try ebay US. i recently picked up a set for $1100 shipped. just have to look out for a good buy i guess. took me a while to find a decently priced set.
-
good luck with the search. pretty expensive to buy new.
-
Defintely not for low 30's but 38K+ is very likely. good luck on the sale.
-
It defintely does to me, although in saying that i did come from a mazda originally. Its not so much a big deal in the 250 but in a car like the 350 and the F when u plant your foot down u get pinned to your seat and the motion of pushing up to change up seems awkward to me. But at the end of the day, its whatever ppl are comfortable with. Mod just there for those like myself who like it reversed. also pm'd u for thoughts on CX-5.

Just stumbled across the pic on my phone as i was cleaning it up and stumbled across it so thought i'd share. Anyway, see pic, but just a simple case of cutting the blue and red wire and reconnecting them switched around (the blue to red and red to blue). Disregard the yellow wire being cut. Just a case of me cutting the wrong wire. After thats done it will be down to change up a gear and up to downgear. I've found thats more natural during enthusiastic driving lol. Hope thats of use to some ppl. BTW: If you don't know what you're looking at please don't attempt it as i will not be held responsible for any damage you do to your own car.

not trying to be a know it all but info just for your reference. after much teasing and persuading by ilvs1004s i'm back in the market for a IS350 and i've found that even at 44k you may struggle to sell as ive recently seen a F-Sport with same milage purchased for $47k and theres a currently a Sports Luxury model going for $50k which i'm contemplating. just don't like the colour thats all. but other than that its my pick atm. Also the new IS is just around the corner so you may find ppl are holding out as from what ive seen it certainly does look extremely impressive. if you do decide to sell around the high $30's mark pm me.

yeah have to agree with ilvs1004s on this one. getting sick of seeing the constant reposts of old questions which have been answered so many times on multiple threads. theres also another post asking about intakes, which again have been covered so many times. just do a search, it's a hello of a lot quicker than waiting for replies that aren't gonna come as the regulars are getting sick of the answering the same questions over and over again!

lol dont think your searching hard enough there mate there alot of issues on mercs in general esp around the electric areas engine is awsome but rest of the cars quality is questionable 2 years wrranty vs 4 years? lol dont think your searching hard enough there mate there alot of issues on mercs in general esp around the electric areas engine is awsome but rest of the cars quality is questionable 2 years wrranty vs 4 years? yeah have to say the same. love euro cars for their handling and steering feel. awesome fun to drive however will have to say i would never own one either due to the long term reliability issues. cars no good if it ain't moving, and after a few hiccups it doesnt matter how many kw's, how nice it handles, etc etc is....... wouldn't mind too much if it was a used vehicle and was good value but definitely would never buy a brand new euro car. just too unreliable. been bitten now twice shy. to top if off mercedes service is absolute crap. i've walked into lexus on random occasions for various reasons sweating like a pig in summer and still get first class service no matter if ive met them before or someone i've met for the first time. mate of mine who swears by euro cars also got done. it was a constant arguement at the pub. euro vs japanese until he bought a brand new golf and before he drove out the driveway there was a glitch with the electronics and he had to wait 2 weeks to pick up his brand new car again. as bad as i felt for him i couldn't help myself, but i did have to say i told u so. granted thats an extreme case but as ilvs stated, there track record for electronics reliablity is crap, and to top it off the parts are expensive!

I had this done a while back on my own car and confirm it is a PITA install and there is an issue with the seal. Had it professionally done at HiTech Exhausts in Darlinghurst and they had to do the job twice with no success and a continued leak. I am in no way saying this place is bad, as it is a very reputable store and could possibly be just the person who did the work but that is my experience. Went to Castle Hill exhaust as they have done work on my cars previously. Didn't go there originally as its far from where i live but i should have. They fixed it up within 10 minutres and no further dramas. Can't recommend them highly enough so good to hear you guys could possibly be using them.
