200?
Either I am missing something, but I never heard of a 200E??? I heard of a E320, 280, 300E, 400E, 500E, but no 200? I might be wrong.. maybe someone else can post to this thread. I know there was a 180E or 190E before the 300's were made. Well, whatever, maybe someone else knows. I am going to look this up....

The W124 200 was a european model available with either the 109bhp Strongberg carb, the 200E with 122bhp injection or the E200 with 136bhp and twin over-head cam.
The available gear boxes were 4-speed manual, 4-speed auto, 5 manual, 5 speed auto and a close-ratio 5 speed manual although I think this may have been only available on the larger engined cars. Everything was an option on these euro cars so its possible to find winder windows and non-power steering.

Thanks heckflosse, now accord can breathe easier. It is European- thats why I never heard of it.
For lilzneb...
the G320 came before the G500's. Back before Mercedes sold the G500's (about a year ago) in dealerships, there was only one place in north america to buy the g-wagens. It was at a place called Europa in Santa Fe, NM. The sold about a 100 a year. They were also more expensive then, costing about $130,000 instead of the $70,000, so the old G's have depreciated greatly. If you don't know what a G is, go to www.mbusa.com and click on "Models" and select G500. They all the look the same, the design hasn't changed since like the 90's and been basically the same since like the 80's.
