Craig, it is a non turbo engine which would definately make it a gray market car. The US models all had turbos and the first W124 sold in the US was 1987.
I would check with your insurance co to be sure you can obtain coverage as some don't like to insure gray market cars. I would also check to be sure it has a current registration. Sounds like a fun car though with the 5 speed manual. John On 6/25/05, Craig McCluskey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Any comments about this car?
