Exactly what I said to my wife. The car is an 85 at the very best (last year produced) and it was driving 75-80 MPH down the highway like any of us were. I still crave a W123 and now that my wife likes them it sort of gives me hope.
I guess I don't think too much about running my two cars on the interstate. You would have gotten a kick out of me in my '85 W123, my friend Rich in his '84 W123, and Manny in his '84 W201 all cruising together on Interstate 10 between Tucson and Phoenix. We kept an 80mph pace, except the one time Manny decided to test his top speed!

The picture in my signature is from when we made it safely back to Tucson!
