Tanner Romanos Mercedes Benz 190E 1989

The Mercedes 190E have a very unique body style compared to similar cars of that era. While the 190 has a very similar style to the e30 you don't generally see a lot of 190s in the area of the states im in. The 190 has quickly become my favourite car that I own.

Photographer: @Gingerbeardmanphoto

Im 25 years old, active duty military for the United States Air Force. I have been in the military for 7 years or so and have been all around the world a few times. I try my best to better myself and be there for my son and friends. I strive to better myself and my community by just being positive about the car scene and society as a whole.

What or who got you into cars?

My father took me to the New York auto show when I was 10. This was my first time seeing new models, and clean modified cars. I then attended any and all car-related functions and events, local meets, local shows, and events from all over the east coast. Now I modify cars and avidly participate in many shows and local events. Besides owning the 190e pictured above I have a 1985 RX7 FB that is currently in the works and a 2017 Passat that is waiting on wheels and coil-overs.

Why this car?

The Mercedes 190E have a very unique body style compared to similar cars of that era. While the 190 has a very similar style to the e30 you don't generally see a lot of 190s in the area of the states im in. The 190 has quickly become my favourite car that I own. 

 

What made you build this car?

I purchased this car with some slight modifications done to it already (wheels, and a slight drop). After seeing other builds from around the globe of the same car I knew that this would pop! So I’ve added camber arms, coilovers, and aftermarket headlights.

What does it feel like owning this car?

Owning this car is quite the experience. I usually get stopped every time I drive it. This car has actually helped me open up to my surroundings. These stops usually involve photos and lots of questions. So if you like attention this is the build for you. The camber alone gets a ton of attention let alone how low the car is.

What makes your car unique?

I personally have never seen a build like this. The camber combine with the white and gold paint pop! This is my favourite part standing out. the engine also sounds unique being a 2.6l inline-six. it’s peppy but not too fast.

Who did the work?

I’ve done 70% of the work on this vehicle myself. Dialling in the camber, headlight, coil-over install, and rear suspension and spring cut. the custom top hats were made by someone else.

Future Plans

I plan to convert the car to air ride, Damphammer wheels, full interior restore and swap the motor to a chevy ls3. I have been contemplating putting the pandem wide body kit on the car but haven’t made up my mind 100%.

Advice/Tips

Use the forums! that was one of the best assets I could have found. I recommend that for any car enthusiast. Read about your cars people! get to know the car and what other parts are interchangeable! Youtube was also a great help when it came time to figure out the best process to wire the headlights.

What do you get from the car scene?

Friends! I have met so many new great people I would have never imagined having in my life. From my photographer (gingerbeardman) to my best friend Corey. if it wasn't for the car scene I would not have these guys in my life and I consider them family. I know that sounds cliché but these guys have my back no matter what,

Dream car

My dream car... more like a dream garage. RX7 FD3, R33 GTR.
