1980 Mercedes-Benz 300SD (W116)
- First Turbo Diesel passenger car sold in North America (it's a 5cyl!)
- Natural weight reduction, never used ozempic (rusted to all to high hell) (still a tank)
- Studded General Grabber A/Tx tires paired with 80s Thule still racks to get me and my friends to the ski mountain in comfort and style
- Rear seat filled with cut up mattress toppers because the foam and horse hair it was made of probably never made it out of the 2000s.
- Deleted ALDA system for more fuel regardless of boost level
- 13PSI of boost up from 7 stock
- Still has the factory 18 Second 0-60MPH because those big ass tires trash the gearing (it would probably only be 16 without them)
- Side dump exhaust because under previous ownership all the exhaust hanger mounts rusted away and it all fell off
- People love it way more than my Volvo, think it's worth a lot (I bought it for $1000 and on marketplace)
- I have been daily driving it
