The 500 E was developed in cooperation with Porsche, where the necessary redesigns were made to accommodate the 5l V8 engine from the SL (M 119 E 50), and partially assembled at Porsche Werk 1 in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen. The main reason for this was a problem with the production line for the W 124 in Sindelfingen: The body of the 500 E, which was 5.6 cm wider than the other W 124 models, did not fit through in three places. It was therefore agreed with Porsche that assembly would also be carried out in Zuffenhausen. Porsche produced the front fenders, for example, which were created from production fenders into which the extensions were welded. Same as Porsche did, back then, with the 911 Turbos in the `70s. The completed body was then sent by truck to Sindelfingen, where it was painted. Final assembly and engine fitting again took place in Zuffenhausen. Finally, the finished vehicles were again transported to Sindelfingen for final inspection and acceptance.
Production of a 500 E took 18 days.

Considering this is a Japan import, are the EU taxes and duties paid for already? Was the car registered in EU?

Thanks for the quick reply! One more question, are the rims on this car OEM MB Limited 500E rims?

Hi Sebastian, these are OEM rims in perfect condition. The car has some more interesting features like air intake vents below the headlights and an AMG exhaust.
