Craigslist Find: '86 Mercedes 190E Cosworth

Now that the E30 M3 has reached a level of popularity that places it firmly outside of the average enthusiast budget, it's time to consider another German alternative. The 190E was the direct competitor for the M3 and offered a very similar package (RWD, 180hp 2.3 4 cylinder, optional manual transmission). The E30 M3 was never offered as a four door so the Merc is a little bit more functional. These cars are very competent and don't go for anywhere near what the M3's do (yet). We expect that the Cosworth cars will go up in value over the next few years. This car looks to be well maintained and has all the right upgrades and options. Find it here, in Flowery Beach, GA, for $5,500.
