I’m a big fan of manual transmissions, but I’ve read nothing good about the numb MB manual transmissions of the 80's and 90's. Maybe the 190E was okay. 

I’ve always exceeded the EPA ratings as well, even in my automatics. (That doesn’t make them very helpful ratings.)

I hear Pakistan could use some dry lodgings. Now how would one get it there?

I may be too skeptical, but I feel like the EPA ratings rely on manual transmission drivers not knowing how to shift appropriately, or assuming they will shift at higher revs for more fun. By putting all manual trans drivers into those ‘boxes’, they mis-represent that one can probably match an auto pretty closely in

I was just trying to find out what they received for it. Estimates in 2007 were $29,000.

That Ad you posted seems to be the anomaly. There are a LOT of ~100,000 mile Marauders posted for $18,000-$24,000 out there. You can get cheaper, but it would come down to intangibles for each vehicle. I think this is fair market priced for this condition for a car that has a following.

This IS from the era when American automakers thought the term “GT” meant a trunk spoiler, side skirts, and maybe some fog lights on a budget car design. Was there a GT car from the 80's which actually received performance improvements?

I don’t know why car reviewers are so negative about buttons. (“Boo hoo! Porsche has SO MANY buttons on their center console!”) (Not sure how recent that review was, but I heard it from more than one source.) Once you learn where buttons are, you should not need to remove your eyes from the road to access that

Will those tires get caught on the wheel well if they go over anything larger than a cell phone? I highly doubt that will rock crawl. 

Is the passenger side headlight cover missing in that last image? Why?

I don’t think I’d be in even at 10k. This thing probably rides poorly, accelerates poorly, handles poorly, probably sounds bad, and sucks gas. I do like the interior. The tail lights might be nice if we could see them in action. Or they might look like little spots in that huge light bar. Also, no pictures of the

I was going to ND this, but you’re right! This is a 1 owner enthusiast car of a model which was coveted back in the day. You’ll get more smiles out of this than a trip to Disney World. (Which can cost just as much.)

We’ll have to make due with traveling on one of the private jets, or staying at one of our five luxurious homes. It will be rough for a while. 

Violins are not the answer! 

This car is in Michigan, so check the underside for rust.

It’s a good think the Bugatti has 1500 horsepower to speed away from those scooters! If he was driving a Fiesta, they might have given chase! Scary!

Sorry, this is ‘Merica, where you shoot first and claim self defense later. (“That unarmed black kid threatened me by looking at me funny!”)

“Please look away from your phone and drive through that green light in front of you!!”

I hope they are mummified, because violence against hookers should be left in the  70's. 

Hey, Cops gotta text as well!
