This is Mercedes-Benz's REAL M5 competitor before the E39 variant even came out. The other, quite-common AMG model, the E55, pales as more of a Cadillac Seville STS and Audi S6 Plus killer, rather than a full-on M5 competitor.

W210 is also one of the ugliest Mercedes designs. I'm not sad only so few were made.
