sin-R · 03-28-2004, 03:13 AM

I finaly got me a car! It isn't a 'real' drifter, but it has rwd, and after I get some heavy mod's, I'll get about 400 hp (that's what I'm aiming for..not sure if I'm going to just go for a turbo or try to do it without yet...)

It's a 1985 Mercedes-Benz 190E with a 2.3 litre, 16 Vaulves engine.. originaly lowerd and deskritly styled. It has 185 hp right now. (everything is original). Full Leather interior, etc :P

Can't wait to try it on the track!

I LOVE GERMAN CARS, probably because iam german

man that is one nice Benz, good job.

because im geting my firstt car in a month

mranlet · 03-28-2004, 10:18 AM

Props to the sedan drifers!

zdss14 · 03-28-2004, 12:46 PM

very nice benz

sin-R · 03-28-2004, 02:14 PM

Thanks for the replys!
And I'll try not to crash it

I payd about 6 400 US Dollars for it.. It might seem steap, but it isn't compared to the other cars I look'd at. And remember that I live in norway, so every thing is more expencive!

*Edit*
Just to give you an example, if you take that price and pluss on the same amount (about 12 000 USD), you'll get the price for a prety nice 200sx s13 (240sx)........ Gott'a love Norway...

Drift For Food · 03-28-2004, 03:23 PM

That looks nice. I especially love the fuzzy dice.

One thing that can make the car look better: wax. She needs one.

The wheels look good on it too.

400hp eh? I'd settle for maybe 250hp or so, but 400hp is more fun.

SHIFT_drift · 03-28-2004, 03:27 PM

yeh i was gonna say that the fuzzy dice are sweet... lol

Drift For Food · 03-28-2004, 04:08 PM

You know it makes the car go faster, lol.

Ghost of Duluth · 03-28-2004, 04:12 PM

Man the 190 16 valves are super cool cars. Hard to find around here too. Good luck and props on that car. I want one.

Rooney · 03-28-2004, 04:46 PM

Very, Very, NICE.

lv2drft · 03-28-2004, 10:03 PM

is that an auto? or did they make some standards with that car. not much info on mbz's so. nice one though, looks straight.

sin-R · 03-29-2004, 07:27 AM

Thanks again, everybody!

Offcaurse it's manual

Drift For Food: I know, 400 hp is a bit high, but no problem with a little help frome some buddys, but again, they need buddy money

And I want a power-slide car.. remember that this is a quite heavy car..
I'll aim for stiffening, 250 hp and a polish.. btw, had it run on the dyno.. made 185 hp originaly, and 200 bhp with the dice!

(just kiddin'

)

Ghost of Duluth: Thanks! I really wanted a 2.5 16V, but it would have cost me dobble of the price of this one.. (no mater the shape it was in :-\)

Shin_Kudou · 03-29-2004, 01:41 PM

Haha! It's a 190E!!!

I actually sorta miss mine. Of course, mine was a 8v (108 HP!!!) auto that crapped out on me in three months......

dae · 03-29-2004, 05:23 PM

normally im not into euro cars that much but i must say that thing is sick. congrats!!!

You need the hp to push around some of that fat lady's weight (the benz's).

REVLIMIT · 03-29-2004, 08:26 PM

Damn thats a pretty nice benz...I normally dont like mercedez but thats pretty nice. I used to drift a benz before...though it was a 81 Benz diesel...and I could only do sharp u turns.

WildSe7en · 03-30-2004, 06:54 AM

sweet Benz! very clean

aphxero · 03-30-2004, 07:55 AM

Can you say VIP?

I'm not really liking the grille though. Makes it look like it belongs to big daddy kane.
Solid grille and it would be off the hook!

sin-R · 03-30-2004, 08:18 AM

Thanks!!

Jup Rooney, she needs da power!

aphxero: I know what you mean.. hadx'd feelings about it, but I like it now.. It's unusual, and kinda cool..

Man, I'm thinking of buying some bling bling chrome wheels next season.. maybe that would just be too much?

180onthebricks. · 03-30-2004, 09:22 AM

not really unless the parts get in the way of drifting, thats when its kinda rice when parts dont assist u in a better performing car, ssr makes nice bling wheels

SilverGhost · 03-30-2004, 08:46 PM

that is a SICK benz.......will look even better sideways....hee hee

Rufio_28532 · 04-01-2004, 04:30 PM

I like I like, that car is nice, i would love to see someone drift one.

vervius · 04-01-2004, 05:11 PM

nice, really nice

sin-R · 04-02-2004, 07:00 AM

Thank you all!
I can assure you that it will go sideways, one way or the other

Hang on for more updates through the season!
