1985 Mercedes-Benz - 190E

Fahrzeugbeschreibung

1985 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3-16, finished in black with a black interior. This 190E is equipped with the desirable dogleg 5-speed manual transmission. This 190E is a gray-market car, meaning it was built to European specifications and imported to America when it was nearly new. It retains European-spec headlights, corner lights, and bumpers, but it has been federalized so its instrument cluster displays miles. Numerous aftermarket parts are installed on this 190E, including Strömung headers, a 2.5-inch exhaust, a lighter flywheel, Ground Control Road-Race coilovers, adjustable Koni dampers, and a Nardi wood-rimmed steering wheel. It's also fitted with a vented passenger-side fender from a turbodiesel model. The full list of modifications made to this car is below. The seller states he has maintained this 190E himself since buying it in 2013. He adds the brake pads, the radiator, the driveshaft flex joints, the sunroof guides, the spark plugs, the ignition wires, and the fuel pump are among the parts recently replaced.Called W201 internally, and colloquially known as the "Baby Benz," the Mercedes-Benz 190 arrived in the United States for the 1984 model year. It was the smallest and cheapest member of the company's line-up, but it nonetheless offered a wide selection of features and the comfort buyers expected from a Mercedes-Benz. 4- and 6-cylinder models were available until the 190 retired in 1993. It was replaced by the original C-Class.Launched in America for the 1986 model year, the 2.3-16 was a quicker, sportier evolution of the 190E that set several endurance records on the Nardo test track in Italy.Power for this 190E comes from a 2.3-liter 4-cylinder engine, which produces 185 horsepower and 173 lb-ft of torque. It spins the rear wheels via a dogleg 5-speed manual transmission and an aftermarket Wavetrac limited-slip differential.
