Who doesn't love cheap fun? Racing cars and going fast costs real coin, but this is DT where exceptions to the rule are welcome and encouraged! This 1998 C43 has been stripped of the AMG body kit and has bumpers from a similar year C220 so it looks entirely forgettable. Speaking of stripped, this C43 also has no interior aside from a race seat so this is not going to work as a Uber/Lyft vehicle. Under the hood, the 4.3 AMG M113 V8 is good for just over 300 hp when new, but the really hot ticket is to swap in the larger 5.4 350hp version of the same engine. The car still has the factory AMG suspension set up and massive brakes fitted to these models so it would likely be a competitive if uncommon choice for a budget race car. Find this 1998 Mercedes C43 for sale in Morris, CT for $1,500 via craigslist.
