74 798 Miles/Service Records/3.2L DOHC I6/4-Speed Auto/Classy Classic Cabriolet

1994 Mercedes Benz E320 Cabriolet

”The Mercedes-Benz E 320 was a quartet of luxury cars comprising a sedan, a wagon, a coupe, and a convertible. The model was part of the greater Mercedes-Benz E-Class, and it ran between model years 1994 and 2009. Initially, the sedan and wagon offered seating for up to five, while the coupe and convertible seated as many as four. All four body styles incorporated 217 horsepower, 3.2 liter six cylinder engines. In 1998, 4MATIC®, the proprietary Mercedes-Benz all wheel drive system, debuted, and in 2005, a CDI trim with a diesel variant of the V6 became available.” [hidden information]

For consignment, a 1994 Mercedes Benz E320 cabriolet with a title verified 74,798 actual miles. The car comes with service records which indicate head gasket replacement and an updated Adelphi upper wiring harness. According to our consignor, the top is newer, this may be one of only 6,140 produced, and with options, was about $81,000 when new.

Exterior
This handsome car is unmistakably Mercedes with the distinct front fascia and three pointed star on the hood. In true 90’s fashion, this car is predominantly Brilliant Silver Metallic but the lower body panels and bumper covers are a contrasting gray and the two toned cab is topped by a dark blue canvas top with glass rear window. In back, the tail lights contour to the nicely designed diagonal edge of the decklid which latches low and is opened and locked by the cylinder below it. You will not find details like that on your economy box. 15-inch Mercedes wheels carry Michelin 195/65R15 tires with a mid 2025 date code and the car carries a PA inspection to July 2027. The body, paint and trim are in fantastic shape with imperfections noted as chips, inclusions, a long scratch on the front bumper, and chin scrapes.

Interior
No black or saddle here; it’s Dark Blue for the inside starting wonderfully on the nicely designed door panels with a pleated insert, smooth quality materials, and a burl wood detail plate, both doors presenting cleanly. Blue leather also covers the front bucket seats and the rear 2+2 with some light creasing on the driver’s seat on otherwise near perfect units. The leather wrapped steering wheel leads to the typically efficient instrument cluster that leaves no guessing and includes a clock within the tachometer. Wood trim spans the dash for more warmth, and also serves as the overlay for the center stack holding toggles, A/C panel, and original AM/FM/Cassette radio. Class on wheels is evident by the center console, a wood base housing the shifter, window controls and other switchgear. Plush blue carpet floods the floor with matching mats and the trunk is fully finished in plush gray cloth that covers every side.

Drivetrain
Under the hood we find a clean 3.2 liter DOHC inline six cylinder with 217 horsepower, fuel injected, and mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission that routes power to the rear axle with 2.65 gearing.

Undercarriage
Belying its age and mileage is the underside which presents cleanly. Here’s where we note power disc brakes on all four wheels, fully independent suspension with coil springs at both ends, and a single exhaust system flowing through original equipment. We note a drop or two of oil but it does not appear to be an active leak and is residual in nature.

Drive-Ability
We expect a solid ride with good power and a comfortable interior and this pampered product of Sindelfingen delivers on all expectations.  It is, to steal another brand’s moto, the ultimate driving machine and with the potential of open skies above, a wonderful weekend chariot. Other than the radio needing an access code, all functions on board work as they should.  While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

In 1996, Mercedes went back to the quad round headlight face for the E320 which some found polarizing. This one maintains the more modern configuration and it’s almost hard to believe that the car we’re looking at is more than 30 years old! It still looks good. It still smells of wealth. It’s still a great car.
