I've definitely decided I like the US spec headlights better, so i just need to order new plastic headlight doors.
Whats wrong with the euro-glass ones?!

Oh I see! I'll have to find pix...
I've kindof done what you did and found me something for a daily driver that I've been wanting for a while. I used to have a 1986 diesel but now I gots a newer 1990 Mk2 jetta that I picked up tonight but this one is gas. The euro lenses are definately much classier and cleaner looking for this car...I think I'd go with the pair of round lights rather than the 4.

3,582 lbs for the turbo
Yeah, that's about what I found by googling "Mercedes W123 curb weight".
Actually, surprisingly light, given that a Chevy Malibu weighs about the same.
