I am picking the car up in about 3 hours. So I will post some pitcures later today or tomorrow.
After reading the "E-Class Owner's Bible", I realized that the coupe I am getting has the "Sportline" package. The backseat is for only 2 people, with a wood center console in the middle. It also has the shade for the back window.

I didn't inquire about "sport lines" specifically. Again I didn't realize that was what I was buying. I only assumed all the E320 coupes were that way. Anyways, when calling the Classic Center, I word my question as such, "....... I own a '94 E320 Coupe and would like to know how many of them were imported into the U.S." She asked for my vin#, asking for just the last 8 digits. I gave them to her, she asked me to hold on. She came back on, asked for my name to "up date their records", put me on hold again. Then she came back on the line and said "there were 825 of them". That was the extent of the conversation. So, since she asked for the vin, which I assume would indicate that it is a "Sportline" that when she said 825, I would only presume that woud mean only 825 of them.
