I am going back to the '90s Mercedes well sooner than I normally would due to the rarity of this 1993 Mercedes-Benz 190E Sportline for sale in San Diego.

Rarity, and cleanliness. The ad is sparse on details, but the car looks quite clean in photos -- though the seller does mention some patina in the paint.

It appears to have the 2.6-liter engine making 158 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque and an automatic transmission.

The title is clear and the registration is current.

The seller hasn't listed the mileage, but the ask is $6,500.

Tim Healey

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Tassos has completed his mission of bullying and intimidating the editors.

  I was going to suggest a Stanza, but a Vigor will suffice!

Too much power for me. Pass.

Dale I'd consider the RAV4 if the Prime were on the table as paying for gas is for suckers. Otherwise, we have a couple of Mazdas and they are swell. I've driven older versions of both and the CX-5 is a nicer place to live.

Flashindapan Beautiful color combinations. I assumed they stop selling the TT here at least five or six years ago.
Carson D Just don't be the whistleblower who reports on the falsification of safety data. That's a deadly profession.
Carson D I'd have responded sooner, but my computer locked up and I had to reboot it.
