I got a 'new' car! :) :D
I bought a '99 E320 w/ 65k miles Friday night in L.A..
IT has rear sunshade, Xenon lights (HID), healight washers, heated seats. It's black on black, with stock 16 chrome wheels. I already modded the car and got tinted windows all around at 22% and '02 E55 taillights on. I picked up a REAL (can't tell you the brand, it's a surprise) bodykit that will get painted and most likely put on this coming week. Wheels (19's) and springs/shocks will come soon enough, hopefully before the end of september (so I can make my back to school entrance in style :-P  ).Sorry no pics, we all know what a stock W210 looks like

Congrats on the new purchase.
Do you know if the crankshaft balancer has been replaced? If not, I'd get it replaced before it fails and does damage. Read this thread: Crankshaft Balancer Failure! UPDATED Does this mean that you are going to sell your W124 E320? It would be such a shame, especially considering all of the time and money you've spent modifying it. Does this also mean that you've given up on buying a W124 500E / E500? Do you mind if I ask how much you paid for it?

Paul, thanks for the head's up. I was aware of the problem already, and had my dad's '00 E320 checked out. I'll have mine checked out as well, and have the VMI pulled out to see if it had been done under warranty. You can see if it is near failure correct? I'll do a full fluid replacement (tranny, brake, radiator, engine, diff) and have everything checked out. IT drives like a dream as it is though I paid $21.9k for it plus tax and license. Low book is 21.5k. I sold my W124 for $17.5k (yes you read correctly!) as is with all of the goodies in there including the stereo. I made a killing on it even after I paid off the loan No 124.036 for me, I gave up on that idea, essentially because insurance would kick my butt, and I wanted a car that was newer. Also, since I'm a modder, I wanted to get a car with much more mods available to it

My goodness!
Who bought your W124 E320 for $17,500? You don't need to tell me their name, but was it someone on this forum or Bnzsport?

haha, nobody from these forums were dumb enough to buy it from me. Some clown I met in the street. He liked it and wanted it. He knew how much i paid for it (10k), yet he wanted it. lol. He said 15.5 at first. I wasnt gonna sell cuz i like my car too much. Then he bugged me and I said 17.5 or die, in the hopes that he'd leave me alone...well..he said yes. LOL!!!!!

Nice, very nice!
But I bet your headlights are cloudy. All 96-99 W210's have that issue. Get: blinking mirrors 2000- 2002 GPS roof antenna. Flat badge star on the hood 2nd set of HID's in the fogs Get the chrome headlight rings and paint them painted the color of your car(subtle but sweet mod  ). then you'll be pimpin! Just my modding opinion.
