I definetely agree. The C140 falls in the same category as the 350/450 SLC. Cute cars, but their purpose?

I think their purpose of existance is just to fatten the wallets of M.B., as they charge ridiculous premiums for the coupes over the sedans.

By the way, talking about the answer to a question that nodoby asked, I have the brochure for a special body converter which builds W140 STATION WAGONS!!! This W140-T is very cute (for those of us who love wagons) and it even comes standard with an ELECTRIC FOLDING REAR BENCH SEAT which can be lowered from the front dash by just pushing a bottom.

You could order any W140 sedan (from the S280 to the S600, short of long wheelbase), with the options you wanted, and then the conversion specialists would charge you a cool $60,000.00 to get your W140-T.
