I would think the Renntech mods the seller describes would raise power output across the rev band, so maybe the speedo IS accurate. Dave, is it true what he says about all 500E's, even early ones, coming with R134a A/C from the factory? First I've heard of that. Seems odd for a '92 car.

It would make some sense that they'd ease into the switchover, and do it first on some sub-model of the line. -- Jim

Re: [MBZ] Nice 500E for sale
My 92 W140 has R134 from the factory. On another topic Dave, why in the hell did you show me that My 401K hates you We were huge John Paul fans during the 80' and have dozens of photos of their IMSA Porsches.
