The W124 platform was from another time, built in a different way. And Mercedes made very few of the fancy ones - the Sportlines, Cabrios, 500s, etc. Those cars have legitimate collector value. Everything after that was made under a new engineering & sales model, and there were very few limits in place. Tons of AMGs & Cabrios sold, anyone who wants one could have one. I'm sure it did wonder for Benz's bottom line (that and all Chrysler's cash) but doesn't do much to enhance the secondary market.
All the other European brands went through the same thing. Compare an E30 M3 to an E46 M3 or a 993 911 to a 997 911. It won't be until 2050 or so until anyone cares about cars from the aughts. We're just getting into the '70s now. :)
