The 190E has a "sport sedan" feel, very nice balance in twisty roads, excellent turning radius, fits well in smaller parking spaces (width). The M103 six is so smooth in that smaller chassis and you still get that "bank vault" feel when you close the door.
What he said. We have both and this seems to be pretty spot on. The 124 is a great cruiser. I must say that I am not a huge fan of the seats in the 124 compared to my 201. I can sit in my 201 for hours and not feel any fatigue. After a short time in the 124 my back starts to hurt a bit. Other than that I have no complaints about either.
