1993 Mercedes 500GE Body

 

Spotted in Netherlands is a 1993 Mercedes 500GE Body for €8,950 Euro.  These are rare 1 year only cars with only 500 examples built in 1993.  This was the first time Mercedes and AMG worked to shove a 240 HP  5.0 V8 M117 into the engine bay.   The majority of these cars were painted purple with a handful of other colors available if the customer requested it.  Mercedes doubted that they could find enough customers willing to pay 200,000 Deutschmarks so they were sold only by word of mouth.   Customers interested would be given silver tie clips with an engraved G silhouette when signing the purchase contracts.   After taking delivery of their new 500GE cars , the customer received a framed artist engraved rendering of their car numbered and signed.  These items are rare to find.   It is interesting that this is the only G wagon model that only has 2 lockers.   The center and rear differential lockers are included but the front differential was deleted.  There are only a handful of these cars legally imported into the USA today.  There are 2 that I know of that are smog legal in California with  BAR stickers.
