While the angular front end on the W212 wasn't my favorite, probably in the bottom along with the bugeye W210 (sorry @rockstar143 ). I'd gladly have a S/C V8 E55 wagon

That might be one of the best looking W203 wagons I've seen.
Shame they were only available in C240 guise, to my knowledge, in the US.
Also, that W123 Would love to find a 300TD, but they're all $$$$ in decent shape.
^ RS, lighting? Thought yours was gold? Looks more matte & some green tint to it.

it's dip...and let me tell you, the gun is not easy to get to spray evenly and wide...
and peeling the trim after is tough...you have to use a blade to create a divide where it bridges.
from 10 feet away it looks good and I'm happy with it...we made a deal that if I still have it in 2 years
we will do a real paintjob on it. I did grind away any of the known issue rust around the edges and windows,
treated it, bondo'd and primered so it'll be almost ready to go once I pull the dip off.
Part of the reason why I bought it was that he wanted to make videos of it and I figured it would make it cooler so why not.
The 5 Series and E Class wagons from that era were sweet.
Someday, an RS6 Avant+
