No, the 2.5 or 2.3 16v (as it is in the US of course we didnt get the good engine) dont have that large of a following, nor does it have that great of a history. It was a souped up preAMG badging (for the most part) benz. The only 190E that can be posted in this thread is the EvoII, but wait, we didnt get them, and it’s already been posted.
Not to mention, the American 2.3 16V’s blew.
And Minglor, I like the new quote, are you just using MPD quotes for your sig now? :lol:

True but I didn’t want to put the evo2 in there because it didn’t directly compete with the e30 m3…seeing as how the evo2 came out in the early 90’s and the 2.3 16v were the m3’s direct competition.
i agree with you that the american verison was detuned…which…what imported car isn’t (to meet our emissions)
the european version had 185hp…due to differnt cams and exhaust.
either way…i’d love to own either of these cars over their 21st century models
