Supercharged 1989 Mercedes-Benz 300CE-24

Description

The 300CE-24 represented the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz’s C124 coupe range. Powered by the brand’s advanced 220-horsepower 3.0L 24-valve M104 inline-six, it combined elegant pillarless styling, long-distance comfort, and refined performance, establishing itself as one of the most desirable W124 derivatives.

Completed in October 1989 and originally ordered through Mercedes-Benz’s Schwäbisch Gmünd branch, this 300CE-24 was finished in Blue Black Metallic over a Black leather interior. It was equipped from the factory with options including power-adjustable front seats, electric sunroof, cruise control with an electrically adjustable steering column, rear power sunshade, heated front seats, anti-theft alarm system, and Automatic Slip Differential (ASD).

It’s powered by a 3.0L M104 24-valve inline-six, and backed by the factory five-speed automatic transmission. This example benefits from a period Albert supercharger conversion, along with an Albert intake adaptor and electronic ignition control unit, with a VDO boost gauge.

Additional upgrades include AMG white lowering springs, AMG-specification Bilstein dampers, 17” AMG Aero I wheels, and AMG exhaust tips, giving the pillarless coupe a sportier stance while preserving its understated appearance. The car was also updated with the final-series W124 hood featuring an integrated grille and matching headlights.

After spending its life in Germany, it was imported to the United States in 2022 and later became part of The Patina Collective. Tastefully modified with period-correct performance upgrades and desirable factory options, this supercharged 300CE-24 offers a compelling take on the timeless C124 coupe.

This 1989 Mercedes-Benz 300CE-24 is now offered by a Broad Arrow Specialist with older German registration and import documents, owner’s manuals, a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean Florida title in the current owner's name.
