Default Mercedes 190E, 3.0L swapped/manual

Tyler Clarke
Winchester, VA 22601
Contact either on here, or with contact info provided below.
Price- $5k, but trade only.
SW20 MR2 (turbo or V6) or MR-S are preferred trades.


1992 Mercedes Benz 190E 2.6 Sportline
-M103 3.0L I6 swap (from Mercedes 300E) 123,000 miles on engine
-5 speed manual conversion using all OEM Mercedes parts and factory replacement clutch kit. Almost a $2k setup.

Engine is 100% bone stock, retaining air conditioning and power steering. One of the most reliable vehicles I have ever owned. There is no driveability issues whatsoever. No small quirks to the drive train, etc.
The exhaust is straight piped, retaining the cat, and is music for an enthusiasts ears. I'm not one for loud exhausts, but the inline 6 plays a beautiful symphony at any RPM.

Suspension:
Bilstein shocks
H&R springs
The combo runs almost $850 for the pairing.

Wheels:
1990 Mercedes Benz Evolution II wheels powder coated a light gun metal color. There were only 502 of these cars produced, and the wheels are extremely rare and cost anywhere between $1500-2500 for a decent set. The wheels have 0 curb rash and are in perfect condition, including the Mercedes center caps.
They are wrapped in nearly brand new (8/32nds) Toyo 205/40/17 tires.

Will also come with the complete set of OEM wheels, wrapped in brand new Cooper studded snow tires.


The interior is a beautiful tan leather interior. The leather is neither cracked nor torn, still is extremely good condition. All of the power seat (both front seats) options work flawlessly.
It is missing the small piece of trim around the two center vents, but I've found a complete parts car that I will be getting it from.
Pioneer speakers all around. The sound is very crisp, compliment each other well. There is currently a Kenwood head unit installed, a couple years old, without AUX or Bluetooth support. I have a new JVC unit that is waiting to be installed to remedy this. The current head unit still operates perfectly though. There are no subwoofers installed currently, my S13 adopted them, but all of the appropriate cables, wires, and fuses are ran if you feel the need to thump a bit.

The car was resprayed by the previous owner less than 18 months ago. For the most part, the white looks very good with the exception of a little run that can be seen in the right light on the hood, behind the emblem. The two toned black on the other hand, appears to have been done cheaply. A couple chips in it and what not, but it looks good from a few feet away. Really doesn't bother me at all.

Price is $5,000 or best offer. But I am not really interested in selling. And I don't want to trade for a lesser car with money on top or for a more expensive car with money on my end.
I am mainly after a SW20 Turbo MR2 or a 3rd gen MR-S. Not interested in any variation of the AW11.
SW20 can be either a factory turbo car, N\A swapped 3SGTE, or even any variation of the multiple V6 swaps available.
I will entertain other vehicles, but must be in my favor. I do not want a FWD vehicle, and I've had and have way too many 240's.

Please respond on here, if a trade offer is sent, please be detailed with pictures or at least link me to your FS/FT post.
You can also text me at any time, early or extremely late is fine, at 540-323-09three7.

$3200 is the asking price of the MR2 I'm attempting to buy. If someone can bring me that for my car by New Years, it's yours!
