Keep & Restore '95 E320 -- or Replace with '02 E320

I have a mechanically excellent '95 E320 but am noticing small to medium paint blisters covering rust where metal window and trim clips meet the underlying sheet metal. Otherwise, I have no issues with the car and love the body style.

I am wondering whether it makes good sense to keep it and spend, say, $4K-$5K on paint/body work and minor mechanicals; or just spend about $9K on a clean '02 E320.

Suggestions?
