Welcome,now the fun begins!

 

Great price. Low miles. What's wrong with it?

Hey lowesguy, you on here too?

 

Yup!

 

not sure i bought it as a parts car...

its in better condition than i thought however so ive thought of restoring it instead... :/ lol

 

It's amazing that you can get a $100k car for 1% of the original cost.

 

yeah well i did haggle with the guy and talked him down. but it is an amazing car. as i tell everyone who will listen "why buy a cheap car when you can get a mercedes for less" they often reply that repairs are expensive which i say that i go to the dealer (most expensive repairs compared to an indy) and it still is relatively cheap and affordable. i compared it with mazda which is pricy for parts. it just makes sense to enjoy your money by getting a mercedes / that will hold up in a crash better too than some economy car....

i personally dont care about gas mileage because its something you gotta pay for regardless of price ect. but thats the only legitimate claim i can see... i get around 10mpg :o !!!

 

Well you scored. Let us know what needs to be done in the future.

Mine gets about 14mpg combined. The 5 speed M113 gets better mileage than the 4 speed M119.

 

will do

 

Euro needs a 400HP V12!

 

when my m119.960 makes 1000hp ill take you for a ride john. ha.
