German sourced AMG/Brabus parts
So I came across this website on german ebay, and thought some of you guys might be interested. I speak german well enough to get around and this site is pretty sick if you can handle the language barrier/shipping and customs fees. This guy sources used AMG and Brabus european models and sells complete cars/wrecks/parts. For example, he has a wrecked Brabus 300TE that was hit in the rear, which equals an untouched 3.5L engine that moves like 280 horsepower.

I would encourage a look at least. click "weiter" to enter the website. (it means further, or literally "onward")

W124's
So, How can I go about ordering some parts?
Kind of difficult to go through the site without understanding a single word. Wanna help a brotha out!?

well, what do you want to order? I can drop the guy an e-mail asking him about his stock. For example, he broke down a w124 AMG for parts and sold the entire thing on German ebay. Body kit, shocks, full engine, etc. The only problem sourcing parts from Germany is the shipping costs. Springs/shocks/etc. aren't nearly that bad. ~50 Euro. But full w124 Brabus/AMG parts are hard to come by in the states, so I guess that certainly makes it worth it. Just let me know what you want and I'll do what I can to help.

if anybody is interested in buying a car, he has a 1990 300ce AMG, 3.2 AMG engine, full body kit, exhaust, deep dish wheels, etc. I dunno, it looks sweet. He also has an 500e with the same. Shipping it here would be annoying/expensive.

It sure sounds like a real business opportunity for bilingual guy willing to up-front the cost to import the stuff. It sounds like we are all interested and would buy. Besides, getting stuff put in a container would be slower, but would reduce costs and get more stuff here at one time, making recouping your money and enjoying the profits that much easier.
Wish I spoke German.....where is my Rosetta Stone when I need it?!!!
BTW: I'll take some dished Monoblocks pleeze.
