1984 Mercedes 190E 2.3
Hello! new member What do i have? Red. black leather and 5sp transmission!

Hey there fellow members. I just picked up a 190e off of craigslist here in montana. Like the title says. Its red. With black leather interior. A 5 speed. I'm in the process of cleaning the interior. Some hillbilly never cleaned it. ill post pics later.

To tell you a little about my self. I started off with rx7's. had a 300whp turbo 2. boosted a Honda Accord. Autocrossed a solid integra GSR. Beat the living hell out of an ae86. I drive the mountain roads here in The Rockies. (I love the touge) I just sold My URS4 Audi with RS2 upgrades. Ive been daily driving an 04 Disco 2 but its horrid with MPG's. That's why I picked up this little 190E
I got 30mpg's on the way back from Idaho. The car didn't skip a beat. It's simply amazing... I havn't driven a car like this since my AE86 that is the most fun I've had in any car. Now I feel I just found the euro version of that car. Toe heel was so natural It left me speechless. The rear sway when you lift off throttle on corner entry left me speechless. Rolling on the throttle after the apex. Even before the apex was thrilling. This 190 is simply amazing.
I feel like I have something special again.

does anybody know what kind of options from the factory came on these cars
like trim packages?

I usually don't join a forum just because I picked up a specific car. but.... This 190E left me speechless. for 1984 this is pretty gangster. As well as balanced

FEATURES OF THE CAR (RUBY)
5 SPEED
RED
BLACK LEATHER INTERIOR
SUNROOF
CRUISE CONTROL
ELECTRIC WINDOW
POWER ANTENNA
AC
(POSSIBLY AN LSD?) IS THIS A STANDARD OPTION?
A VERY NICE HEADLINER.

thanks for reading my rant bro's !

Sounds like it may be a Sportline edition? (if so i'm very jealous so there's that). Sounds pretty sick. I just got back into the MB family with an 87 190e that needs a lot of work.
