That is the coolest damn car i've seen in a while. I am in the process of a m119 swap into a 190. I have been trying to find pictures and specs on this car for a couple weeks to kinda build a copycat looking replica. anybody know where to find anything on it, drivin me nuts. thanks

Wow, one of my dream cars as a kid was the 190 23-16 EVO II < http://www.worldcarfans.com/5050208.001 > This one looks and sounds very similar to it. I wish I had one for road racing over the weekends.

fastmbtek, the m119's are great engines but on the 190 it probably will be front heavy and cause it to under steer just in case you plan to race it. IF you find a 23-16 engine with a turbo on it, it might be more neutral and more fun to drive.

my daily driver is a 16 valve that will eventually have a turbo install (parts in garage). I'm using the 119 to keep with benz originality and with a tuned suspension and the weight ballast set up I don't think i'll have any real issues other than setting it up. thanks for your input though.
