Thanks for all the input everyone with your help I have decided not to pursue THANK YOU hahaha and on that note not to pursue the 4matics and wagons in the future because of the HS and Transfer case issues they tend to have especially at high mileage so I'll have my heart set on a w124 300E manual for my future Mercedes

Also the midnight sun comment cracked me up LOL
