Ontario, California)

Comments on GCFSB by Al and ace10 are spot on. Too bad there's not a "like" button for the comments. :p
 
Re: FS: 1993 500E, Pearl Black/Gray, 19kmi, $90k (Ontario, California)

20 or so G high, but that also depends on all that was done...if she is Ready to go, well...some negotiations are in order but at least you won't be dumping 5-7K in right off the bat.

Al sure sounds like my friend/client...not many ppl of the sub 20K example that was bought for 72K soooooo:-P

Anywho, I don't mind that these cars are bringing money. Compared to what people are paying for Porsches 500E's are a damn steal.

93 500E 20KM AUCTION FRIDAY 1-19-18

There is a low mileage California car crossing the auction block in Scottsdale tomorrow (Russo and Steele). She's been advertised at Hemmings for $99K. Will be interesting to see what she brings.
 
Re: 93 500E 20KM AUCTION FRIDAY 1-19-18

I can't find any 500E in the Russo and Steele catalog for the January 17-21, 2018 auction. There are 3 other (older) MB's, but no 500E (or E500) listed:

Re: 93 500E 20KM AUCTION FRIDAY 1-19-18

I searched for Mercedes, 500E, and E500 and got nothing from their website.
https://russoandsteele.com/scottsdale/


EDIT: Finally found it... their website is NOT user friendly:
https://russoandsteele.com/vehicle-...search_text=mercedes&page=featured&showpage=1

It's under Consignments, which may be part of the issue with locating it on their site. Still no VIN.

I'll take the Black Series at #2582... Although they appear to be giving away R230 SL's as door prizes.

Wow!! Someone actually paid $72.6K that would be plus taxes and registration in whatever state it ends up in.
Only about $10K short of the original window sticker. That has to help keep the values up for all of us E500E owners to some degree.

Thanks to “gmwind” Greg’s friend we finally got the VIN# for Gerry.

I suspect we will not be seeing much of the car from here forward. It will probably end up in a dark corner in some collection never to be seen again. UNTIL said “New Owner” wants to flip it for an additional $20K+
 
Re: FS: 1993 500E, Pearl Black/Gray, 19kmi, $0.1M (Ontario, California)

I think the price sold (less auction fees), is just about a bang-on market-correct price for a car like this. I knew that it wouldn't sell for anywhere NEAR the $85-99K expected price.

It is evident that in the recent past, and for the present, the E500E market has cooled off a bit. The nicest cars will continue to go up, of course, but the general market price has cooled.

That's not to say it won't pick back up in the future, as it will, but for now we're in a market "breather" -- which is also a great opportunity to buy/acquire.

I can remember, it wasn't too many years ago, when this same exact car with this mileage would have been a $30-35K car.

Cheers,
Gerry

P.S. Thanks to the Dariator, who initially started the thread !!

:plusone:

I would have been really surprised if it went for $90k+. There have been a few documented sales in the past year, at the ±$70k range for a 20-30kmi car with near zero cosmetic issues.

Note this particular car is a common color combo; my gut feeling is that a more rare / desirable combo could have pushed the price higher. Ditto if it were 100% stock (original headlights, wipers, wheels), or a 1994 model. Wonder if the original parts are included, since the stock headlights are NLA, making it difficult to return to stock.

Speaking of which... I can't tell from the pics, but are those 18" monoblocks or 19"? Looks like 19" to my eyes, which means W140 wheels with spacers (yuck).

1993 Mercedes-Benz 500E 20K Miles Near Showroom Cond

Location: Chandler , Arizona, 85225
VIN #: WDBEA36E1PB949822
Mileage: 20490

Seller’s Description:
European Motor Studio is very proud and excited to offer this truly exceptional 1993 Mercedes-Benz 500E finished in Black Pearl Metallic over Grey leather. After leaving the Mercedes-Benz Stuttgart factory in March of 1993, it was invoiced to Mercedes-Benz North America and then shipped to Foreign Motors West, INC. in Natick MA where it sold to its first owner on December 20, 1993 at a cost of $81,700. The car then moved to Miami Florida some time in 1998 where it lived until the second owner purchased the car and finally moved it to Southern CA where it has been for many years covering only 20,290 miles from brand new. The car has a good service history through the Mercedes-Benz dealership and has always seen the proper care and storage. The original Pearl Black Metallic paint is exceptional and original top to bottom. There are no defects on the car aside from a small scratch on the lower skirt and two small stone chips on the front hood. All of the glass and trim are original with no visible defects. The interior is near new with the exception of two hairline cracks on the wood trim on the lower center console by the passenger heated seat button. The dash is perfect as are the seats and carpets. The Mercedes built M119 5.0 V8 engine was a modern marvel for the car world. Stuffed inside the 124 chassis E-Class, the V8 engine produced 322hp and propelled the 500E to 60mph in under 6 seconds. It has incredible power and pull beautifully through all of the gears. The car has just been service at Mercedes-Benz of Chandler along with a new rear leveling shock. The ride is firm but smooth and free from any issues. The steering is nice and tight with excellent road manners. All of the electronics are operating as designed including the original Becker radio, power antenna and the rear power sunshade and sunroof. All of the original zinc plating and coating is still found on the engine and the undercarriage is spotless. This is an incredibly rare opportunity to acquire one of the lowest mileage 500E's in existence. Having been built as collaboration between Porsche and Mercedes-Benz, the 124 body 500E is a highlight in Mercedes-Benz rich history. The larger front and rear body skirts and wider body fenders are some of the small touches that differentiate the 500E from its 6 and small 8 cylinder sisters. The beautiful Recaro bucket seats are another handcrafted touch that add to the aesthetics of the 500E's interior and course the mighty 5.0 liter V8 engine with a Porsche designed suspension system give the performance to match the elegant and aggressive looks. A clean and clear Carfax and title are accompanied with the sale of this 500E along with all of the original books, tools, spare and copy of the window sticker.

Price: $79,995 negotiable

Re: FS: 1993 500E, Pearl Black/Gray, 19kmi, $0.1M (Ontario, California)

Just because I like to pixel peep - missing L/R sealing strips in the engine bay (trivial) and Chrsyler TC by Maserati in the background (can't remember when's the last time I saw one of those!)

I'm sure Nothing Compares 2 U or Ice Ice Baby was probably on the radio when you did. ;-)

Guilty as charged. hahahahaahahahahahahahaahahahahha! Vanilla Ice is/was a 5.0 man, but Sinead should have named her song “NothIIINGG Compares 2 UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU” ;-)
 
Re: FS: 1993 500E, Pearl Black/Gray, 21kmi, $80k (Chandler, AZ)

SOLD, per the Hemmings site.
 
Re: FS: 1993 500E, Pearl Black/Gray, 21kmi, $80k (Chandler, AZ)

I wonder if they got their $0.08M for the car, as advertised.

They were in it for $72.6 from the R&S auction. Call it $73 with short transport. Can't imagine a flipper bothering with it for less than a few $K profit.

I think it probably sold for $77-78.

I beleive an acquaintance of mine bought this car. Certainly it’s in the SF Bay Area now, arrived today. He has exceedingly clean cars, a W126 420, a W123, and a 993. He shows his cars and does well with them.

I think I just saw him enthusing about it on FB. That car got a good home...

Yep, Andy bought it. I saw your comment on his thread. It’s going to end up very minty if he keeps it. He routinely goes to concours events with his 420SEL and cleans the clocks of people with Gullwigs, pontons etc.
 
Interesting how this started at $90k-$100k ask, and ended up selling at auction for $66k + fees... later re-sold (why?!) for a little more than the auction buyer paid? Seems like a short honeymoon.

Car looks REALLY nice in the photos.

:pc1:
 
Yep, another documented case of "bird in hand"-itis from greedy sellers who think they've got all that and more.

Love seeing these things come down to Earth dramatically. Fairly well bought by the current owner, I'd say, particularly if he's going to give it the full "captreric" treatment. He deserves a pat on the back.

The original $0.1M dreamer seller deserves a swift kick in the nuts ass for being greedy.
