It looked like part of the front bumper was gone under the right corner. I had the same thing happen reversing across a pavement edge. I think the headliner is such a big item in terms of the value of the car. These are really good machines. The m119 is just great, electronics aside. My mechanic

Front bumper is OE but may need to be freshened up. According to the car’s history, it’s been pranged in the front twice and stolen once. All with the original owner. The first front end wreck was within a few hundred miles of delivery! Dealer appears to have done the work on both instances. No

Giving more thought to this it makes sense. It was the same way (and engine) with the W140s, too. This was about the time MB started messing with badging, too. -D > On Apr 24, 2020, at 7:24 PM, Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes > wrote: > > Both the 400e and e420 > Have the same 4.2L engine. >

In comparison, the 275k 1993 400E I had would do 130 mph before I chickened out, with some pedal still left. This one will probably go just as fast, or up to 160 mph if it’s got the later brain box in it. The last of these they raised the limiter to 160 mph from something like 135 mph or
