About this car
This car is a REPLICA — a kit car built in the style of a 1936 Mercedes-Benz 500K, powered by a Ford V6 engine. It is not a genuine Mercedes-Benz 500K, and its $27,500 price reflects that: a real 500K is a seven-figure car. Offered by Exotic Car Trader in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Judge it as a replica — on the quality of its construction, its title and registration status, and how it drives — not as a collectible Mercedes.
What the photos show
- This is a replica, and the photos confirm it: a modern V8 with a chrome air cleaner sits under the hood, so price it as a kit car, never as a real 500K
- Two-tone black and maroon paint is deep and glossy with mirror reflections, no paint work needed
- Chrome grille, horns, lights and external exhaust pipes shine bright, no chrome spend needed
- Maroon soft top fits tight with a clear rear window, no top spend needed
- Maroon leather seats look clean and glossy with no tears, no need to reupholster
- Wood dash with modern VDO gauges reads 12,096 and the wood-rim wheel looks fresh, no dash spend needed
- Engine bay is tidy for a replica build, though the wiring is home-grade, budget a tidy-up if you show it
- Wire wheels with wide whitewall tires look fresh, no tire spend right away
- The gallery tail is padded with repeated close-ups of the fenders, hood pipes and fuel cap, pretty but they add no new condition info
- No underside photo is shown in the sampled photos, can't judge the replica chassis underneath
Money: At $27,500 you are buying looks and open-top fun as a replica, and the glossy paint and clean trim support that money, as long as no one pays real-500K logic for it.
