My neighbor in Echterdingen worked at the MB factory and was able to get a new 190E 2.5-16 in Black. I was so envious as I could never afford a car like that at the time.
Touche...Fairfax is a better comparison than Baltimore and one can certainly think of it as a suburb. Yes, I remember the 190E 2.5-16 well, they were so fast back in the day. Certainly a good memory from the early days of German high-performance cars.
