There are smog exempt counties in CA... Just need to look for them.



Cats are cheap here in CA, just need to know the right people. We put a cat on a friends 300E for about $150, and it passed CA smog just fine.

it's automatic.

Being that everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING on the car works properly, runs ideal and I've never had an error light I'd pretty confident in saying a new cat would make it just the same as any other 500E.

Plus this isn't just a normal sort of skirting the laws gray market car, this one was federalized at an amazing cost to the original owner, so she's not some gray market 500 that had a VIN badge swapped or the headlights swapped and was snuck under the radar. She had her conversion done in CA, in 1992, and passed a full inspection up there.

Now, I'm open to offers everyone, I was just laid off today from work.

Really sorry to hear that. Anybody? Anybody?

I asked the wife if she'd like to sell the w203 c class and buy a euro 500e. She didn't look amused and said "why don't you sell your wagon?", to which I replied "cause then we'd have two sedans and no wagon".

Sorry.
