34: Mercedes-Benz 500E

If you wondering why we’ve included this entry on a list about unforgettable sports cars, hold on. The AMG Hammer is the car that most people remember when you think of a beefed-up E-Class Benz during the nineties, but there was another option. The Mercedes-Benz 500E was powered by a Porsche-derived 5.0 liter V-8, which delivered a serious amount of power. The 500E had an understated design, and you’d never know that this was an undercover sport sedan.

Because the car doesn’t have the AMG badging on it you can find a relatively unassuming model for a great price. The Mercedes-Benz 500E was the pinnacle of luxury sedans during this period in time. The ride was top-notch and the quality of the car makes it a stellar find to this day, which is why there is such a network of enthusiasts.
