Rare 1986 Mercedes 190 E 2.3-16v on 2040-cars
Bonita Springs, Florida, United States
|
This is a great car that has it all! This 5-speed manual is nimble and fun to drive, yet seats 5 with excellent cargo space. A rare car with black leather Recaro seats, MOMO steering wheel and shifter, Cosworth 16-valve cylinder head with mechanical valve lifters, Getrag gearbox (dogleg), self-leveling adjustable height, now-famous multilink rear suspension and first year for catalytic converter. Just over 8,000 of these cars sold in 1985. Maintenance records to 1989; family-owned since 1998. This car has a few flaws for her nearly 30 years on the road, but is still in great shape. Everything works, including the a/c and cruise control. The hood looks like it was repainted at some point and there are a few minor dings in the car. The driver's seat leather is split at the seam but unnoticeable. There is a nick in the wood to the right of the shifter. This car is leisurely driven by a middle-aged gal. It's practically a sin to have some old chick driving this car. But, once upon a time it was owned by her big brother who knew and repaired Mercedes. He passed away a few years ago and the car was kept for sentimental reasons. Over the past 4 years or so, there were new tires, exhaust and exhaust manifold, ignition, clutch (slave and master cylinders), a/c condenser and wiring harness, plug wires, self-leveling rod, and a new dashboard. The timing chain was replaced. There are also some speaker or stereo wires running from the back seat into the trunk. I think my brother may have been hooking up a CD changer or something. I never removed the wires. Click here to learn more about this car.
My favorite things are ... the sunroof, the way the car zips around roundabouts and corners and the sheer comfort of driving this car. More questions? Call or text (239) 273-8945. Btw ... I can put you in touch with somebody for an original radio ... reasonably priced. |

Mercedes releases 6x6 G63 AMG specs and pics [w/video]
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Mercedes-Benz has finally dropped full details on its insane G63 AMG 6x6. The machine puts 544 horsepower to all six wheels thanks to a twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V8. A seven-speed gearbox shuttles power to the ground via three sets of portal axles, which helps give this machine a full 15.75 inches of ground clearance. By comparison, the standard G63 AMG sits with just 8.27 inches of ground clearance. The extra lift allows this 6x6 to ford nearly 40 inches of water and run massive 37-inch tires. All told, there are five differential locks on this thing, all controlled by a special "locking logic" that provides the best traction possible for any given situation.
The controls offer up three stages of locking, which we can only assume range from JKLOL to OMGWTF. Right now, AMG says this monstrosity is only a show vehicle, but we imagine it wouldn't take much to convince the team to whip up one of your very own. Check out our full gallery and the press release below for all the nitty gritty. While you're down there, you can also check out the video on the machine one more time.
Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept gets mobbed in China
Sat, 20 Apr 2013If the reception it received at the Shanghai Motor Show is any judge of marketplace acceptance, Mercedes-Benz has a hit on its hands in the form of the GLA Concept. And we can understand why - we're quickly becoming fans of Mercedes' recent styling language, as defined by new models like the CLA and this GLA Concept.
The big news on the exterior front are the headlamp clusters, which have frickin' laser beams attached to their foreheads embedded inside that are capable of projecting videos and images on a screen. Plus, a pair of video cameras are mounted on the roof that can be used to capture driving excitement or removed and taken with you. How cool is that? We just hope they have a substantial locking mechanism to prevent would-be thievery...
If the exterior is mostly ready for production, with a few of the more outlandish elements moved to the trash bin - like, for instance, laser-beam headlamps and removable action cams - the interior is a true custom job that screams concept loud and clear. There are all kinds of jewel-like finishes inside, along with transparent surfaces showing what looks like metal latticework underneath and some awfully thick looking leather with massive exterior stitching done by hand similar to what you'd find on a baseball glove.
YouTube's Super Bowl commercial buzz list dominated by automakers [w/videos]
Thu, 31 Jan 2013After Sunday's big game, YouTube will be the place to watch every commercial that you missed when you left your seat for an emergency guac refill or, as we say in Cleveland, took the Browns to the Super Bowl. That makes YouTube the nation's water cooler on Monday, and it's got some preliminary stats to share in the lead up to kickoff.
As you know, Super Bowl advertisers, particularly automakers, like to endlessly tease their big budget commercials in the weeks before the game, many times revealing them outright days in advance. Because of this, YouTube can tell us which commercials have been viewed the most so far, and their top five list is all automakers.
Kaley Cuoco appears to have been a good investment for Toyota, as her ad for the RAV4 has garnered the most YouTube views - six million and counting - among Super Bowl commercials so far. Second place goes to Mercedes-Benz, though not its actual Super Bowl commercial, but rather the teaser for it. You know, the one with Kate Upton and the car washing, which is up to 5.6 million views. Third place is Audi's Prom commercial (3.3M views), fourth goes to Volkswagen's slightly controversial Get In, Get Happy ad (3.3M views), and the fifth and final spot is bookended by the teaser video for Kaley Cuoco's commercial (3.2M views). You can watch all five in order below.
