I have no personal interest or stake in the eventual sale of this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 500 SEC 2dr Hardtop.

[Porsche 68]

68 thousand miles new upholstery? Normally these seats last forever cracked dash Car must’ve been out in the sun a lot Otherwise great car great color combo but I would say 5 thousand is all the money. John

This is a bargain, even with that dash pad.   Some know these as "the bankers hot rod."  A bow shot by Mercedes Benz, an S Class gem.    One of the last 2 door hardtop models made.  

I looked for one for years, and still occasionally look.  The problem is - these cars are good for 250,000 miles or more and owners love to drive them.  So to find one for less than $10,000, with 68,000 original miles, is nearly unheard of.  

Kind of boring color, yes, but this and the even nicer 560 SEC are truly collectible and enjoyable.  I always wanted a 560 SEC and a 560SL combination.  The best of both worlds.  

[Sal Hepatica]

One of the very few Mercedes that I thought was attractive when they were new. Sort of a Teutonic update on a '63 Galaxie fastback side profile with an early Mustang inspired front end. Most Mercedes styling, in my opinion, was of the "Checker Cab school of boring".

 

If I remember correctly, the rear windows don't go all the way down.
