x2 on the gas 124. If you like the 124 already, an E320 will spoil you while still leaving you wishing for the diesel in the spring. Think an extra 100hp (ish) and cheaper fuel.

Personally, I liked my '95 with ASR, gives you true 4-wheel ABS and the traction control, really handy in slippery city traffic, be sure it has a new wire harness (as you probably already know). Many here are afraid of the ASR, so without is fine too with good winter tires.
