I would think the Renntech mods the seller describes would raise power
output across the rev band, so maybe the speedo IS accurate.

Dave, is it true what he says about all 500E's, even early ones, coming with
R134a A/C from the factory?  First I've heard of that.  Seems odd for a '92
car.

That was about the cutover date, IIRC.  It would make some sense that
they'd ease into the switchover, and do it first on some sub-model of
the line.

My 92 W140 has R134 from the factory.

On another topic Dave, why in the hell did you show me that My
401K hates you

We were huge John Paul fans during the 80' and have dozens of photos
of their IMSA Porsches.
