Performance Meters
I just purchased a new AP22 from Race-Technology.com
Have not had much time to play with it but from what I have seen it is very impressive. Has anyone else had experience with it? What kind of results are they seeing with it? 0-60? HP peaks 0-1/4 mi? etc. I hope to spend more time with it next weekend. Thanks for the input PS Does anyone have the actual weight of a 92 500E? Specs I have seen show something around 3900 lbs. but is this a dry weight or a loaded weight or what?

1992 500E Weight
Dwight,
Per the 4/92 Automobile Magazine, a 1992 500E weighed 3855 pounds. I assume this number came from the M-B press kit of the time, and probably assumes a full tank of gas, but no passengers. Hope this helps, Kirk 1992 500E Pearl black/gray 53k miles |

A copy of which sits on my desk "LIKE A DRUG"
Thanks for the response. I was not sure if it included all the fluids such as full tank of gas or whether that was a shipping weight or one of MB's test weights (1/2 tank + 2 passengers). Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine. Dwight

Dwight,
I, too, have a copy of "Like A Drug" on my desk. I must have read that article 20 times when it first came out in 1992, and I still read through it from time to time. It is solely responsible for my buying my car; I knew back in '92 that I must have a 500E, and 8 years and 8 months later, my car was flatbedded to my home. Ah, the miracle of depreciation!

Kirk, I too drooled over these cars for some time, but only actually spent 2 years looking. Then I found it in a parking lot down the street from my house. The rest, as they say, is history.
Keep motoring Dwight If you ever get this way look me up.
