This one is euro-spec Japan import. Anybody know the scoop on these ones??
This one has 2' lowering kit, amg body work, custom exhaust. Interior is excellent.
VIN search on the Russian site indicates only AMG Stuttgart.
If it is an AMG, why no decalling or badging??
Oh gurus please be patient with me!!
what do you the gurus think its worth???
Thanks!


P.S. It has 138,00 kms
Cheers!!

For an AMG factory setup that's one seriously ghetto second air intake scoop/piping. :P

Yes DW124, my engine is identical minus the AMG badging on the breather box. Are these very common on the w124 sedans??

I want to know more about that airbox. I almost got one a few months ago from a member here.

Do you have any pictures of the airbox and the filter inside? A part number maybe?

'91 C124 300CE,'06 ML 500 W164, '00 BMW MCOUPE, '65 COBRA REPL.
In the US at least these motors were not available in the sedans.
They went straight from the 12 valves M103 to the 3.2 M104.
They were available in the coupes from 91 to 93 then the coupes got the
M104.
Not sure about Canada though. In Europe and other markets fairly common, I believe.
The motor pictured is an AMG, yours is not.
It was an update of the M103 and has about 217hp.
I have it in my 300CE.

Sure looks like it would negate the whole "cold air intake" thing the original MB set up had going.


Right over the exhaust manifolds.......nice hot air intake, bro!
