I love the 601 190's, but I would not buy this one.

The price is way too high.

I had the velour interior and it is hard to keep clean and it wears out much quicker than the mb tex.

There are tons of 84-86 190 5-speeds which are much better deals. Btw, the 5 speed was the only manual tranny in the US, and it is a great advantage over the 4 speed.

WRT to the 240d comments, I have a 123 and a 126 both with 617's and my daily driver is the 190....
