The temperature in my 94 E320 started to stay a little below 80 F on cold mornings, replaced the thermostat and now it is always above 80 F and gets close to 100 F in city traffic.

I did get a new thermostat and it sounds like my car is doing the same thing your car did. I guess my old thermostat was just not working very well, but I think I like the idea of running a little cooler. My car has not reached 100, so I guess I am in the safe operating temperature range. I just liked it better when it was a little cooler.
Thank you for your information. It makes me feel a little better knowing that it is probably normal, although I still wish it were 5 degrees cooler.
Thanks again for your reply

You feel you love them too much, or you are just too stupid to know any better.
