fwiw, the C36 AMG is a hot little car. Hope it gets a good home.

If I was in the market, I would be all over that. I could PM and ask about trading for a 968, but I'm afraid he might take me up on it.

Funny I started out looking for one of those but now I am also looking for an E36 M3 instead. BTW thanks Tony for all the info and links you sent me on the C36 and E55's

unclespeed · 08-03-2009, 04:39 PM

E36 M3, definitely wins on cool factor...

A friend of mine just bought this E36:

A little bit too mod'd for my taste but I drove it on Saturday night and was surprised of the TORQUE that the supercharged I-6 put out........

I wish I had a bigger garage.

Is the 95 the same as the W124 500E? Hell I'd give $4501 (he wanted offers over 4500). Have half of that in ship'g it back here though!

JDHertz11 · 08-04-2009, 10:47 AM

500E's are still in the $20K range for junk.........

993inNC · 08-04-2009, 02:24 PM

NO ^^^^^^^ see them all day long for 10-14k

bora · 08-06-2009, 10:19 PM

I am the owner of this car and also owned a 996 GT3 for a while

Car is in Eastern WA state about 3 hrs from Portland and 3.5 hrs from Seattle.

Not exactly as common as a PT Cruiser.... All day long.... Very imaginative...

993inNC · 08-07-2009, 08:19 AM

Well there's enough around to call a market price. The 500e website has them, they come up on ebay occasionally. Agree'd they not PT common, but a handful at the same price tells me what I'd want to know.....
Anyway we're off topic here
