Mercedes-Benz 500E
From 1990 to 1994 (model years 1991–1994), Mercedes-Benz sold a high-performance version of the W124
the Mercedes-Benz 500 E (W124.036). The 500 E was created in close cooperation with Porsche; each 500 E
was hand-built by Porsche, being transported back and forth between the Mercedes plant and Porsche’s Rossle-Bau plant
in Zuffenhausen, Germany during assembly — taking a full 18 days to complete each model.
Design began in 1989 and into 1991. Called ‘500 E’ through model year 1993, for model year 1994 it was face-lifted
along with the rest of the range and renamed to ‘E 500’.
