1993 Mercedes 190e Sportline LE with Red Recaro
Mercedes Benz 1993 Sportline LE, Limited production of 700 cars for N. America built to celebrate the 11 successful production years from 1982-1993. 1993 being the last year. The 2.6-liter inline-six produced 160 horsepower when new and is paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission. For model year 1993, MBUSA sold 16,513 W201s, including the 1,400 Limited Editions. 700 2.3 litre Limited Edition Emerald Green versions and 700 2.6 litre Black versions
The 2.6 litre Sportline included Recaro seats with red inserts and red piping, rear matching headrests, carbon fiber trim, sportline gear shift, a sportier steering wheel, headlight wipers, low profile tires, 8 spoke rims, and a sportline tuned suspension which added tighter handling and lowered the car by a quarter inch. The suspension was the same suspension as the 190e Cosworth. So, The reason I'm asking.....who has one?? Is there a registry? I've seen prices all over the map. |

I believe the 2.3 also had Recaro supplied seats, however they weren't as bolstered as the 2.6 seats. They had a unique pattern and color, more like the E Class of the day. I brought my LE to the Mercedes-Benz display at Cars & Coffee at the 2016 Amelia Island Concours. Many had never heard of the series. I have the special sales literature MB developed to market the LEs. I also have another 190E, a black 2.3, as a Daily Driver. W201s in general are great cars for 1 or 2. Gets kinda tight with 4 inside. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...4576c127de.jpg Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |
