Chicago Benz's are cheap because we use way too much salt on the roads and, well, to paraphrase Neil Young, 'Rust Never Sleeps'.

My 250C that I picked up last year turned into a major project fast - new rockers, new trunk floor, new fenders. Then there was the new paint, new carpet, new headliner, new glass seals.......

If you want a car to have fun with, then go for it. If you are going into it as a business venture, I suggest you think again.

By the way, the 300CE is down the street from me. If you are interested and want me to have a look let me know.
