Hi
How can you tell if the car was a Euro car or a US market car?
The vin # is 12603612001173*
Also how do they do for highway gas mileage?
Thanks

eurocars [at least merc] vin start with model number.
way back they all started with model number, i think it ended in u.s in later '70's.
gas mileage
you most likely won't get much, and you'll have to burn premium.
this will not be an inexpensive car.
i love 'em, but they are not cheap to gas and maintain...
if you currently are looking for something that won't take time, energy, and money to keep going, you may want to seriously keep looking.
do a "search" on grey market or gray market, great info
