Haha, I was in Jacksonville about a month ago picking up a 1987 300D. I was on the interstate with the Benz on a trailer and I saw a nice Blue W123 as well!

I really must be off my rocker for not catching that one!!
I thought it was some new-fangled something that I was not aware of

Yep....now that I have my MB, I notice the others on the road. Also passed a 123 wagon in the early am...young girl driving it. Seem to keep noticing more and more. I really wish I had stopped that guy in the blue 123...that car looked brand new.
