I just bought this car from the auction, I'm 99.9% sure it's not an AMG except for the badge someone stuck on it. I typed in the VIN and your post is the only thing that came up. It appears to be a standard 1995 S500. The engine is a regular 5.0l as far as I can tell. The price was right so we'll see if I got a driver or a parts machine. I'll post any updates when it arrives at my shop if there's anything interesting about it.
