To me this is a HOT looking sedan

Man, I love the looks of the black and grey.

For a 95 that looks that good, the price is pretty low. I'd definitely be checking that out if I was in the area

Hmm, I wonder if I could get some late model W124 door trim and bumpers for my 87. That stuff makes a world of difference WRT looks.

The body cladding went on the 124 in '91, the 201 in '91 or '92.

Speaking of 124s, are there two different hood/grills used in the 124 series?

Look, here's that '95:


And now look at this one:


Both 124s but with different hoods. I personally like the '95 style better, with the small strip of hood on each side of the grill...like a 126, 140 or 202.

I'm going to guess that the other picture is one of a pre '94 124.
Oddly enough, the stitching on that E300D looks to be of an older vintage, unless that was some sort of option.

Nice car, the only downside is for that price you can get a gas version with well under 100k miles. The cars are the same so a lot less body and suspension wear...

606 is a darn fine engine, much more fun than an M104 IMHO. But the M104 is not without its charms, silky idle, rev happy, nice scream. 606 sounds better at the stops IMHO.
