It must be really very strange to go from one of your cars to the other.....if you forget which one you are in for even an instance, you could get into serious trouble.

how could one forget ? both are VERY distinctive.

Nice! That's a rather unusual color and I like it! I didn't know that Mercedes offered that color for the W123.

BTW, speaking about confusing cars, I drove a Ford Taurus after not touching any other car but the 300CD for a long time and I drove really fast and the Taurus felt so powerful.

thanks !!

id like to see more pics of yours with the newer CLK wheels if possible....

That car is not mine, it's owned by a forum member called andy. He sent me the pictures when I asked him for them.
I hope he doesn't mind that I repost them..
his e-mail address is bubbastain@hotmail.com

Hey those rims look good on that car.

THey also look good on EUROCOUPE's 190E. Nice color too, I like it. Looks sharp.

Thanks,

Austin

DAMN ! !

thats NICE !

:eek: :cool: :eek: :cool: :D :D

Nice sled KW. Only question, what's all that green stuff in the backdrop???? :D :p

I saw a 1983 (I think '83) 300D Turbo for sale a long time ago in that color, very distinctive and I really liked it. I wish I knew then what I know now, because back then I couldn't justify spending 6.5K on a 14 year old car (even though it only have 70K miles). Shoulda, woulda, coulda, but I didn't.

kdubbu,

Nice looking auto. :) I also have a 83' 300 CD. Between Holson and your car, I have a lot of work to do to catch up. I notice that your antenna is up. Did you have your radio in when you were taking pictures or do you suffer the same problem with a bad antenna motor as I do? Really sharp looking ride......

Holson,

Thanks for posting them for me. I need to figure out how to host my own stuff.

All,

Check out the tires...Michelin Pilot Sport AS THey are awesome riding, way better than stock.

The wheels and tires costed more than my car did.

Austin

It appears that the gray CD above has had it's headlight surrounds painted to match the body: a nice look if you don't want to spring for euro lights, I really like it!
What about the longevity of paint on plastic, any problems?

why is it that the coupes ride so high in the rear?

I wish I could post pictures of mine but the only ones I have are from just after I bought it. The PO took terrible care of it. Looks much nicer now that I have my hands on it.

Craig

the antenna does not work, i just kinda keep it where it is- its not that big of a deal anyways, i rarely listen to the radio in the car since I installed the audio system in the car.


thanks for the nice words !

Thanks Holson for posting the pictures of my car. I would have done it a long time ago if I knew how. When I purchased the car the previous owner had painted the headlight surrounds black. So I decided to paint them the same as the car thinking it would look good. I like it. I would prefer the euro lights. But I can do that later if I want to. I paint is holding up great on the surrounds. No chips or peeling. andy
