I miss my old 280SE...



RIP.

thank you to the uninsured, unlicensed, underaged, and undocumented immigrant driver who killed it.:down:

Don't forget this icon, the 'bahn rocket that challenged BMW with 322 snortin' angry horsies, cranked out by a 5-liter V8 power station, handbuilt cooperatively by Mercedes and Porsche in the early '90's, with only approx 1,500 delivered to the US at over $80,000 each....

.... the Mercedes W124 500E/E500, also known as the ".036"

The classic muscle-sleeper formula:
- Big power? Check.
- Sport-tuned suspension? Check.
- Big brakes? Check.
- Recaro seating? Check.
- Flared fenders? Check.
- Aerodynamic body kit? Check.
- Exclusivity? Check.

Hell yeah, big daddy.

Thanks!
Yeah, I loved that car! Especially how no one would believe it was my car. My dad and I rescued it from the junkyard for sale lot with a stuck fuel pump. Soaked it in a tub of gas overnight to free it up, and the thing came to life. Became my daily driver for a few years until it got hit and crumpled the back up to the rear window frame. I still drove it a while after that until I accepted the fact it was beyond repair. :curse:

I want the benz they featured on top gear that they said every african dictator had for twenty years. It was a monster. Großer Mercedes:

I f'n love the W124, I'm thinking of buying a 300e as a DD and letting the 'vert sleep in the garage until summer. Only problem is, finding one with a manual transmission is a bitch.
