I tell you, I drove the 420 the other day. It sure is nice to have a nice smooth gas v8 every once in a while. While it does have plenty of power, it feels like a 240D compared to my 560SEL or my 380SE with the 5.0 euro motor in it.

My '87 420SEL gets about 19MPG mixed commute. My wife's 560SEL gets about
17MPG and I would gladly pay the fuel cost to drive the rocket ship.
