LOL....can't deny that one. Most cars are depreciating assets to begin with anyway....unless you keep them for 50 years and in fine shape with low miles.

My then 80,000$ 500E is maybe worth 10 now...and your car is maybe worth half that, maybe ...

1989 190E 3.0L 5speed
awww.... zedstyle... how could you say something like that? I would trade my car for a Corvette any day as long as it was in good condition. That guy Gen3Benz is smart putting a LS3 in his 190e.

How about Ferrari then? A $650,000 Enzo? No thank you. I would rather take the 7 Corvette's I could buy with the same amount of money and go faster, look cooler, sound better, etc... Not to mention the new Corvette ZR1 coming out next year with 600 HP stock! holly *****

Sorry for that... I really do like my 190e and I bet it will go more miles without any major maintenance than a new corvette anyway.
