Vehicle Detail

Rare 1987 Mercedes 190e 2.3L -16v with 88k miles. Been stored since 2003, recently registered and up to date tags, 5 speed dog leg transmission, own a very rare piece of automotive history with a racing legacy. Mercedes Benz only imported 2,200 of these between 1986-87 for US customers. This car sat in a garage for 10 years prior to me purchasing it. Why buy an all original car when you can get a car with all new bushings, control arms etc..Needless to say, it is one of a kind, and truly fun to drive, and not many in this good of condition are still on the road.Recenty replaced engine mounts and transmission mount, new rear bushings,new rear adjustable control arms (all from HedgeHog motorsports - $1700 value). Lowered on bilstein shocks, H&R Springs, drilled rotors, new rear axles, rebuilt rear differential, 16" mercedes SL rims with brand new Toyo Proxes Tires, new kenwood USB stereo, Euro headlights.. I have put a lot of work into the car since owning it. All the hard work has been done. I have receipts covering its 27 year history. All numbers match. Clean CA title, straight body, all gauges work with exception of lap timer which is common. Interior in good condition with Mercedes floor mats, car cover, Drives and shifts good. Have tons of extra parts including 500e sway bars and H&R swaybars, original headlights, extra set of rims and more. Magnaflow exhaust, no cats. I have a seperate bolt on exhaust system that will let make it pass smog. Will not pass smog legally. Registration good till 2014, smog check good for 2 years. These cars are starting to appreciate in value just as when the e30 M3's did a few years back. This will eventually be a $20-$30k car if you were to simply sit on it. Cons: Dash cracked, Odometer stopped working at 88k miles. Paint is patina in some areas, sunroof doesnt open, lap timer doesnt work, this is a 70/100 car, The AC is non operational at this time, antenna doesnt go up and down. Put some work into the interior and new paint and you will have a 100/100 car. Shipping is buyers responsibility, I am willing to hold on to the vehicle for free at a safe place until it is picked up or arranged for shipment, if i have to store the vehicle for a while I will be more glad to do so for free but it must be paid for in full first. I will only accept cash in hand, Money orders, Bank cashiers checks. No personal checks will be accepted I am sorry. Make an offer today through ebay or email me your offers, I will not respond to scam messages and emails and I will report you so don't bother. I do not need help to sell the car either. Deposit is non refundable
