This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 500SEC was initially delivered to Autohaus Pompano in Pompano Beach, Florida, and it remained in that state with its original owner until the selling dealer’s acquisition in 2023. Showing 89k miles, the car is powered by a 5.0-liter M117 V8 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission and is finished in Classic White over blue leather upholstery. Equipment includes 17″ eight-hole wheels, a sunroof, heated power-adjustable front seats, a Sony stereo, cruise control, and automatic climate control. This C126 500SEC is offered at no reserve with a window sticker and a clean Florida title.
The car is finished in Classic White with gray lower cladding and features a power sunroof, a power antenna, and polished aluminum trim. An August 1986 entry on the Carfax report lists an accident with another motor vehicle that resulted in damage to the rear of the car. The power antenna does not work and there is damage to the front left fog light.
Silver 17″ eight-hole wheels are mounted with a mixed set of Firestone Hercules tires. Braking is handled by power-assisted four-wheel discs with ABS.
The cabin features heated power-adjustable front seats upholstered in blue leather along with a color-coordinated lower dashboard, door panels, and carpeting. Amenities include a driver-side airbag, a Sony stereo, cruise control, and automatic climate control. There is a stain on the trunk carpet.
The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 5,500-rpm redline, an analog clock, and gauges for instant fuel economy, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 89k miles.
The 5.0-liter M117 V8 was factory-rated at 184 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque, which is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. The seller dealer notes that the hood insulation is missing.
