93-95 E320 (300TE for 93), in my opinion, have a more powerful engine in them. Not glass smooth like the M103, but still amazing smooth. You'll have to find one that has had the head gasket replaced as the M103 and M104 engines had head gasket failures. On the 93-95 models, the wiring harness MUST be changed prior to purchase! If not, drop the car's price $1500 right there the harness alone costs around $1000 and if you don't do it yourself, right around $1500. You have/had a W124 before, so you know all about the A/C evaporator. They were all crap and would leak freon and cause you all sorts of problems. Dash has to be removed in order to change the evaporator. Very expensive job to get done elsewhere, if you do it yourself, it's not that expensive. Make sure the SLS suspension is functional. If not, it'll cause a bunch of weird suspension issues.

More will chime in..
