Congrats to the highest bidder you got yourself special treat. Thank you all for interest in this ultra rear set of wheels.

@B613P Thank you on the compliments for the car, they did excellent job. Regarding the cracks, those two on the dash where there since I bought the car. On the winshield I got that chip aproximately 7 years ago and never addressed it. I've been told by benzfan that he changed his windshield and got an original for about $500 CAD. After Bring a Trailer I parked it in a heated garage and took it out end of July this year and drove it about 300 km). I havent noticed any changes on any of the cracks. I got copy of the Export Certificate (original goes to authorities I guess) and Vehicle Import Form. I got that from previous owner and he is the one who imported the car. I will give you regisitration and insurance pink slip. Hope I was helpfiul.

@Benzfan84 Good morning, of course you are more than welcome. Tomorrow I won't be available but you can come today if you want.

@gsxr I bought the car with with this headlights. I think previous owner was fiddling with them and that they are aftermarket. Passenger side headlight was flickering last time I took it out of the garage and my mechanic put NOVSIGHT H4 LED Headlight Bulbs - 60000LM 900% Ultra Bright H4/9003/HB2 LED Headlights. Hope this was helpful.

Hello to you all and welcome to an auction for a extremely rare 1997 E60 AMG.


This rare and unique vehicle offers a chance to own a piece of pre-merger Mercedes/AMG history. In 1998, AMG became a majority-owned division of Mercedes-Benz. However, prior to that, in 1996, AMG produced the E50, a model similar to the well-known 1999-2002 E55 AMG. The E50 featured an AMG 5.0L M119 engine and was built at AMG's shop in Germany, with only 2,780 units produced between 1996 and 1997, none of which were available in North America. As a special option, buyers could choose an E60 package that included a 6.0L version of the M119 engine, paired with a 5-speed transmission. With a conservative rating of 381 horsepower (reportedly closer to 420) and nearly 450 lb-ft of torque, the E60 could accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 4.9 seconds.

The E60 was available only through special order at dealerships or from authorized AMG tuning shops. This particular vehicle, E60 AMG number #39, was hand-built in Affalterbach, Germany, and ordered by Braunschweig Mercedes-Benz. Fewer than 200 units were produced over two years world wide and they were never offered to the North American market.
