Anyone Selling a Clean C43 w/55 Swap?
Hi Folks,

Before I bite the bullet and buy a more expensive (and bigger) W211 E55. Does anyone have a clean C43? Prefer one with a swap but if not I'm also interested in a stock one. Let me know what ya got!


Thanks

Might I inquire as to what made you want to hunt one down? I'm curious if the notoriety and collectible nature of the cars is becoming well known...

To be honest, I was just browsing youtube and saw the One Take with Matt Farrah. I'm looking for a sedan that I can drive daily and after more research this looks like a very good and unique candidate.

I'm still strongly considering another W211 E55 but I've always felt it was a bit to big for me and I actually slighly prefer the looks of the W202.

The 5.4 w202 with some light mods will give the w211 e55 a very good run for its money

Once the E55 hits third gear it's a wrap for the W202. Ask me how I know
