Amazing kowalsky!
but even if the car doesn't have that particular feature because it is an early version, it's not an issue, isn't it?
do you guys know other sites where cars like this ones are being sold??

I can't say for sure world wide, but in the USA pretty sure they all had it. Once the cars have abs and electric throttle like with the m104 motor, they pretty much all had it. Some had a button with tire chains instead of ASR off.

The C36 was the first modified Mercedes/AMG. They were all C280's that were sent to AMG and modified. The C43 on the other hand, was the first ground up build by AMG. They did not start out as C280's. I still have the Motor Trend magazine, May 1995 issue with the unveiling of the C36. I'll post the write up shortly.

Hello!! Amazing write up there!!! I knew the C36 was a modified C280 and the C43 was a hole new car actually...
I don´t know if this means that there are actual structural differences between them with actual different parts fitted in or it is just a matter of a different assembly plant

Hey Mickey! how are you?? Thanks very much!!! Let´s see what i end up getting!!
As for the color of the car, i don´t really mind... i prefer an original color than a repainted in a different tone car for sure... I actually prefer an original car rather than a modified one even if the mods improves its performance... I have something with originality :P

Welcome! I see your love for the c36, Its a great car and looks better than the c43 in some ways, due to the body kit. However, I would highly recommend you drive both and than make your decision. The V8 in the c43 makes a huge difference. Additionally the C43 has more advanced electronics, including the adaptive transmission from the sl600, which really makes it a much more aggressive car. It depends on what you want, and thats up to you at the end of the day, but compare both first.

im not very in love with V8 engines but I certainly didn't drive an C43 before so, your advice is accurate for sure!!
i also like the C36 body kit better but I also like how the C43 looks, so if I get a good C43 that I can get, amazing!!
i was also looking at the E55 ones but I don't know... too big car I think
