1995 Mercedes-Benz E320 / E36 AMG Wagon

Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this one-of-a-kind 1995 Mercedes-Benz E320 Estate. What do you do when you lust after the rare AMG E36 Sports Estate that was never available in the US, and is only now becoming eligible for import? And you can't find one anyway because AMG only produced 170 examples? You build one.

Initially built in 2015 by an Atlanta real estate developer and Mercedes enthusiast, we brokered the sale of this car to its current owner, Atlanta-based chef and television host Alton Brown, in 2018. Mr. Brown has added 8,000 miles during this ownership and we estimate total mileage on the build to be around 15k.

The builder of this AMG E36 Martini Racing tribute wagon started with a clean 1995 example of the venerable W124 E320. A reputable Atlanta shop oversaw the mechanical aspects, which included sourcing an engine from a 95k mile C36 -- which was disassembled, received a top-end rebuild and reseal and was installed along with a rebuilt automatic transmission. The differential was changed to a shorter gear ratio. Virtually all of the suspension was renewed which included Koni Adjustables up front, new SLS in the rear, H&R sport springs all around, new bushings, new steering components and more. Brakes were refreshed and the entire cooling system was replaced at the time of the build. The 17-inch AMG-style wheels are wearing tires with 2018 date codes and plenty of tread remaining. Receipts total over $37,000 for the mechanical portion of the build alone.

Cosmetically this wagon shows to a good driver standard -- the vinyl graphics are removable should the new owner choose to have a more sedate estate. The interior is attractive with renewed seat padding and a refinished 500E steering wheel complementing an otherwise very clean and original space. Nice dash, wood and seat upholstery with the only noticeable wear on the center console arm rest. No expense was spared (nearly $3,000) on a high-end yet stealth stereo install using Alpine, JL and Focal components by a reputable shop.

The W124 has always been among our favorite modern Mercedes-Benz chassis -- and this example is properly fast (our seat-of-the-pants impression is that it's faster than a 500E). If you are looking for a unique, do-it-all, performance wagon with a third row to haul the kids, classic Mercedes build quality and looks, and an approachable vibe that will have everyone admiring your ride at Cars and Coffee...then look no further. Service records, tools, spare, jack, rear seat head rests and original first aid kit are included.
