i remember when the 190/300e debuted, just shook my head at all the plastic and cheapness compared to past models
I felt similarly about the 124 at it's introduction, but once I sat in the drivers seat I was impressed. All the plasticy stuff makes trim items MUCH more difficult to service than the 123 cars.

Since I do all my own work, I find the 123 cars superior to the 124 when the wrenches have to come out. Sitting in the drivers seat is another story. Driving a 124 is a vastly more satisfying experience than driving a 123.
