"This beauty, was a rare find, according to my MBZ mechanic. I have owned 5 MBZ, from the SL to the SLC, C Class, and now the E 350. It had been on a lease and had only 18K miles. Not a scratch on it, and my family and friends could not believe it was not new. The interior was spotless with no wear anywhere. I agree that the Command center is difficult and confusing to use, but I plan on studying the comprehensive manual to learn what would benefit me the most without being distracting. This car was exactly as listed on Cars.com, and I am now using them to search for a car for my son. My neighbor was so impressed, that he is now using the site."

"I have a 2008 Siena black paint option, it is a stunning paint. In the day it is a deep black, at night the red metallic flakes in the black paint is brilliant. Performance is enough to shame many super-cars. Very comfortable and quiet until you lay into the throttle. Engine revs like a race engine with half the mass. Big 6 piston brakes are a match for the engine. 7 speed auto is pretty good, learns your driving habits quickly. Not as fast as a DSG but much better than most Torque converter units. Love this body shape & style. I think it is the most elegant of all the E class bodies (Except the 1st. AMG Hammer). I think it looks like an elegantly understated muscle car bulging at the seems. Interior is luxurious and comfortable for 4 passengers. The interior trim pieces feel a little delicate and creaky. Newer Mercedes have vastly improved the interior quality. The navigation system is hard to use so I don't even bother except for the map. Audio is decent with the 7.1 harmon kardon. If you use an Ipod make sure you use at least a 196 kbps or 256 kbps sampling rate. Makes a big difference in sound quality. I only have 25k miles on my car so reliability is still an unknown. From what I know of AMG engines and transmissions they seem to be very stout. And if you have to ask about gas mileage, don't bother looking at one. This is a pure muscle car wrapped in a Mercedes package. Best of both worlds."

"This car has more than ample power, which can be applied smoothly and still have the feel of a performance sedan. The handling characteristics are ample for a vehicle of this weight. The only issue so far is learning the nuances of the electronic controls, i.e. radio settings, nav. system . Just have to spend some time reading the manual ."

"I got this car from South Bay a month ago. It's 37K miles and with P1 premium package. Cars.com have very accurate list of available cars, so I did good comparison shopping before narrowing down to about 3 cars. I test drived all 3 of them, and decided to buy this one. So far so good. No one can tell how reliable they are within such a short period. But I got it as CPO vehicle, so it comes with 18 months warranty, plus I bought pre-paid service package. Hopefully this car can run many years to come. The car is excellent itself. Panaramic moonroof, navigation, nice 12 speaker sound system. Great exterior styling. Inside everything feels premium. I have been inside Lexus GS350, the E350 feels not as cushy, but I guess that's how German cars feel. The ride is very smooth, yet can be sporty if you want to."

Kathy's E Wagon

"Very pleased with this E class wagon, bought CPO in White Plains, NY. This is our second late model E class and we are very satisfied with both of them. The wagon is much smaller and more maneuverable than an SUV. It's more fun to drive but still offers the hatchback for extra storage. Rear seats are not big enough for adults, by any means, and the MPG's are not great. But car is all wheel drive and MB is the safest and best engineered car I have encountered."

"We love this beautiful luxury sedan that offers performance and reliability. We had a Mercedes in the past and then traded it in on another luxury car. We found that we missed the MB, and were very glad to find the restyled E350, which we both enjoy driving."
