190E
Hello from Northern California!

Hey everyone, happy to be here.

Just moved to Northern California a few months ago, and on the search for a daily and a classic MB.

Going to be on the prowl for an 05-06 E55, as well as fixing my eyes on a unicorn 190E 2.3 16v, if the right one ever pops up

Looking forward to becoming more active around here once I've got the keys in my hand!

1991 190E 2.3
Welcome. As the owner of a more mortal and much loved .190E-2.3 8v, your decision to look for a 16v is a good one. When you find a car, be sure to have it checked over by a marque expert. A lot of expensive flaws can. be hidden with a good paint job and detailing. Be sure to get as many service records as you can. Many 16vs have been driven hard with less than stellar maintenance. The really good ones are starting to go up in value so be prepared to pay for a really good one. Always buy the best car you can afford. Be sure to drop by the W201 section in this forum for all things 190E and best of luck with your search.
