I am putting my 1987 Mercedes Benz 190e 2.3-16 up for sale. The car has 148,688 miles on it and a clean title. Although since the car is my daily driver, milage will slowly creep up. I have a lot to say about this car and I want to be a through and honest as possible in the listing so I will start from the beginning.

-THE HISTORY-
Here is an excellent article giving a background about the car's DTM history and e30 m3 rival. Mercedes manufactured almost 2,000,000 W201s (190e/190d) of which 1.4% were 16 valve variants. 2,000 190e 2.3-16s were imported to the United States for the 1986/1987 model years, of which about 800 had the dogleg 5speed transmission like mine.

The Motortrend article says "EXPECT TO PAY:
Concours-ready, $19,900; solid driver, $16,300; tired runner, $7200 (Source: Hagerty Price Guide)"

-MY CAR BEFORE MY OWNERSHIP-
My car was purchased in Idaho in February 1987 after being manufactured in Germany in September 1986. It spent most of its life in California. Around 2005 it moved to Indiana. I suspect around this time it was taken off the road due to failing emissions although I am not 100% sure. About 4 years ago the person I purchased the car from bought the car in Chicago. It was not running but stored inside on jack stands. He had the car for around 3 years stored inside on jack stands. He took care of the car but was unable to get it running.

-MY CAR DURING MY OWNERSHIP-
I purchased my car on November 14, 2012 with the intent to fully restore it. I immediately tore into the engine and did the following work.

-Replaced the OVP relay
-Replaced all the fuel injectors
-Replaced the fuel line from the fuel distributor to the fourth cylinder
-Tested virtually all electrical components
-Replaced the airflow meter assembly
-Replaced the fuel distributor
-Replaced the EHA valve
-Replaced all vacuum lines
-All new injector seals
-Opened up the valve cover,
-New timing chain
-New timing chain hydraulic tensioned.
-New timing chain guide rails
-Brought the car into a Bosch/Mercedes specialist to check my work
-Tuned the Air/Fuel ratio
-Checked over my work and everything is up to standard.
-
-Got the car running in May-
-
-New shift linkage bushings
-Replaced the AC Compressor
-fixed residuale vacuum leaks
-Replaced the speakers. I kept the stock head unit for originality but out of the factory it was a terrible system. The new speakers are Alpines. They fit under the speaker covers in the dash but not on the rear deck. While they look good on the rear deck I have the original speakers and speaker covers if you don't like them.
-
-Extra Parts-
-
-Extra intake manifold
-3 or 4 extra fuel distributors
-Extra fuel injectors and fuel lines
-2 extra airflow meter assemblies
-New rear window motors
-Headlight wipers and motors. I removed them because I really dislike the way they look but they worked when they were on.

-THE FLAWS-
-The front spoiler has a hairline crack as pictured
-The front dash has a crack. Fortunately the crack goes right down the center of the car and almost looks like it is supposed to be there. Point is the dash is cracked in the best way possible. There is also a small crack by the right speaker.
-The rear windows do not work. They used to but stopped suddenly back in December. I have new motors that work but haven't installed them.
-The passenger power seat doesn't always move forwards and back. The other functions do (up/down, headrest up/down, tilt forward and back). It's only a connection issue but I just haven't opened the switch up to repair it.
-Sometimes the idle control valve gets stuck and it idles at 1500 as opposed to 1000. A throttle blip always fixes the issue and idle returns back to 1000. I might get around to fixing that this weekend but it's honestly a minor issue.
-There is a dime sized V shaped tear in the driver's seat. It is repaired and barley noticeable but it is there and pictured.
-There is a 1 inch by 1/8 of an inch on the hood where the clear coat is gone. Again pictured. You have to really look to see it.

-I have highlighted all of the flaws I can honestly think of with the car. This way there are no surprises for you and you know exactly the car you are coming to see. It is not a garage queen with 10,000 miles on it but this car was made to be driven, was driven, and is a very good example of this car.

-THE GOOD-
-Despite not being on the road for a few years, this car was always well taken car of. The interior is immaculate, the exterior is very, very good. There is absolutely NO RUST on this car's chassis or body. It was not left outside to rot, it was not forgotten of, it was not thrown together by hack mechanics. The title is CLEAN and in hand.
-The car drives like it was just driven out of the factory. The engine is great and pulls up through the rpm range. It hasn't ever overheated or shown any issues whatsoever since I got it running (Once had it up to 143 mph without incident...)
-The Getrag 5speed dogleg gearbox shift smooth and properly.
-The Limited Slip differential works.
-The Hydraulic Self Leveling Rear suspension works.
-The Brakes and Suspension are in good shape.
-Steering is tight.
-Chassis is still extremely stiff.
-Original wheels and full size spare
-Tires have good tread
-Cosworth exhaust note still sounds amazing
-Original first aid kit is included and the original seal is still not broken!

-The car really drives like new. Again this is not a garage queen, it is a driver's car.

-PURCHASING AND SHIPPING-

Next Mercedes S-Class stretching into this 600 Pullman limo

Fri, 15 Mar 2013

To the concern of nobody in particular, Mercedes-Benz will not be re-upping its Maybach line of ultra-luxury limousines. No, instead the German automaker will be stretching its already roomy S-Class, to make this upcoming 600 Pullman version of the decked-out beast.
The car in our new gallery of spy shots is sporting beefy B-pillars and a massive set of rear doors that should allow perfectly graceful ingress and egress from what is likely to be a palatial rear space. (In one photo we can even see a long-wheelbase S-Class in line with the new Pullman, handily exhibiting the size of the new variant.) The exterior modifications are otherwise obscured, though we can guess at revised front and rear fascia and lighting elements, based on both end being heavily taped for these test runs.
It's a good bet that the Pullman will make use of M-B's twin-turbocharged V12 engine, though sources indicate that a hybrid version might eventually be in the offing, as well.

New Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe spied in revealing state of dress

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

During a product briefing earlier this year, Mercedes-Benz told us that 2013 would be the "year of the S-Class." Makes sense, too, since the flagship Mercedes is so very close to finally showing its production-ready face. But the high-tech saloon isn't the only S-Class to talk about this year - quite the contrary. Seen here in decidedly revealing camouflage, the new S-Class Coupe will be joining its four-door compadre in the not-too-distant future, as well.
When it launches, the S-Class Coupe will officially do away with the CL-Class nomenclature. This doesn't come as a huge shock. After all, when the new E-Class coupe and convertible were launched, it officially marked the end of the long-running CLK-Class designation.
Thanks to the interesting camouflage seen here, we have a very good glimpse at how the S-Class Coupe will look when all of the molding and swirly paper are peeled off. Rakish body lines pulled from the CLS-Class meet a much more dynamic front fascia. Out back, there are horizontal taillamps rather than the vertical units used on the current car, and the whole package seems very svelte. Our spy photographer even posits that this will be "the best-looking car from Mercedes-Benz in ages."

2024 Mercedes-Maybach EQS 680 SUV tops $180,000

Tue, Oct 24 2023

The 2024 Mercedes-Maybach EQS 680 SUV is staking claim to the "next era of driving pleasure," but that pleasure will come at a steep price. The company officially announced Wednesday that the super-lux, battery-electric SUV starts at $181,050 (assuming the $1,150 destination fee doesn't increase for 2024) — $50,000 more than the standard Mercedes-Benz EQS 580. And you can order one starting today.Â While U.S. figures are still partially up in the air, we do have some preliminary specs. To go with its 649-horsepower output, the EQS 680 SUV was rated at 600 km of total range on the WLTP cycle, which works out to about 373 miles. While Mercedes-Benz doesn't have EPA figures to offer, the EQS 580 is rated at approximately 340 miles with the same pack and a very similar (613 km) WLTP-certified range. 0-60 comes in just 4.1 seconds on the way to a top speed of 130 MPH. Charging the EQS 680 SUV back up from 0% will take a bit longer Â— nearly 13 hours on a Level II AC charger Â— but DC fast charging (10-80%) takes just 31 minutes at its max throughput rate of 200 kW.Â The Mercedes-Maybach EQS 680 SUV is available with five different two-tone color combinations. All of the two-tone options will feature the lighter color on the bottom half of the SUV, since the darker tone up top better accentuates the vehicleÂ’s aerodynamics. Maybach-specific design details include vertical metal-look lines in the EQSÂ’ faux grille and a Mercedes-Benz star ornament on the hood.Â ThereÂ’s a Maybach logo on the D-pillar and the taillights have a unique running light pattern. Mercedes-Benz says 21-inch wheels are standard for now; larger 22-inch wheels, as well as a sixth two-tone paint option, will come later. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.
