I have to agree with you, Jim, about the Coupe being much nicer looking (and better proportioned) than the sedan. Although, I do love the way the sedan blocks everyone's field of vision when it appears down the street.

Brunos Sacco's definite masterpiece was the W124, no doubt about it. But the W140 being a legitimate spin-off of the W124, it is extremely gorgeous also (both, the coupe and the sedan).

To those who have heavily critized the slab sided look or overweight proportions of the W140 I just have one thing to say: drive one for a moth and will UNDERSTAND why it looks the way it does.

Anyway, the interior layout of the W140 (in both terms: design and quality) has no equal among M.B. cars or almost any other brand (few, but very few exceptions allowed).

Confidently in love with the W140, Armando
