Just saw an AMEX/DELTA Skymiles commercial that had the back end of a W116 in it. The back bumper hits a suitcase and it definitely a W116 body. Back bumper had those two jutting rubber pieces.

Cool to see. . .

I saw that commercial too. It was so quick that I couldn't tell if it was a w123 or 116, but I see now that it's a 116.
