1992 would probably have R-134a, I can't remember for sure
92 300D has the old R-12(I used to own one)...also I think the 2.5 is a quieter engine than the old 3 liter..more civilized all in all

also most of the 2.5's have tex rather than leather like the 300D...so the interiors of many will look like new at 200K...also most didn't have the headlight washers...but a few DID have dual airbags(which meant that you gave up the glove box) and little things like a different radio and updated interior trim/woodwork

mileage on the 2.5 is incredible though...I used to get 35-36 MPG driving at 75-80 MPH...also since was toward the end of the cycle I think these cars tend to be(if taken care of) pretty bulletproof
