BOUGHT ANOTHER CAR (190E)

Obv its not a maxima topic but i just bought a 1991 Mercedes Benz 190E 2.6 inline 6 automatic with 43K original miles!! lol. ($4,500) car is in mint condition inside and out. leather looks like no one sat in it and the trunk looks like its never been opened. under the hood is a little dirty but well get that cleaned up. maybe later on get some amg's or bbs's and slam it lol

so basically i just wanna get some opinions on this car from everyone (i know these cars will kick it to 300k miles) oh and also..im having some trouble finding a roof spoiler for this -_- or a cheap rear spoiler at that.

Man, on a serious note, that is a great find. I cannot believe what you just said. Your desciptions does sound MINT! Show me (us) pics. You have found yourself a gem!!! Keep it good man. I seriously wish I could buy something like that in that kind of mint condition. But usually only one per country.

You were telling the truth! That car is prestine. Man, let me borrow it. That car does look very clean. Can't believe the lights look so clean. No rust on the body too. Man and paint looks like new. Man, we need to talk!!!

Did you buy from an old couple? Or someone who kept it so well and decided to sell? Or is it some youngers that inherited it from their late parents and now just selling since they don't need it?

the guy is 45 yrs old. he bought it for his mother who drove it to the hair salon a couple of times and moved to washington. they only put 2k miles on it. the previous owner was an old lady that passed away and the car went to the dealer or whoever was responsible for it. so 2 owners..(old people) nicee lol i woulda liked a black exterior with beige interior better but cant complain

I vote turboing it on an auto trans would be better, youd lose less boost between shifts
