This 1996 Mercedes-Benz E50 AMG was originally ordered and built as a European-Market example. The current owner acquired the car in Canada in 2016 and the car now has only 13k km (~8k miles) from new. Finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744) over Anthracite Leather (581) interior, power comes from a 5.0L M119 engine which sends power to the rear wheels via a five-speed automatic transmission. Standard equipment includes AMG bodywork, 18” monoblock wheels, heated front and rear seats, a power rear sunshade, power-folding side mirrors, automatic climate control, and more. Service records since 2010 are included with the car and regular oil changes are noted by the seller. This Euro spec W210 AMG is being offered with service records, two keys, manufacturer’s literature, and a Canadian registration in the current owner’s name.
Finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744), this E50 features an AMG styling package which includes sculpted front and rear bumpers, extended side skirts, factory rolled fenders, AMG badging, and dual chrome exhaust outlets. Other exterior features include fog lights, headlamp washers, and a sunroof with tilt function. As a Euro spec example, there are no amber corner lights on the front bumper strips and instead, a turn signal indicator light is located on each front fender. The seller notes inspection of each body panel and underbody determined this to be a rust-free example. A single blemish in the paint on the decklid is noted by the seller.
Factory staggered 18” AMG Monoblock wheels with machined lips are fitted with Pirelli P-Zero Nero tires that measure 235/40 up front and 265/35 in the rear with 2008 date codes noted. Minor curb rash can be seen on some of the wheels as seen in the gallery. Euro spec W210 AMGs came with a slightly lower ride height from the factory compared to US models. A full size spare Monoblock is shown in the trunk.
The cabin is trimmed in Anthracite Leather (581) and accented with black birdseye maple wood grain adorning the center console, dash, and doors. Matching wood door handles and accent strips are fitted on all four doors. Features include an electric rear sunshade, a power sunroof with tilt function, heated front and rear seats (a very rare option), dual automatic climate control, and power-folding side mirrors. An aftermarket head unit is installed. The OEM floor mats will come with the car and are pictured in the trunk.
An AMG steering wheel featuring dual-horn buttons frames the AMG gauge cluster which displays a 280km speedometer and 7k-rpm tachometer along with auxiliary gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The center screen displays outside temperature and time with all working pixels in working order and no warning lights. The odometer now reads 13k km (~8k miles).
The AMG-tuned 5.0L M119 V8 engine was rated at 347 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque when new and was mated to a 722.6 automatic five-speed transmission which sends power to the rear wheels. Service records since 2010 are included with the car and regular oil changes are noted by the seller.
This 1996 E50 AMG is now offered with service records, two keys, manufacturer’s literature, and a Canadian registration in the current owner's name.

@parklandmb Sorry, I've missed the comma in the photo for the front right fender and was really confused. But tnx for uploaded autocheck pics@apollo13 First off, welcome to this wonderful auction site. It appears that you just joint. Secondly, what are you eluting to by saying "based on paint meter readings do you have a carfax?" All paint meter readings indicate that this car is still in original paint. Thirdly, see the newly provided and uploaded AutoCheck in the gallery. (Thank you MBmarket for providing this!)Neither U.S. or Canadian Carfax retains a report for this VIN but we have uploaded an Autocheck report for this vehicle in the gallery.Based on new pics with paint meter readings do you have a carfax?Additional paint meter readings have been uploaded to the gallery@puffincars as per your request more pictures have been taken and submitted.$21,250 bid placed by @Puffincars

M119 E50 AMG is such a beautiful rare car! good luck on this sale.$1,250 bid placed by @SRP1
@ all interested parties. Please do not hesitate and reach out with any questions. If you wish to see pictures of other areas of the car let us know. We also invite all interested parties to come and see the car in person.@gsxr thank you for your kind comments! Indeed, this car is a time capsule in every aspect. Very well preserved and a one of a kind E50 left in this condition. And sorry, there is no history as to when the car got to Japan. However, we think the car was sold originally in Germany and then made its way over there early in its life. Given how well preserved the car is it has always been with a caring owner explaining the well-preserved condition.$1,000 bid placed by @cmscollect
Is there any history of the car being imported to Canada? Headlights are for left-hand traffic (Japan/UK) which indicates the car went from Germany to a LHT country before migrating to Canada. Car looks amazing - what a time capsule!
