1994 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe
Available is a 1994 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe, a big 2-door Mercedes known for power, safety and speed. This is the Coupe product of the W140 platform, which had a very successful run from model years 1992 – 1999. Technically a C140, this body style S-Class Coupe ran only from ’93 – ‘96.
The S-Class was known as the flagship of the Mercedes-Benz line at the time, though most were built as sedans, making the Coupe much more striking with total production limited to 26,000 relative to 406,000 sedans. This car may look familiar as we sold it previously – watch our review video where we address this. Owner who purchased from us in 2023 has not used the car even to driving it 1,000 km. He safetied is for Ontario licence plates and has not driven since. At the time of the September 2023 safety, he had a new oil pressure sensor installed.

Black finish is original and remains of good quality. In the absence of B-pillars, the car’s profile is quite striking with the windows lowered. The two-tone look comes from original grey moldings in place below the beltline – light marks are noted from the photos. Wheels have been upgraded to 18” AMG Monoblock items, which do show some curb marks. Up front is a pair of Michelin Latitude tires measuring P235/55, while the rear is equipped with a pair of Goodyear Eagle RS-A’s, P245/55, tires were reported to have been installed very recently (different tires were observed by the appraiser in 2022). Emblems and light lenses are complete and unmarked. One of our favourite features on this car are the parking antennae – given the car’s size, these raise automatically when reverse gear is engaged to give the driver a sense of depth when rolling backward – please see our video. These pre-date the concept of reverse cameras. The gallery shows a couple of blemishes – light surface bubbling is seen on the front end of the front driver’s side wheel arch and a dent likely fixable by a good PDR tech is shown on the hood. For perspective, both are photographed with a coin. A trailer hitch is installed – some time ago, the previous owner would periodically tow a lightweight aluminum boat.
On the inside, you name the mid-‘90s feature and this C140 will likely have it. Heated power front buckets featuring power-operated headrests, climate control with A/C blowing cold, original M-B AM/FM/cassette head unit as well as driver’s side and passenger’s side airbags are in place. Wood veneer in fine condition and perforated leather storage console cover add to the package. Grey leather remains supple and is free of tears. The rear of the cabin shows off a true 2+2 look, with a console separating the two seats, which also feature headrests. Mercedes-Benz-embroidered floor mats in grey to match the carpets are on offer, carpet also appears on the door cards in between the six speakers (with more on the dash and rear deck). The trunk houses a spare tire, M-B CD changer, fuse box and complete tool kit; it is clean, though we note bleach staining on the removable rug.
The 5.0 litre M119 V8 engine gets this car to speed in a hurry. Offering 315 HP (5600 RPM) from the factory, 0-60 jaunts could be had in 6.9 seconds, supported by 345 lb.-ft. of torque (3900 RPM). A rear- drive machine, the power goes to the wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. The 221,000 km it has travelled is not considered high for this powerplant. It is known in the home country as an autobahn eater, able to cruise at high speeds for hours on end. The car is photographed with the hood open both in service mode, keeping it safely away from technicians’ heads, and with conventional opening, the former also shows the excellent condition of the hood pad. Engine compartment remains clean and tidy, a sign of pride of ownership. Buyer estimates approximately $15,000 in service work over the past six years, he did not spare much in maintaining the car, many service records appear in the gallery. Notably, pads and rotors at all four corners were installed about 6,000 km ago. Undercarriage is good, showing some surface corrosion. When this car was sold by CCC in 2023, the then-seller produced a 2022 appraisal for $25,000 to our photographer, it is on hand in the gallery. As well, option codes are detailed in the gallery. Carfax is linked at “CCC Vital Info”; although there are three claims, most recently 16 years ago, none is as high as even $3,000.
This 1994 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe is available from the owner with two keys in Niagara-on-the-Lake, On.
