Since theres so many variations of the W123's, between the years, and euro/US parts I just figured I'd see which combinations people liked the best. If you could order it now from the factory how would it look. Just a random fun thread.
I'd have to say a darker colored W123 sedan, Black, Red or Gray, with 3 piece euro bumpers, painted hubcaps, the US spec headlights with clear fogs, chrome cowl vents, badge deleted trunk lid, and the checkered black cloth interior.

Love the Euro much better then the US-DOT. also love the black MB-tex with maybe a dark or light blue exterior. With maching hub caps. (i hate cleaning those rims) Manual rear windows and poer fronts. Manual sunroof. Euro full covered headlights(if we could even have those). hopefully a 617 either N/a or with the turbo with a 5 speed.


yea that would be sweet

AMG 280E.. AMG everything.. I Want the W123 Hammer... I know its not diesel but. damn... its soo hot.. It would be black on black on black

blacked out grill and penta's. Lowered and stuff... man it would be sweet

In other words - mine. And yes, it's my favorite w123 too. TheDon, buy mine and give it a good home, would you?

yep that would be the least ugly 123 (apart from the spoiler)

I am going this route now, no pentas but I am really liking the ACT's that I picked up. 2" MPL gives it a deep dish look almost. My car is grey and I am leaving the chrome chrome for now but grill is def going black (chrome included). Finding the AMG body kit is pricey.........

Silver 1985 300TD with Euro Bumpers, AMG front spoiler, the early flat five spoke monobloc AMG wheels 16x7 front and 16x8 rear with some Michelin Pilots, intercooler, heated seats, later Becker stereo with a CD changer, third seat, trailer hitch, red leather interior, no rub strips on the roof, only the racks, and a five speed.

There is nothing like dreaming. Now I have a W124 wagon I want to modify. It is so timeless looking that it looks just as good today as it did when it was new. I also think the OM603 is a better engine for modifying.

Ditto, But in a CE coupe, and definately five speed, and the largest, most powerful V-8 available, with Full power everything, and all both Mercedes, and AMG, and oh, what the heck, Renntech, had to offer for the car. I want everyones performance mods, on an AMG EURO COUPE. Going to be building just that, out of my 82 280CE Euro, I need parts though. I want the wheels...I love those 5 star wheels..The air dam, all of it..WOW!!!

how much you want for it I would consider taking out a loan for that beast... but alas I cant drive stick

LEARN!!!
if you want one of these babies, going auto is like driving in reverse all the time.
a stick makes a performance vehicle a PERFORMANCE vehicle.
really, it's worth it to learn to drive a stick. you are young, get a stick car and thrash it.
you will understand in no time how to drive a stick.

I don't have a W123, but if I did it seems it would have to be blue.

it looks like you need a 123 to ease the transition between your oldest and the middle one.
nice 124wagon!

I like the look of my euro 123wagon. I would like the round euro lights, and manual rear windows. 60/40 split with rear seat and headrests.
more power would be nice. it's nice no badges on the back.
the shadow silver paint is also cool, almost gold.
