25-Years-Owned 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEC

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

The W126-generation Mercedes-Benz S-Class coupe represents the pinnacle of Mercedes luxury and engineering during the late 1980s and early 1990s. As the flagship two-door grand tourer, the 560SEC combined elegant pillarless styling with robust performance from the 5.5-liter M117 V8 engine. Renowned for its build quality and understated sophistication, the SEC remains a highly desirable classic among enthusiasts.

This 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEC is finished in Smoke Silver Metallic over Palomino leather and shows 106,900 miles on the odometer. The seller reports owning the car for over 25 years, adding only about 3,000 miles during that time. The seller reports the car retains its original character, with notable modifications limited to Eibach lowering springs and Zenith knock-off style wire wheels. The factory chrome wheels and springs accompany the sale.

This longtime-owned 560SEC is now offered at no reserve with a clean CARFAX history report, its window sticker, service records beginning in 1996, factory literature, and a clean California title in the seller’s name.
