Did he do w203 and w211? Those are the best. He did do the w220 that trickled down to everything.

He certainly did do the w203, didn't do the w211, but the w210.

Sacco rose through the corporate ranks at Daimler-Benz over the next fifteen years, becoming chief engineer in 1974, before taking over from Friedrich Geiger as head of the Daimler-Benz styling center at Sindelfingen in 1975.[1][4] For the next quarter century, until he retired in 1999, he was responsible for the design of every Mercedes road car, bus, and truck.[5] Among his numerous works are the C111 concept car, three successive generations of the S‑Class luxury saloons, (the W126, W140, and W220), the R129 SL convertible, the C-Class W202 compact executive car, the W124 and W210 versions of the E-Class sedan, the CLK and SLK sports cars, the M-Class luxury sport utility vehicle, and second generation C‑Class W203.[1] Sacco made significant contributions to the design of the Mercedes W123, the best selling Mercedes-Benz ever,[6] as well as his very last design, the R230 SL convertible (in 1997).

been for sale for awhile.

i think it's well priced - but not everybody can get down without somebody else's project, especially such a major (manual) swap.

Cammisa just bought a CSI, and cut a new revelations episode about it - definitely bringing some eyeballs back to the E31 world

I like how Cammisa used to at least say he struggled with the idea of featuring or attaching his name to a car he owned knowing that it would likely increase its value... but with the 850 he just straight up went for it. Buys one and then does a full feature on it after and now he can rake it in when he sells it lol

he addressed exactly that in a recent podcast

he bought the car after the story was pitched

not defending it - just FYI

(not going to try to find the timestamp - they're too long, but it's here)

whistler is 120km for me. the e-golf will do 160?, less in the cold, less w the climb, less w the ski rack/box

e-golf users have told me they do it but i'd be worried. better coming home i guess.

thing is - as a day skier, there's nowhere i can leave it on a charger all day. no return trip juice = no bueno.

i wouldn't do a whistler day in anything w under 300km range.

it's too bad - the e-golf is the ideal electric vehicle to me. looks good, drives well.
