2007 R320 CDI, 2010 FJ Cruiser, CTS-V
My new 1995 C36 AMG

Purchased this today.

Overall, body in great condition, no rust, original MB VIN stickers, clean CarFax.

Good maintenance history including head gasket, engine wiring harness, control arms, new Bilstein Sport shocks, and springs (I think H&R but not sure now).

Interior is very clean except I need a new set of mats. Wondering what is the best place to order a set of AMG mats.

I do have that rattle/marbles/diesel like sound coming from the front of the engine that I need to take a look at.

Located in SF Bay Area, looking forward to meeting other W202 C36/C43 owners.

Much less than Blue Book trade-in on 1995 C36. It had sat at this dealer since November.

Hopefully, I will have good luck with it.

Very nice!! There's just something about the look of C36 and C43 that doesn't age...I'm not sure what it is, but it looks better than many of the designs out there today. I hope my W203 will age as gracefully in years to come....
Congratulations!

lack of mud flaps leaves a streak of "sandblasted" lines on the fender when travelling in winter, but yeah, nice trip
