My sister has a 190E 2.3, it is a fun little car. I have a 300E....the M103 engine has way more shove than the M102, but it also uses a lot more fuel. It'd be a tough choice between them for me. The 190 is small for sure, but is also very sporty. I'd say if I came across a 190E manual vs a 300E auto, I'd take the 190. Otherwise I'd go 300E. Ideally I'd like a 400E though.
