    The bumpers and skirts are worth pulling if they're in good shape. The wheels aren't, but pull the centercaps at least. Is it actually a 16v, or is it just a 190 with some add ons? It doesn't have the flares or side pods of a cosworth. If its a real one, also grab the head, seats and dogleg (if it has one).

      I ran the VIN through a free vin checker and it says its a 2.3 8v. Not 100% sure what the whine is though. (Not too familiar with these cars). It's an auto unfortunately. The interior is mint though. They're like a darker brown leather that are similar to e30 comfort seats, not sure if they are worth anything.

          Just a regular 190 with add ons then. Still pull the bumpers and skirts at least

            that does not look like a 190e 16v 2.3L cosworth. although both are the same 190e model, I don't see the OE side rocker panel/bodykit of the 16v. This looks like an AMG 190e. Also US models came in Bronzit Beige and Charcol only if I remember correctly. OP you could get some serious $ for these parts on MB forums.

                I have already pulled the steering wheel and hub and the rear spoiler. Looks like I'll be going back to pull the skirts and rear valance. Front of the car is smashed. Just need to find buyers for the parts then haha! Someone has already offered me around $150 for the steering wheel.....

                  Wow. If you feel like going back again, the side skirts, bumper, and even the badge are all worth good money. Check out the interior and engine too. There could be all kinds of things there worth some serious bucks.

                    The interior is in decent shape. No rips on seats as far as I could tell.

                      Went to a different yard today that had about 6 e36's. Pulled a couple mint roundels and a complete owners manual booklet with all manuals and 2 glovebox flashlights.




                      Also saw some coilovers on a civic but couldn't make out what brand they were.
