E500 Wagon

Was the E500 wagon built with no 4matic option? or was it only available as a 4matic.

In the US, all E500's were built with 4matic only. E320's were either RWD or 4matic, and E350's were 4matic only.

I believe the AMG wagons were all RWD FWIW... If you are looking to buy one with RWD that might be the way to go.
