86,963 miles • V8 • Excellent driver • Everything works • Priced with the cosmetics in mind
2004 Mercedes-Benz E500 • Only 86,963 Miles • Black / Gray This is one of those cars where the driving experience is better than the cosmetics suggest. With just 86,963 miles, this E500 runs and drives exceptionally well. Everything works as it should, it’s comfortable, quiet, powerful, and would make an absolutely fantastic commuter or everyday driver. These V8 E500s are great highway cars, and finding one with mileage like this is getting harder to do.
Cosmetically, we’d call the body about a 7 out of 10. It presents well overall, but if you walk around it looking closely, you’ll find a few dents, scratches, and miscellaneous cosmetic imperfections. Nothing dramatic or alarming, just a little more evidence of its 22 years than we typically like to see. The good news is we've taken the cosmetics into consideration when pricing it. We’d much rather be upfront about the imperfections and offer the car at an attractive price than try to represent it as something it isn't.
If you're looking for a perfect collector-quality E500, this probably isn't the one. But if you want a low-mileage, great-driving V8 Mercedes where everything works and you won't be afraid to actually use it every day, this one makes a whole lot of sense.
