I bought the car dirt cheap. My original intent was to part the car out if I couldn't get it functional without spending big $$$...and it still may be. The Sport wheels and the as new tires will more than recoup my original investment, not to mention the Sport bumper covers, rocker panels, etc. along with a solid interior and anything and everything else...and then get more at the crusher. The new key from MB would be $250 or so, but as I stated previously, I sent the original damaged key to Beckmann Technologies for "repair" ($50) and I will get it back tomorrow. If the key works, I'll evaluate the car as a potential keeper. It came with only one key and the history on the car is sketchy at best, all of which i knew going in. If it is more involved (i.e., replacing the EIS, ECM, etc.), I will most probably just strip and sell. I'll make that decision when I put the key in the car tomorrow...
