Mercedes-Benz E60 AMG Limited. In 1990-1994 Mercedes-Benz cooperated with Porsche and built a high performance version for the W124 E- chasis, it was called the 500E. For the last 500 1994 500E’s built were branded “Limited”. 200 silver paint and 300 midnight blue. AMG walked in Mercedes-Benz Germany’s stable and picked 12 500E “Limited” to be fitted with 6.0L M119 V8 engine. THIS IS ONE OF THE 12.
The AMG tuned V8 produced 376 bhp at 5,500 rpm 428 lb/ft at 3,750 rpm clocking in 0–62 mph in 5.2 seconds. The results were so favorable that AMG considered building E60 for customers upon special request. The package included the tuned AMG v8, other AMG components, suspension, electronics and the optional 3-piece staggered OZ “monoblock” wheels.
This car can only be described as a time warp it’s a good as the day it left the showroom, it has to be the most original car of its type available.
Truly fantastic condition throughout
I'd rather do away with all the cosmetic, limited edition flak and just get to the heart of what makes an E60 such, the 6L M119 powertrain. Even though, I would hate to feel like I had a penetratable glass wall around me driving such a rare car, even to limited venues. But then aren't we all with our coveted AMG stablemates?
These come up once in a while in Japan - there's one right now on Japan Yahoo. Opening bid of about $42k (with a reserve) - 50k miles. I would guess a good number of the original 12 are in Japan.
