I don't know of any difference mechanically, but I know the stereo/sound/navigation system is different, and sure if that effects any tests, and I like you am thinking I could list them as 2003's.

Don't really need one for my 2004's since they are still under factory warranty for the next 3 and 4 years respectively, but would be fun to play with and make them do the "rodeo" suspension trick.

More needing to help diagnose the 94 S600 Coupe issues.

I think I will look and see if I can find some good buys on an MT2500 and then get the MB accessories for it.
