History In 1990, Mercedes decided to develop a high-performance version of their successful 300E model which debuted in 1986.
Porsche was contracted to engineer the modifications necessary to transform an ordinary 300E into a very special 500E.
However, the extensive modifications to the floor and external sheet metal meant the 500E could not easily be built on the normal assembly line at the busy Mercedes Sindelfingen plant.
So, Mercedes called upon Porsche to perform assembly of the 500E at Porsche's Rossle-Bau plant in Zuffenhausen.
The contract called for 8 to 12 500E's per day, 2400 per year, built to the highest quality.
