1991 MERCEDES 190 EVO2

i'm selling my 1991 mercedes 190 evo2, a non sunroof car, and one of 500 made-the car has 29k miles on it, and is completely original and in excellent shape-this was a one owner car from the south of france, so a rust free climate..the car comes with tools, original spare tire, emergency medical kit, and maintenance book-everything works-even the AC blows cold!

i have $11k in recent invoices that i spent going through the car when i got it, making sure everything was in tip top shape-i also replaced (but i still have the original) the steering wheel with a v rare period correct AMG wheel that was used in the DTM cars..

the car is registered and titled in NYS

asking $185k..

thanks!

Here you go.

Only 502 units of the Evolution model were produced for homologation in compliance with DTM rules. For those customers desiring even more performance, a PowerPack option engineered by AMG was available for DM 18,000. The PowerPack option included hotter camshafts, a larger diameter throttle body, more aggressive ignition and fuel management as well as optimization of the intake and exhaust systems. The net result was an additional 30 bhp (22 kW).

In March 1990, at the Geneva Auto Show, the 190 E 2.5-16 Evolution II was shown. With the success of the first Evolution model, this model's 502-unit production was already sold before it was unveiled. This car retailed in 1990 for USD $80,000.

The "Evo II" included the AMG PowerPack fitted to the same short-stroke 2.5 engine as the Evolution, as well as a full SLS suspension allowing vehicle ride height to be adjusted from an interior switch. An obvious modification to the Evolution II is a radical body kit (designed by Prof. Richard Eppler from the University of Stuttgart) with a large adjustable rear wing, rear window spoiler, and Evolution II 17-inch wheels. The kit served an aerodynamic purpose—it was wind tunnel tested to reduce drag to 0.29, while at the same time increasing downforce. Period anecdotes tell of BMW research and development chief, Wolfgang Reitzle, saying "the laws of aerodynamics must be different between Munich and Stuttgart; if that rear wing works, we'll have to redesign our wind tunnel." The anecdote claims that BMW did.[16]

As mentioned 500 were made in "blauschwarz" blue/black metallic. But the last two, numbers 501 and 502 were made in astral silver.

You do realize that this is how much they cost, right?

Other examples are selling for over $300,000.

Mercedes said it would do 0-60 in 6 seconds flat. That was fast in 1990. Just to compare, a 1990 Ferrari 348 TB does 60 in 5.9.

i was sitting on here struggling not to reply. This is the coolest amg you can ever own. I'm pretty confident that this is one of the original models the 190 e that started the amg line up for mercedes. i agree with everyone on here and as for the other kid that said 1.8 or 18k lol they sell for way over 185 and its actually an appreciating asset. I'm sure he didn't know so will play nice guys haha. amazing post and goodluck with sale!

WOW! What a Rare piece of Automotive history. GLWS. I'm sure if you hold out for the right buyers you will be able to sell it for more than the asking price.

If your truly interested in selling you should consider contacting Bruce Canepa in Scotts Valley CA. This seems like a car he would be interested in. He may be interested in buying it or helping you sell. He buys/sells/restores unique sports cars. He is the one who federalized all the Porsche 959's.
