ken,
mucho thanks
for the info
big big help...
i do think i'm going to lean towards the 97' E420
even though i'm such a coupe lover at heart...
ugh
thanks again...
any thoughts on the 97 e420?
i've been hearing it's supposed to be by far the best benz in the e-class line up (with the exception of the ce's as they are a class of their own)

thanks
