    I got a ride from a friend in one of these in 1992, on my 18th birthday. V12 hotness.



    I spent a lot of time driving one of these in 1992.

    Congrats!

    Here's my old car, '92 S4, complete with a list of various modifications... and 215k miles. Pulled like a god damn freight train, and oddly enough dead reliable and solid.

    the bike that pretty much got me into motorcycles....local dealership had one when I was in the process of getting my license. Saw it and right away knew I wanted one. I have since owned 2.

    "Yeah, when do we go for a ride!?!?"

    Congrats on 20 years in the US!

    Of cars sold new in 1992, many of my favorites could have been found at a Mercedes-Benz dealer. Here are two:

    Mercedes-Benz C140





    Mercedes-Benz W124
