Our Take:
  • Rare Homologation Special: The 1989 Mercedes-Benz 190E Evolution 1 is a true gem for collectors, being one of only 502 units ever produced. This special model was part of Mercedes' efforts to compete in the Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft (DTM), making it highly desirable for enthusiasts of motorsport heritage.
  • Cosworth Collaboration: The heart of this 190E is a 2.5-liter DOHC inline-four developed in collaboration with Cosworth, featuring 202 horsepower. It's fascinating to think that this partnership brought a touch of British engineering prowess to a staunchly German machine, enabling it to compete fiercely on the racetrack.
  • Distinctive Aerodynamic Features: The Evolution 1 sports aggressive front and rear valances, a prominent rear wing, and distinctive fender flares—all integral to its identity. These modifications weren't just for show; they were essential for improving aerodynamic efficiency and handling on the track.
  • Imported from Japan: This specific 190E Evo 1 was originally shipped to Japan, a market known for its respect for automotive preservation. The fact that it remains in excellent condition, retaining most of its stock features, adds to its allure, especially with the addition of a modern R134 air conditioning system enhancing its comfort factor.
