Luxury and great mileage

We've driven several luxury cars and this one is our favorite it is super comfortable to be the driver or the passenger. Our gas mileage has been outstanding, often getting to MPG on our highway trips.

Best Riding Mercedes I have ever had!

This car looks great, the Interior is Plush but Sporty. Car run's GREAT. I drive 65 miles a day @ 80MPH smooth as a Baby's Bottom. This is a keeper :) I have taken it up to 128 MPH in the desert @ 3200 RPM had plenty More to go but did not want to push it ! Just a great car.

Everyone should own one!

Once you shut the door, it feels like you're in another world. The car feels so safe and personal that it seems like you are in their (Mercedes) world. I love the comfortable ride and the rich looking interior design. Everything about the car says quality, in and out!

E55 AMG - WOW!

I used to see these cars and think, hmm - fancy looking sedan... but WOW is this thing amazing! SO many gadgets, gizmos, and creature comforts to be had. The power is simply stunning, it's like driving Thor's Hammer - seriously fast and puts a smile on anyone's face :)

2005 Mercedes Benz E320 CDI

This is the most under rated car. I get 30 city MPG and 40 Highway MPG with this car. It handles well, drives well...looks like a $50k car but costs in the low 20s...Absolutely love it. They last forever if you spend the money on maitenance. With close to 400ftlbs of torque, this car accelerates like a high performance car. Love it!

We've Been Very Happy

We got this car in 2007 when it had only 11,000 miles on it; Previous owner was also a retiree who only used it when he came to Florida. It now has 36,000 miles; we are also retired and do not do a lot of driving. The car has performed very well. My only complaint is that the interior, a light tan, is subject to soil marks. They need to come up with another color or have a better way to protect the light trim from soil marks. We like this car very much. An excellent performer on the highway for long trips. Good power, decent gas mileage and very comfortable. We will buy a E Class 2010 if we can find one with low mileage.

E55 AMG

The supercharged 5.5L V8 in the E55 is a rocket. The performance is tremendous. I have owned (3) Corvettes including a 430 HP C6 and (2) Mustang GTs which all performed well, but don't have the supercharged punch of this AMG. This car destroys BMWs all over the road, leaving them wondering what happened. The E55 is not overly comfortable. It has all the bells and whistles anyone could want. The reliability @ 29,000 miles is good. Its a pleasure to drive although the front end feels a little sluggish at low speeds. When the power is applied, the car sits down low and goes whereever you point it. The fuel economy is fair to good, especially considering the power output. Its a drivers car, not for the faint of heart.
