I was driving home yesterday and say a MB with Pennsylvania plates that had "e300" written on the left side of the trunk and the word "diesel" written on the right side. Has anyone else ever heard of one of these? I've seen a 2.5 diesel and a 350 diesel, but never this. Are they decent cars? Are the motors and build quality as good as the 123 models? What years did they sell them in the US? Any info would be appreciated.
