"1985 Mercedes-Benz 500SEC Hardtop
Mercedes-Benz has sold a number of automobiles with the ""500"" model name, and the nomenclature usually refers to the 5.0L V8 engine under the hood. �Most of the ""500"" badged cars featuring this type of engine are the various incarnations of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class flagship sedan, making it synonymous with the ""500"" vernacular. �However, the engine and model number can also be found on other nameplates such as the E-Class midsize sedan, CL-Class coup�, and SL-Class roadster.
For consignment, a 1985 500SEC (S=S class, E=Einspritzung fuel injection, and C Coupe).� This car is a 2 owner car from Montana and the paint presents with a few dents and dings, scratches and chips and� a few taped over repairs.� It has a new leather interior and the car is original and unrestored with 135,149 miles clocked on it.
Exterior
Anthracite Gray Metallic bathes the exterior of this built like a panzer tank coupe.� This sis the middle of the 80's, so we are firmly in the square and rectangle design era with a single square inset headlight flanking a shiny tri-pointed star in the center of a 2 tier chromed grille.� Body matching Anthracite Gray is on the chrome edge topped neoprene bumper. �The quarter panels and doors have nicely minded gaps and sport a below the mid level trim spear and a gray lower rocker covering which has paint chip off and showing some wear. �On the back of the large spacious trunk we see ribbed self cleaning tail lighting wrapping around the rear quarters, and the 500SEC badge.� 16-inch wheels have been polished and have no center hub so the wheel nuts are exposed.� These are wrapped in 205/60R16 rubber from the 36th week of 2022.��
Interior
The door panels for the interior have a mix of gray leather, dimpled gray vinyl and gray carpeting along with some lacquered burl wood inserts for the actuator and power seat adjuster.� Nice consignor stated newly recovered gray leather covers the wide buckets and these are clean and like new.� A rear bench is in the same pattern and color.� A gray plastic molded console is in the center and this also has burl accenting where the shift lever is located.� There are also window toggles, a mirror joystick, seat heater toggles and a dimmer for the dash. �This burl panel is cracking just a bit. � As we visually move up to the dash we see more burl panels within which is a Becker AM/FM/Cassette stereo and push button climate controls.� Moving further up we see a horizontal panel with more burl to house the AC vents, ignition, and glovebox lock. �Just above are the sweep instruments staring at the driver from under a gray squared off visored panel. �The gray padded dash top is slightly cracked.� Cruise control and a sunroof is seen above and below is gray carpeting slightly worn. �Note, the trunk is also carpeted and has some staining on it.�
Drivetrain
Under the hood is a 5.0 liter V8 with Bosch K-Jetronic EFI and a factory 4-speed automatic on back.� The rear axle is a 2.24 version.� Stock exhaust is in and the engine bay shows some slight corrosion on various cast parts.�
Undercarriage
Plenty of road dirt covers the rust free steel unibody and floor pans which are typical German engineered smooth panels covering virtually everything. �Independent suspension is all around and power disc braking is on all 4 corners.
Drive-Ability
Our consignor states the car runs like a champ so I checked it out and it does. �It starts right up and cruised smoothly with smooth acceleration and good cornering.� The horn didn't honk, the AC blew warm and the driver's side rear window was not working.
A gray on gray S class coupe looking very tasteful in the all gray leather and gray exterior.� Hop in to take a road trip.� And we'll have fun fun fun on the Autobahn..Schnell
