Background Story of this 1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG

Overview of 1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG For Sale by Owner

Now here’s a truly one of a kind car that you can get your hands on right now. This 1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 DTM is based on the W202 generation of C-Class which ran between 1993 and 2000, but it’s heavily been customized for SEMA 2025 to debut the current seller’s V2 W202 DTM bodykit. The current owner says that the entire bodykit is carbon fiber and manufactured by his company. Notably, he says that the car uses a special coilover kit that’s been developed by YSR, unlike other builds that use air suspension. Impressively, it’s claimed that as a result of this, the typical air suspension issues are absent, and the ride quality is like any other modern sports car, stiff but not uncomfortable. All that, plus a rebuilt 4.3-liter V8 and many upgrades make this a fine car for someone who wants the only one of something available in the automotive scene.

Exterior and Interior

This 1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 DTM looks stunning with its aforementioned body kit, its two-tone white and black paintwork, and large silver alloy wheels. The car is instantly identifiable as a W202 C-Class as its base too so nobody will try to claim that it’s a kit car or some unknown foreign thing. The interior of this 1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 DTM remains stock with features such as seating for five adults, climate control, power windows and Mercedes-Benz branded radio with cassette player. But its been reupholstered in a fetching Porsche Riviera blue and white theme to match the overall outrageous factor of this car. The leather is reportedly imported from Italy.

Engine

This 1998 Mercedes-Benz C43 DTM packs a rebuilt 4.3-liter V8 that’s also been given a host of upgrades. These include new timing chains, valve cover gaskets, water pump, resurfaced heads, new head bolts, new O-rings, a new oil pan seat kit, and more. There’s a 6-speed manual transmission and a Quaife limited-slip differential sending drive to the rear wheels. Then, you’ve got a big brake kit, a Valvetronic exhaust system with custom center-mounted exit, and the aforementioned upgraded suspension. All these make for a show car that’s pretty nice to drive as well, which can’t be said of most show car builds.

2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 Convertible

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$239,999

One of the most interesting and true-to-original modern muscle cars has got to be the third-generation Dodge Challenger. When it debuted in 2008, the American public were thrilled because here was a car that looked like it came from the golden era of muscle cars – the Sixties! Yet, it also had modern elements to its look, an up-to-date passenger cabin, and a slew of modern, punchy engines, including, of course, V8s. The Challenger in this form would be made right up until 2023, assembled in Brampton and always made as a two-door notchback coupe. But hang on, convertibles do exist. Yes, we’ve got a 1 of 1 build by Droptop Customs, in the form of this 72-mile 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 Convertible. Indeed, this is one special car that’s definitely a collector’s piece but who’s to say you can’t enjoy it? If you absolutely must own this machine, contact us ASAP because it lives in Boca Raton, Florida. Oh, and we must casually mention that it’s got 1,025 horses under the hood.

2014 BMW 328i xDrive Wagon F81 M3 Touring Tribute

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$105,000

This build goes far beyond cosmetic modification. The F31 Touring chassis was never offered in the United States as an F80 M3 wagon, making this “F81 M3 Touring Tribute” a conceptual recreation of what BMW enthusiasts have long wanted: an M3-powered long-roof. Starting life as a 328i xDrive, the car has been transformed mechanically and visually to reflect M3 Competition character, combining practicality with serious performance intent. With over 61,000 miles, it reflects a properly used and developed enthusiast project rather than a static showpiece.
