What kind of newer Mercedes can you buy for $13K Canadian?

Would that pick up a '94 C220 with some kilometers on it?

The Mazda is a reasonably attractive car, but why not look at a '94 or so Lexus ES 300? As you know, it's just a gussied up Camry (and those are fairly reliable, except the late 90s ones with the engine sludging issue)....

I'd research the Millenia's reliability (that Miller Cycle V6; is it durable) before jumping on one.
