Nice to see some 190e's on here. What are you doing to lower the car, I ran cut springs for a while and it was just crap so I ended up putting my stock sportline ones back on. I have looked at the few different coil-over options that exist, and all the reviews don't seem to be too good for $2k+ coil-overs. Anybody on here ever run them, or know of cheaper sets out there?

I have Ground Control coils on my 190e. If you want super low, you should specify. I am okay with my ride height, but I do have a 16v... A little more track orientated than any old w201.

thanks, those were one option i was considering. I'm not trying to go too lowpretty much just remove the wheel gap, I live in Portland and driving a slammed car everywhere would be a nightmare.

Where did you get those?

Yeah, I understand that. I think I might have emailed you? Or the previous owner of that 2.6. Do you have the smoke silver 16v too? Or was that the previous owner.

Sorry for the thread jack, PO.

I just bought the car about a month ago, he showed me his 16v.... wouldn't sell it so I settled on the 2.6 too bad its an automatic....

definately do the interior swap. I **** blue interiors... Especially MB-ones

PS: if you need cheap parts: You need to look in my country. The rules of oldtimer taxes have been changed and a lot of old 190E's have been scrapped lately. Just sayin'...

[Marsss]

[loekaaz]
