@proturner1 nice info. Any idea how the ride of this compares to an early CL63? I’m curious about how comfy of a ride this would be—my ABC cars are very nice, my non-abc cars not so nice!
@jnice6540 do all of the functions and electronics work? Any weird interior smells (musty, smoke, perfume, etc.)? Any vibration at highway speeds?
Wow! Great bidding
Too bad it was exported. Seems like the fees for doing that — and shipping / importing it somewhere else — will exceed the cars value.
@xkuisit was this up for sale recently? Seems like I saw it somewhere in the last year…
Make the Patina Collective work for this one boys.
Curious about the importing process (to the USA)? If any members here can chime in, I'd appreciate it. Doing my own research, it seems there can be some potential holds ups with EPA-certification issues and associated fees, and it doesn't seem like this vehicle is old enough to be exempt from this level of import scrutiny.
@Afifj per the link you posted, it looks like this site’s policy is that shipping is the buyers responsibility. If you have any experience in the matter, can you give us an idea of what’s all required to ship to the US from Kuwait? Beautiful restoration by the way.
Great car. A few questions for you: How does this one drive? You’ve had driving videos of other vehicles, but not this one. Does it smell like anything off putting inside? Any rattles, creaks, or strange sounds while driving from the engine or body/ interior? Thanks.
@Boatymcboatface ROW air boxes like this might get you 10hp more.
the M275 cold start is a wonderful thing.
Seems like a good deal especially compared to this: https://thembmarket.com/1988-mercedes-benz-6-0-amg-hammer-coupe
I’d guess reserve was at least $40k, and rightfully so
All potential bidders should read this entire thread: https://www.500eboard.co/forums/threads/1994-e500-limited-sapphire-black-gray-16kkm-tmu-mbm-auction-scottsdale-az.18025/#post-259559
I mean, this is pretty much what it’s worth, right? Don’t understand reserves …
@drosemont1 to confirm, this is only 49-state compliant and therefor NOT able to be registered in California, correct?
Definitely worth more than the high bid, especially with that warranty.
Got it. Thanks for clarifying how that works for this tune. I’ve had to remove tunes WITHOUT a handheld and it’s rough!
Nice car. The Tune on the ECU won’t pass a “normal” (ie legal) smog in CA tho.
@Dcarz and receipts per my original post?
Do you have any maintenance records or receipts to share? Especially ones that would indicate the vehicle has been properly maintained in its first 20 years or so.
