A quick search shows that all E500 wagons were 4matics.

I don't need 4matic, and I don't want the air suspension.

My mom had a 211 E500, and the air suspension went out under warranty. The compressor burned up and appeared to catch on fire. They replaced the air pump and the front struts.

The bill was one I'd never want to pay out of pocket.
