MBFahrer's Comments

Designo 2011 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG

MBFahrer said:

A little on the low end but it is 120k miles with a crash on the Carfax. Should have taken the offer from the cars and bids auction. 

2007 Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG Cabriolet RENNtech

MBFahrer said:

This is a great alternative since the CLK63 BS cars are so overpriced these days. Somebody is going to get on heck of car for not much money! These 6.2's are one of the sweetest engines Mercedes ever made. Love it! 

31k-Mile 2012 Mercedes-Benz S600

MBFahrer said:

This is going to bring all the money! What a gorgeous spec! Wow!! Outstanding condition too from the looks of it! 

Custom Forged 2-Piece 17" Aero III-style Wheels

MBFahrer said:

How do these differ from genuine Aero III's for W126? 

1984 Mercedes-Benz 500SEL 5.4 AMG

MBFahrer said:

@HamgburglarI don't think that's the same paint colour? 

1984 Mercedes-Benz 500SEL 5.4 AMG

MBFahrer said:

Good heavens. $75k and it just got listed. Thank goodness it's a LWB. If it was a SWB I'd need to buy it. 

2020 Mercedes-AMG A35 Hatchback

MBFahrer said:

@GASMotorcarsthank you for taking the time to reply. It definitely is not the car for me. Zero chance of getting this past emissions and registering it where I live in Colorado. It's a shame that mercedes did not sell there here. They're so much better looking than the gla/cla that we got. Much more fun and a better alternative to a GTi/golf t. Good luck with the sale and to the next owner!

2020 Mercedes-AMG A35 Hatchback

MBFahrer said:

No info on what was done to federalize this vehicle? You can't just "import" something like this and expect to register and drive it. That's not how it works in the US unless you have a sloppy DMV. What was changed in the emissions system? Bumper beams, door bars, installed? Front and rear lighting changed to US spec? I don't see any reflectors. There are so many red flags with this car. IIRR, this car has been floating around for quite some time now. Very cool, too risky though. 

Euro 1985 Mercedes-Benz 500SEL AMG Tribute

The rest of the photos are missing

1995 Mercedes-Benz E36 AMG Cabriolet 6.0 BRABUS

MBFahrer said:

@refusednameAMG did put an M119 into an A124 for Brunei. So never say never. 

New Elbe Engineering Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) Kit

MBFahrer said:

Wow, close to retail and RNM? What on earth? I ordered mine from Elbe this afternoon! Nice to support small businesses guys. 

New Elbe Engineering Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) Kit

MBFahrer said:

Y'all can have this. I'm going to buy one directly from Elbe. There is no need to worry about tuning. I spoke with Elbe Engineering over the weekend. He can email any engine tune file you will be needing. This kit is plug and play. 

1993 Mercedes-Benz 500SEC 6.0 AMG

MBFahrer said:

Shouldn't this car have headlight wipers?? 

2010 Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG 10th Anniversary Edition

MBFahrer said:

Can you confirm the color? The window stickers shows Arctic White not Cirrus. 

1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9

MBFahrer said:

"individually adjustable rear view mirrors" .... what? As opposed to synchronised rear view mirrors? 

Weistec 2010 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG P30

MBFahrer said:

@TheLavskiThat's great thank you! Do you know roughly what mileage is on all the mods? 

Weistec 2010 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG P30

MBFahrer said:

Do you have dyno sheets? How did you come up with the 800hp figure? Gorgeous car!! TIA!

1990 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II

MBFahrer said:

Very cool! Looks like a great starting point for a mild restoration to get it back up driving (and looking) 100%. 

8k-Mile 1996 Mercedes-Benz E50 AMG

MBFahrer said:

Wow what a time capsule! 

NO RESERVE: Staggered 2-Piece 18" BRABUS Monoblock V Wheels w/Tires

MBFahrer said:

I hope you put rags between that nice Ferrari paint and those tires when you took that photo! Yikes! 

1992 Mercedes-Benz 500SL 6.0 AMG

MBFahrer said:

This is a stunning spec SL and deserves all the money. Brunei cars are usually just epic. Waiting for the day where one of the station wagon 7.3L W140 conversions comes up for sale. 

2005 Mercedes-Benz S600 Sport w/51k Miles

MBFahrer said:

Gorgeous car! Spitting image of our S65. Such a classy color combo. GLWS! 

Modified 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SEC

MBFahrer said:

Very nice build! love the white on blue. The quilting pattern is a bit much for me personally. The level of craftsmanship that went in to this build is next level. Gorgeous car! Sounds great in the videos too! GLWS! 

11k-Mile 2007 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG

MBFahrer said:

@GhailanNo it does not meet US import requirements

M113-Powered 1991 Mercedes-Benz 420SEC

MBFahrer said:

Taurus tires eh? Why put cheap junk tires on a car that deserves so much more? 

11k-Mile 2007 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG

MBFahrer said:

@tauchapter1981You don't. It's too new to be imported unfortunately.

Supercharged 1990 Merecdes-Benz 560SEC Koenig Specials

MBFahrer said:

@AE327AMG cars have provenance, heritage, brand recognition, and a widespread following. This, while an incredible car, is just a modded W126 at the end of the day. Like trying to compare a 360 to an Enzo. Two different things. 

Supercharged 1990 Merecdes-Benz 560SEC Koenig Specials

MBFahrer said:

@TonsOfGasAgreed. 

1989 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5 'Evolution I' w/49K Original Miles

MBFahrer said:

49k miles is low? 4,900 would be low. This is just not high (100k+). Nice presentation though. 

1997 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG

MBFahrer said:

@DW168 Yes. In fact, any other color than white and I would have been interested. 

1997 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG

MBFahrer said:

@Ronald1967It's not. They built around 100 of these

1997 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG

MBFahrer said:

Popcorn will be stale by the time this is over. $500 bids at a time. Good grief. 

1997 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG

MBFahrer said:

In what alternate universe? Last 30k mile S7X's that came up were both needing to be imported from overseas and were just under $200k. This makes no sense. 

1997 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG

MBFahrer said:

6 minutes left and $70k? This needs to nearly triple in price to make sense selling. 

1997 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG

MBFahrer said:

This car does have a phone. It's integrated into the infotainment system. 

1997 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG

MBFahrer said:

@rbassousHarnesses can go bad even on these updated cars. We just rebuilt the harnesses on a 1997 S600. 90k miles. Texas history. Chances are, with miles this low, the harnesses are fine. They are rebuildable though, so not something to be scared of. 

1997 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG

MBFahrer said:

"four place multicontour seating package" What are you doing MB market? This is not a four-place seating car. This has a rear bench seat. Further down you mention that it has a folding rear center console. No, it does not have that either--it has a folding rear seat armrest. Two different things. This listing is a mess. 

1997 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG

MBFahrer said:

Registration has no bearing on what year a car is. This car claims to have been built in November of 1995. That makes this a 1996. Why is it listed as a 1997 MB Market? 

6k-Mile 1995 Mercedes-Benz SL600 AMG

MBFahrer said:

This should have sold. Not really an AMG car. Just a body kit and wheels. 6k miles is pretty low and it sounds well sorted from RT. Who cares that some kid took pictures in it. He didn't own it. 

Euro-Spec 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL

MBFahrer said:

Do all the accessories work--front lumbar, rear heated/power seats, etc? How is the suede interior to live with? Does it grab your clothes like the velour upholstery or is it easier to slide in and out? Are there any other areas of paint damage besides the scratch in the driver side rear quarter panel? Any interior odors? How does the engine run? Thanks!! 

Euro-Spec 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL

MBFahrer said:

@PerVennemoeThat's great, thank you!! 

Euro-Spec 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL

MBFahrer said:

How is the undercarriage? Any signs at all of rust/corrosion? Even on exhaust/suspension components? 

Euro-Spec 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL

MBFahrer said:

Wow, four place seating in a W126--that is so cool! 

M117 Tri-Y Headers for Mercedes-Benz W/C126

MBFahrer said:

@SwissBliss No offense taken! I have zero interest in aftermarket mods as they hold little to no value. 

M117 Tri-Y Headers for Mercedes-Benz W/C126

MBFahrer said:

@TheAMGKitNo, I am not interested in custom. AMG only. 

M117 Tri-Y Headers for Mercedes-Benz W/C126

MBFahrer said:

These are fantastic, but missing a lot. Do you have the downpipes, heat shields, exhaust brackets that are needed to fit these to a car? If not, are any of those pieces available from Mercedes? I have an 83 500se these headers would go on. 

2017 Mercedes-Benz G500 4×4²

MBFahrer said:

$50k with an hour left? Huh? 

17" AMG Aero I Monoblock Wheels

MBFahrer said:

Puts these at almost $3k shipped, which is a more than fair number. Should have sold. 

1992 Mercedez-Benz 300CE 3.4 AMG BRABUS Widebody

MBFahrer said:

@ccutler05A manual swap would be a great idea. 

One-Owner 1993 Mercedes-Benz 600SEC w/69k Miles

MBFahrer said:

I remember this car from ebay. Had a very high asking price for the miles and state of the undercarriage. Staying tuned... 

1992 Mercedez-Benz 300CE 3.4 AMG BRABUS Widebody

MBFahrer said:

So it's a Brabus car with an AMG motor? Or is it an AMG car with a Brabus bodykit? Or is it a mashup? Confusing presentation--hopefully not intentionally so. 

Barn Find: 1984 Mercedes-Benz 500SEC 5.4 AMG Widebody Project

MBFahrer said:

Perfect car for Curated to resurrect! Needs some big money spent on it to get it back up and working (and presentable), but well worth the investment. Can't see these ever depreciating. 

2008 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG 40th Anniversary Edition

MBFahrer said:

The rear bumper is repainted, and doesn't match the rest of the car. It also appears that the front bumper does not match the paint color perfectly either? 

1985 Mercedes-Benz 500SEC Koenig Specials

MBFahrer said:

What is that massive hunk of metal in picture #101 near the air intake tube? 

1990 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL AMG

MBFahrer said:

I wish the Patina Collective would just go away. I'll leave it at that. But yes the 5.4 was a pretty good deal. Imagine, a little over 10 years ago I paid $12k for my 2V SOHC 6L C126 AMG. Still have the car. God knows what it's worth now. 

5.4L M113-Swapped 1984 Mercedes-Benz 500SEC AMG Tribute

MBFahrer said:

I saw this car in person up in monterey last week and can attest to the overall quality/appearance of this car. Very well put together and looks great in person. Don't know what people are saying the headliner is falling on your head and some jibberish about the steering wheel leather being reupholstered over old leather. Ignore those comments. This is an excellent car and won't disappoint. 

Also, the concord? Not sure if serious... 

1990 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL AMG

MBFahrer said:

Sellers are delusional. The market has cooled off slightly in the last few weeks. Fine by me.  Also, second the comment about this not selling for more than the documented and genuine 5.4 W126 from RM last week. I was there and bidding on the silver 6L, but the price went crazy. The silver 4V 6L car was idling horribly. Sounded okay at higher RPMS, but who knows what that could cost to fix. I was honestly a little surprised at the black 5.4L result. It was a pretty clean car and low miles. 

1990 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL AMG

MBFahrer said:

Still kind of misrepresenting this car. This is a 560SEL that has a slew of AMG parts that were probably just purchased off ebay. Don't get me started on the mods. To liken this car to an original pre merger AMG is pretty blasphemous. This is a quality, MODIFIED, car. Not a true W126 AMG. 

1993 Mercedes-Benz 600SEC Koenig Specials

MBFahrer said:

180,000...dollars? Can't be...must be monopoly money. These bodykits are still available from Koenig last I heard. This car does not have an upgraded M120. Besides being relatively low miles there is nothing special about this car. The seller must be laughing all the way to the bank on this one. I'm lost for words. 

1995 Mercedes-Benz S600 AMG Coupe

MBFahrer said:

@germancars Comparing apples to oranges saying that the M119 harnesses are easy to source. I called MB Classic in Irvine as well as my local MB dealer trying to source a couple harnesses for two M120 W140's within the past couple of months. Both cars, uppper and lower harnesses are NLA. 

1995 Mercedes-Benz S600 AMG Coupe

MBFahrer said:

@gsxrActually, the updated insulation can eventually fail as well. I have a 1996 S600 that I've removed the harness from because the grounds and blower motor wiring insulation has failed. And I have a 1997 S600 that I've had to pull the harnesses from as well because the insulation is becoming brittle. I specifically looked for 1996+ W140's because of the pre-1996 soybean coated harnesses that do fail. The '96+ were not supposed to suffer from this issue. However, due to age and the sustained high engine bay temps from these M120 motors, even the updated wiring can fail. So, buyers beware. I found a couple of places that will rebuild wiring harnesses, so I am now looking at all years of M120 powered W140s. 

1995 Mercedes-Benz S600 AMG Coupe

MBFahrer said:

Seller: 

Have the wiring harnesses been replaced? The parts are NLA and the car will become undriveable if they have not been replaced. 

1995 Mercedes-Benz S600 AMG Coupe

MBFahrer said:

Seller: what is the state of the wiring harnesses? Have the engine bay harnesses been replaced? 

1995 Mercedes-Benz S600 AMG Coupe

MBFahrer said:

The wood and leather steering wheel was factory equipment on the S600's

1995 Mercedes-Benz S600 AMG Coupe

MBFahrer said:

ebay-specials center caps and non color matched wheels... 

1996 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG

MBFahrer said:

Why is the front suspension so low? Are the shocks shot? Replacement shocks are nearly impossible to source as they are AMG specific. Do you have a photo of the front passenger door sill? Is there any evidence of prior rear end damage?
