It appears that wheel lug bolts extend slightly above the surface of the EVO2 wheels, wonder if they are correct seat (ball v. cone).

 

[sheward]

They are likely the W210 bolts which are a good choice if one does not have the correct ones.

They are likely the W210 bolts which are a good choice if one does not have the correct ones.

Agreed - based on how far the bolts protrude, I'm pretty sure they are the 85mm, double-head W210 bolts.

Price seems optimistic for a low-option Japan-spec car with only a (rare) bodykit & wheels. At least it's a nice color combo. Expensive cars+coffee toy though.

Two short honyemoons in a row?

Edit - make that three, see post #10 below.

In my opinion. The right hand steering is a PITA to get used to. I had a similar experience driving a 250TD in England. It felt weird that I was driving from the passenger seat my 1986 300E.

Also, I would question the ride on the lowered coil overs and 17” wheels. I thought I ruined the ride on my 300E when I lowered it and ran +2 17” rims and tires. It may have the same problem as my 300E. “Looked Great but the ride was CRAP”

Again just my opinion.

 

[puchak]

Totally agree @TerryA and wow, a whopping 3kkm. Not surprised. It blows my mind how people are willing to throw money at a RHD car that typically came in LHD and drive it in the LHD fashion.

Personally, I'd only make the LHD -> RHD exception on very few cars. For example, my friend recently got a Mitsubishi Evo V and I adore the car.

Sold for $18k plus fees, or ~$18,800 with fees, about $21-$22k all-in with T/T/T/T.

I've only just come across these posts.

Here in the UK, if we want an E500E, we have to "like it or lump it" regarding the LHD! But personally, I have never had any problems adapting to the LHD from RHD - even when swopping between the two on a daily basis. There are some circumstances, i.e. when overtaking, when LHD means a bit more caution, but overall I forgive the car its LHD because of the fabulous driving experience.

And when I drive in Europe (which used to be quite frequently, but less so these days), I naturally take the E500!
