This 1999 Mercedes-Benz S500 was sold new in New Jersey and relocated to California in 2000 where it has remained ever since. Finished in Black (040) over Black Leather (261), power is provided by a 5.0-liter V8 mated to a five-speed automatic transmission driving the rear wheels. Factory equipment includes a power sliding glass sunroof, Xenon headlamps, remote central locking, soft-close doors, self-leveling rear suspension, heated and power-adjustable front seats, heated rear seats, dual-zone automatic climate control and a Bose audio system. The rear self-leveling shocks were replaced in 2023 along with window regulators and a new battery. The car was acquired by the current owner in July 2025 on The MB Market who has added 1,700 of the total 71k miles. This 1999 S500 is now offered for sale by the owner along with the help of a friend in Los Angeles, California with a clean Carfax report and a clean Montana title.
The long-wheelbase body is finished in Black (040) and exterior equipment includes a power tilt/slide glass sunroof, Xenon HID headlamps with heated washers and wipers, front fog lamps, heated power door mirrors, remote central locking and soft close doors. Minor scratches are visible on the body with no signs of rust or damage and no accidents shown on the Carfax report.
Authentic 18" AMG Aero II monoblock wheels are fitted and come wrapped in a set of Continental Extreme Contact tires. The self-leveling rear suspension maintains a constant rear ride height regardless of cargo load.
The cabin is upholstered Black Leather (261) with Burl Walnut wood trim lining the center console, dash and door panels. Both front seats are heated with 14-way power adjustability. Interior appointments include dual-zone automatic climate control, cruise control, a power adjustable steering column, heated outboard rear seats, an auto-dimming rearview mirror and a Bose audio system. The front passenger seat seam shows some separation in the center as seen in photos. The passenger side window regulators were replaced in 2023.
A leather steering wheel fronts analog instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, an analog clock and gauges for fuel level, economy coolant temperature, and oil pressure. The digital odometer currently shows just under 71k miles, approximately 1,700 of which have been added by the current owner.
This W140 is powered by a 5.0-liter DOHC M119 V8 which is rated for 315 horsepower and 347 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed 722.6 automatic transmission. Maintenance performed in 2023 includes new self-leveling shocks in the rear and a new battery. An oil and filter change was reportedly perfomed at the beginning of the year.
The Carfax report shows first registration reported in New Jersey in 1999 followed by California beginning in 2000. Linear mileage updates are shown with no accidents or damage reports present. This 1999 S500 is now offered for sale in Los Angeles, California with a clean Carfax report and a clean Montana title.
