Had a 91 300E, bought at 186k with burned up motor.
Put a used motor in it. Drove 55k in 2.5 years---great car, could have driven it another 10 years.

Got a line on a 1990 300CE--105k miles--
bought it on the spot, sold the sedan to my brother(Tech in our shop, he has 2 kids, I have none)

A year later--sedan is pushing 260k. Still going strong.

What do I like best about the coupe---?

1. BRAKES-- big, beefy suckers, same as most 129's- 4 piston caliper-
gotta love it.
2. Power-- never a complaint with the 103, but more is better

Drawbacks--
1. gotta borrow a truck to go to Home Depot.
2. Upgraded stereo in 91 sedan.

Regrets-- zero
