That’s not the published factory time however.

Because driving a car with a cage without a helmet is a death wish...

For highlighting corruption under Obama?

The Viper will be back within 2 years if my tea leafs are correct. Don’t hold your breath but there are feelers out there at FCA suppliers.

BUT HE KNOWS MORE THAN YOU REALIZE!

The Model 3 and Elio crowd are not the same.

The Elio is a cheap, efficient second car or a primary for students or those just starting out.

The Model 3 is for the yuppie crowd with 50k in credit to burn trying to look techy and hip.

This is 100% a PR stunt.

Wallpaper resolution please.

My complaint is not the speed, I DD a W115 NA Diesel in the summer months, it’s about the woeful handling and generally uncomfortable ride being right over the steer axle.

I agree, a slow(er) vehicle is what you want for a vacation rig so long as it keeps you near the posted limit in most, non Colorado, trips.

Better: 

Ya dam Librals! If Ya had to work like us plebs you’re be content driving your W123 diesel to work every day and that’s all we’d hear about it!


/S

They’re awful to drive. That said I worked on a very unique AFN (TDI) swapped Doka with 4WD.

Amazing for the weekend, not to live with every day.

I called X Jet for a Bachelor party from Detroit to Phoenix, it was somewhere in there. I bet it’s reasonable if you picked your times right.

Try and pull over 100+ cars on one section of highway and see what happens.

Post it up on the Mercedes forums. If it was a diesel I’d pick it up from you but people are always after weird stuff like this.

I think it’ll sell fairly quickly if you give it a reasonable price.

Interior shots just for my curiosity? Crank windows and fabric would be awesome.

It’s a gray market car?

Someone would be interested. Do you have photos?

You can put a standard (diesel) cat on them and it cleans up the exhaust significantly.

Personally if I run 20% bio diesel in my OM617 it has the same effect. It changes the smell of the exhaust completely.

It’s safer for the kids to be that high up off the ground if there’s an impact. The busses are almost impossible to flip in wet conditions. Many districts make drives attempt it on a skid pad as part of their training.

You’re in pretty much the worst environment for any older car, also remember cars have become significantly faster over the years.

You’re just as fast as a semi truck, you can keep up.

But none of those were good engines, those were neutered versions of what once powered that car

The OM617 has pedigree.

The version that powers my car was the first 5 cylinder passenger engine, derived from an industrial sleeved motor with 500,000 miles between rebuilds.

The Mercedes swirl chamber design was the best…
