They are lighter, no airpump,

What function does the airpump perform, and how troublesome is it?
I drove my friends 93 300E yesterday, what a car! While I don't think it looks as nice as the old ones, it is just an awesome driving machine. I'd have to part with my Fintail and 108

, but it really is nice to keep up with traffic flows and do so in a quiet interior. I was not at all fatigued from my commute, whereas I always am.
I'm leaning towards a later model, I really would like the added pep of the first gear start, combined with the lazier highway revs. After 11 years of the 300D, I feel like I have a pent up thirst for speed going here.
Here in the Bay Area, there are 300E's for sale all the time, so I should be able to find a good condition model in the year desired.
