Car collector comedian Jerry Seinfeld ordered this Mercedes-Benz 500E from new and reportedly kept it for nearly 25 years in a climate-controlled garage, without driving it much. That is why the car has roughly 2,300 miles on the clock in 2026. And that must be one of the reasons why it sold for a record-breaking price.

  

$357,000 for a car expected to fetch anywhere between $180,000 and $240,000. The bidding for the 1992 Mercedes-Benz 500E W124 went sky-high and stopped at over $100,000 from the most optimistic prediction. This 1992 Mercedes-Benz 500E finished in Brilliant Silver checks all the right boxes, but nobody expected it to break records and do it with a bang.
