I bought a '98 when they first came out. There were only a couple of issues that we had with the car. The early fuel pumps were crap, we went through several of them. The wife got stranded a time or two as a result of this problem. Some of the 3.2L engines developed a problem with oil consumption. We ran synthetic oil through ours and changed it more often than most people and it still started to smoke a little. We unloaded it and bought a 2000 E320 wagon. That also started to burn a little oil eventually, so it got sold, too.

Read up on the problems these cars can have and see if you still want one. They are not cheap to fix.
