The exterior is finished in Polar White (149) and features contrasting lower body cladding, V12 badges on the quarter panels and an S600 badge mounted on the trunk lid. Exterior equipment includes a power tilt/slide glass sunroof, remote central locking, heated and power-operated door mirrors, pop-up reversing guides, headlamp wiper/washers, an automatic antenna, an electrically-heated rear window and fog lamps front and rear. No signs of rust or body damage are present on the vehicle.
18” Lorinser D93 five-spoke wheels are finished in chrome and come fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires measuring 255/45 on all four corners. The date codes on the tires are from 2003. No signs of damage or curb rash are present on the wheels.
The cabin is finished in Black Leather (261) with matching black carpets, black floor mats and Burl Walnut wood trim which lines the center console, dashboard and door panels. The wood trim shows no signs of cracking or fading. Both front seats are heated and power-operated with pneumatic lumbar adjustment and driver-side memory. Interior features include dual-zone automatic climate control, automatic belt presenters, power windows front and rear, a power adjustable rear view mirror, cruise control, an 11-speaker Bose audio system and an Alpine head unit.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 240-km/h speedometer along with a 7k-rpm tachometer, an analog clock and gauges for fuel level, economy, coolant temperature and oil pressure. Below the cluster sits a row of warning lights with a digital outside temperature sensor. The digital odometer currently shows just under 60k Km (~37k miles) with 4k Km added by the current owner in the past two years of ownership.
This pillarless coupe is powered by a 5.0-liter M119 V8 which produces 315 horsepower and 345 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. The seller reports that an engine oil and oil filter change was performed in 2022.
This 1994 Mercedes-Benz S500 coupe is now offered for sale by the current owner in Fairburn, Georgia with partial service history, a clean Georgia title in the seller’s name.
Driving and underbody videos have been provided by the seller below.
On the brink of the auto industry migrating away from high displacement and naturally aspirated power plants, the M119 V8-powered Mercedes from the 90’s remain flagships against even the newest iteration of the S-Class and other modern luxury options. This example was imported from Japan to the states making it a true JDM car with associated instrumentation. In addition, the low mileage and condition makes this example incredibly attractive sporting handsome Lorinser wheels finished in chrome. For a collector looking to acquire a C140 with a unique story and low miles, this example is certainly hard to pass up.

@pepaglobal You are 100% correct. It has the regular rear suspension, that hydraulic suspension is nothing but a pain in the butt.$8,750 bid placed by @pepaglobal
@seller If I am not mistaking, these euro 140 have regular suspension and not the hydraulic rear suspension which is not worth the headache and expense. On my 140 sedan I converted the rear hydraulic suspension to regular springs and shocks, the best thing I ever did. I love all W140, hoping to find nice (and reasonably priced) Grand Edition.$8,000 bid placed by @jspitz

Do you have that shield, or is it gone?$7,500 bid placed by @pepaglobal
Good Afternoon, There is nothing on this vehicle that does not work. Everything works as if it came of the factory line yesterday. Radio wiring harness is intact in the vehicle. Stock radio is also available with the vehicle.Is there anything on the car that doesn't work? And do you know whether radio wiring harness is intact or was it cut to install aftermarket radio - I would be interested in refitting a stock radio.@Rich that says a lot, thank you!@rubinhoward600 Good Afternoon, Wiring harness was inspected by a certified Mercedes Benz technician who advised it was in good condition. There is also a carfax from Japan attached that can be translated for all service records. In additional, I have records for the services I had preformed on the vehicle Additionally, I am personally guarantee a 6 month warrantee on the vehicle to the purchaser (via a notarized letter) as I stand by the immaculate condition of this vehicle.I may have missed it, but has the wiring harness been inspected / or replaced? This falls within the year for the biodegradable wiring harnesses.$6,000 bid placed by @jspitz
Please watch this video. Thx. https://youtu.be/ZA8rVtt0NiI@Rich, I saw the 10-minute driving video, but did not see any visuals or references to those components. Is there another video or did I miss something in this one?@jspitz Please watch the video for a full view of the unit those wires connect to. It’s two a tv component that was installed in Japan.$4,000 bid placed by @cory
@Rich, what are all of the exposed wires in the trunk (visible in photos 91 and 92)? It looks like the mats in the trunk are covering part of them. Would it be possible to upload photos of that area with the floor mats removed and the wiring plus any other equipment back there (maybe an audio amp?) all exposed? Thank you.$750 bid placed by @wab1993
@Ilovebigtoys That would absolutely be your preference. For me, my focus wasn’t badging more looks and functionality. Vehicle looks and drives amazingly. .How does s V8 become a V12? Cloning! Hahaha I am bidding on the car and the first thing I would do was to rip the fake badging off!Explain that!@Highheat It’s a V8 500. BUT, has the power of a 600!!!@Ilovebigtoys That is Correct it’s a v8 s500. Previous owner put the 600 badges on itIs’s a 500 V8! Not a 600 V12! Did Napoleon walk by?!LolS600 badge on trunk.$250 bid placed by @Ilovebigtoys
