This has been in the works a short while, but I've taken delivery of my C43 AMG T and am touring it around Europe before I ship it back to Texas.



Though it has a German export plate on it, this was an Italian market car. So there are very few options installed.

 

Nice score! What transmission is in that car? 722.6 or some one off manual?

maw

 

Stock transmission.

The car is a single owner from new, aside from two dealers.
The only deviation from stock I can find is that the owner deleted the model designation on the rear and (poorly) painted the AMG logo black. They also changed out the speakers, I'd assume do to age. Italian market cars were delivered without stereos, but with speakers. The owner (or more likely the dealer) installed the same Kenwood that many Mercedes dealers in Spain, Italy, Turkey, Greece and Egypt installed. I had it replaced with a Blaupunkt Frankfurt RCM 82 DAB, which looks correct in the dash, and accepts auxiliary input.

 

Very Kool!!!

 

Now that will certainly get heads to turn when you get back to the USA as the S202's were never imported there

 

Very Nice! Tuxedo Interior, or other for Italy??

 

Nice! You shall be the envy of the 'burbs! More pics plz lol

BTW I notice you are missing the "tooth brace" in the front bumber. There is a guy who makes perfect copy. Just shout and I'll try and find his info..... And if you get one don't forget to zip tie the thing to the bumber otherwise it has tendency to fall off

Here's a link just in case:

No fancy interior for Italy. It has the standard AMG black leather.

And yep, it's missing the grill bar and the bumper mounting is bodged on one side. I've got the replacement bar bookmarked and I'll hand it over to my paint and body guy to make it right.

 

Very cool! My wife would hate it but I would love it. Can't wait to see more pics from your European trip and when you get it back home.

 

Well, here's a shot waiting for the ferry in Belagio, to cross Lake Como.








And one on the tight mountain switchbacks between Lecco and Bergamo.

 

I had one of the retro Blaupunk stereos installed. This is the Frankfurt RCM 82 DAB. It looks correct in the dashboard and has front and rear aux inputs.

Love it. thanks for sharing.

 

Congrats!

Funny enough, I have a set of NOS Brabus springs for the S202 (I bought them during COVID thinking they were for the sedan, but when I read the paperwork I realized I was wrong.). Been trying to sell stateside for years, but nobody really has a S202.If you're interested, DM me.
