1992 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3

This 1992 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3 is a beautifully preserved, two-owner example of the legendary W201 “Baby Benz,” finished in elegant Smoke Silver Metallic over a Creme Beige MB-Tex interior and showing just 80,500 original miles. Sold new by Viti Motors of Rhode Island and regularly serviced throughout its life, this final-year W201 represents one of Mercedes-Benz’s most respected and over-engineered compact luxury sedans. The current owner acquired the car five years ago as a secondary vehicle and has driven it fewer than 500 miles since, making this an outstanding opportunity to acquire a remarkably well-kept modern classic.
