How may 300D 2.5 Turbos cames to the US?
Like the title says, I was curious if anyone had a precise, or even ball park number of how many of the W124 300D 2.5 Turbos came to the states between 1990 and 1993.
Thanks guys.

Sorry, don't know. All I know is that on the West Coast they are extremely rare, not having been sold in CA. I've spotted TWO 2.5Ts besides my own in Los Angeles, and know of two others here that I haven't seen.

I saw one at the junkyard today, and with what others have said so far, I'd say there is at least more than 10

I've only seen a couple in WA, not including mine. I have seen a couple here in New York, but I don't have a car here (yet) so these are just sidewalk observations. Not sure on the numbers, but I do remember reading something about them a while back. Does 10,000 over the four year run sound reasonable?

I'd love to see the numbers for the '87 190D Turbo also.

Attached are the production numbers for the 190D-2.2, 190D-2.5 & 2.5T, and 300DT & TDT.
Note that the numbers indicate total production, so they may not be representative of how many were delivered to North America. If you're curious about this kind of stuff, consider getting a copy of this book to look through. It has all sorts of specifications for every single model of Mercedes - weight/dimensions, engine info, performance, fuel economy, prices, transmission gear ratios, etc. It's about 300 pages, with at least 1 car per page. Enjoy! ![]()
