John took the wife and I for a ride in his. Best accelerating thing I've been in for several decades that didn't have wings. Reminded me of a T-34C at takeoff power. Scary fast, plus great mpg. It isn't an Olds 442 or a GTO but those days are long gone.
That was an E320 CDI, he's looking at a '99 E300D. Different chassis and engine. The E300D has around 170HP and the CDI has 201HP. So the *peak* HP isn't all that different... the curve on the CDI has a little more area underneath it ;)
