I am the proud owner of 2 CE's a 92 and a 93. The 92 is the other half's car and the 93 is mine.

Her's is bright red/ dark red/ parchment with 108K miles. It has the factory Becker with 10 disc CD in the trunk. It's bone stock except for the 16x8 - 8 hole real MB wheels with 225/50ZR16 Conti Sport (OE Porsche) all around. Future upgrade include a full set of air dams and a complete strip and repaint over the winter. A new set of euro headlights are being sought after now as is an exhaust system.
I think the wife will look good driving an '84 Chevy 1/2 ton with lots of rust for a while. Maybe she will walk the extra 50 feet when she parks. NOT! I have a 2 door Honda Civic Dx (roll up windows and all) for her to drive when she gets her first dent after refreshing is done!! (please don't flame me)

I have a 93 CE black/black w/ black interior with 74k miles. Only one door ding! I bought it from a Dr. (2nd owner) who had a Starmark warranty on it. The factory Becker with the 6 disc CD player in trunk is still working but it has to have some attn. soon. The wheels 16x8 BBS's arrived today and a set of tires are being located as I type. This car is going to stay bone stock and will only get about 12k miles a year. I would like to drop a taller rear end into the car so it will really get off the line and an ASR bypass switch so I can play. What good are tires if they last more than 25k miles?

My other car is a 1992 500e, pearl black/ grey with black interior with 57K miles. Dead stock exept for the AMG chip. Enough said about whyI don't want to pep up the coupes too much. I need money to start prepping the 500 into a true beast. i will be posting a thread under 500e's soon.

Items needed; 1-2 sets of euro headlights, Sportline suspension package,and a money tree so my kids can stay in college
