The W124 was gangsta. I loved and still love the exterior, it was pure perfection.

Re: HUGE Mercedes E36 AMG W124 Comparison (Sedan, Estate, Coupe and Convertible)

Awesome article, thanks! The R129 and the W124 are my favorite Mercedes-Benzes of all time! It is amazing that they were still making W124 Cabriolets in 1997!

I want the Coupe or Cabrio here. I still think I'd prefer a E500 to the the E36 Sedan though.

Definitely the E500 because it is such a legend and because it looks like every other W124 to the person who can't tell the difference (enlarged fender flares etc.). A wolf in sheep's clothing.

But I'd be equally happy with an E36 AMG. The 300E was often praised for its combination of economy and power, so I can imagine that an E36 AMG will be just as economical while at the same time delivering a more thrilling driving experience.

Re: HUGE Mercedes E36 AMG W124 Comparison (Sedan, Estate, Coupe and Convertible)

Nice article....i must say that im the happy owner of two rare cars...W124 E36 AMG coupe 1995 with 68 000 km and E36 W124 Cabriolet 1996 with 55 000 km!

In Amg they said to me that there was 200 w124 E36 built and less than 10% was coupe or cabriolet...

Just keeping them in my collection and drive them in special occasions....and now im trying to get E60 Amg W124...

You can see my cars here Mercedes-Benz Forum Hrvatska my nick in that forum is E36c_AMG...

Best regards...
