@aksharamin Congrats, you will be very happy! I will work on giving the car a once over cleaning this weekend for any dust and what not from winter storage.1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

@aircooledfotoI do not but you should be able to get a set for <$40 on eBay that would be indistinguishable from that factory ones.1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

@UnicornCollecterI believe in 2000 there were 25 that made it to NA.1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

I will be grabbing lunch shortly but will be monitoring for any last minute comments/questions that need addressing.1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

I will be around to take additional pictures (if needed) or show the car to anyone local during the week (Tues, Weds, Thurs).1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

@KwoodwoI took some new pictures of the headliner without flash and interior lights off hopefully that shows better to the actual condition. I also got paint readings and everything came in between 3.6-5mils. The booklet that came with it says it's what factory paint should be. Pictures should be up shortly.1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

@KwoodwoThe car does not appear to be smoked in, no smell of it. The yellowish tint appears to simply be just the flash on my cell phone camera (and likely combined with the interior lights). The headliner was replaced by the previous owner. I will work on seeing if I can get a paint meter.1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

@butteruup82 for the 5/2013 accident hopefully @Alec_Lefteroff can elaborate as I am not aware of those details but for the the 4/2019 accident that shows: Owner rear ended someone at ~7mph and had a new OEM bumper and OEM grille fitted and AC condenser replaced.1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

@Alec_Lefteroffcorrect, these would be presumably the H&R springs you installed. I bought it this way and the two owners between us did 13k miles on them.1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

If anyone needs further pictures I am happy to take some more or if you are local and want to take a peek at it I am around Saturday afternoon as well as Sunday. Seems like on the underside of the passenger doors (front/rear) there is what I assume to be old glue from the door panels.1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

@ArmenianI will grab pictures of the seats and bottom of the doors, didn't think of that. I didn't drive in New England (was in storage) but the car did spend time in Illinois from 2009-2018 (93k-112k miles).1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

I will be heading to my storage unit to take some underside photos or at least best I can with a jack :) if anyone has any other requests or would like different angles, post up some what you'd want to see.
