The 1993 Mercedes-Benz 300CE Cabriolet represents the final year of the iconic A124 Cabriolet before the model transitioned to the E-Class nameplate. Hand-built to Mercedes-Benz’s highest standards, the 300CE embodies the marque’s reputation for durability, elegance, and engineering excellence. With only 766 examples imported into the U.S. in 1993, this model is among the rarest and most collectible variants of the revered W124 series.
This particular car, finished in classic 040 Black over Grey leather with a factory dark blue convertible top, exemplifies the timeless design and craftsmanship of the era. With just 31,325 documented miles, California provenance, and a comprehensive service history, it is one of the finest surviving examples of its kind.
