You should edit your first post to include 1993 models, which have the same M104 engine, but didn't get the badge change.

1993 300E's have the same 3.2 liter M104 engine. In the rest of the world, they were badged as 320E's, which takes away from the confusion.

1993 W124's with the 2.8 liter M104 engine were badged as 300E 2.8. This engine and chassis shares the same problems as the 300E (3.2) and E320 models.
