Great auto
This is the 4th MB I have owned in 20 years. Only 22,500 miles and it is a CPO car. Extended warranty until 137,500 miles removes the questions of reliability. The 3 years of maintenance is also a relief. I let the first owner take the depreciation expense and purchased the car at roughly 1/2 of the original price. The P1 and sport package add value to the car and when in the sport mode. There is a great difference in the handling. I have averaged 24.7 mpg on my 10 mile trips to the office. I got to 27 on a 45 mile trip at conservative speeds. The engine is a weak link on the car. It needs 40 more hp to compete with other cars in this segment. However, it is fine for a touring or commuter auto. I would surely consider this auto when the next purchase is needed for the family.

Exceptional car.
Great car for the first month I have had it. Bought a car with the premium 2 package, still don't know everything it does, but so far it virtually drives itself. Great car, but expensive for a used auto. Bought it because my first Mercedes was great, had a bad experience with other German brands.

Really enjoy the ride and creature comforts.
Harmon Karden sound system is awsome. Panorama sun roof and heated seats make for a nice ride. Back-up camara, led running lights, Sirius satelite radio and 6 cd changer make for a pleasurable drive. Love the car so far.

Very nice car....with some quirks :)
Good reliable car with some weird quirks - for example if you own the latest ipod, it won't charge via the connector and the Comand system seems to forget that it needs to advance the song name on the screen when the actual song advances on your ipod!

It's all about the drive
I have owned five Mercedes Benz automobiles and my most recent purchase is a silver E350 coupe. This coupe is the most beautiful car I have ever owned. The styling turns heads at traffic lights and strangers have rolled down their windows to compliment the car. As with all the Mercedes I have owned, the car is bank vault solid and extremely well engineered. All the driving contols are logically placed and are intuitively operated. The ride, handling and performance reflect the German passion for driving on both the high-speed autobahn and the curves of the Black Forest. If you have never driven a Mercedes, I would strongly recommend a test drive. You will be impressed by the build quality of the car and the attention to every detail, but most significantly you will enjoy driving the car - and isn't that what is most important?

MB got it right
Almost everything about this car is superb. The exterior design is just beautiful, and the interior feels far more luxury than other comparable cars (the S5, e.g.). For the price, it's a no-brainer. To get asthetics and beautiful and high-quality interior on a powerful engine with good suspension you could easily have paid a few $10-$20k more. To list some downsides to the car: perhaps the weight (it seems a bit heavy and probably hurts the 0-60 time). That however, makes it a great cruising car and feels more sure in the rain. The other is the traction control. I'm not sure what MB could do (maybe some wider/sticker tires or make it 4 matic), but often times when you really want to punch it the traction control light blinks, telling you there's not enough traction for the full power to be let out. It's kind of a downer. One can always turn it off, but when throttling it down curvy back roads, I want full power when I press the gas, but then want the computer help back when a turn comes up. The bottom line is I'm in love with it, and everyone who sees it, or better yet, rides in it, is won over immediately.

Great Car!
This car has it all. Smooth ride, great handling, good gas mileage (for size), solid and safe. We have the 4matic which gets you everywhere you want to go in bad weather. Car is just the right size, not to big but not small. Thinking about getting another for myself, can't get this one away from my wife, she loves it!

Best Mercedes Ever
I was torn between the E and S class but decided the S was a bigger car than I wanted. The E class is just the right size and the styling is the best Mercedes has ever produced. The car has world class comfort, luxury and performance. Pricier than the Japanese luxury cars but the German engineering is well worth the extra money. One ride in this amazing vehicle will make your decision very easy.
