Selling in Houston for son who moved to NYC

OMG I went from a MINI Cooper to this! How will I ever go back when this car sells? Love it, but unfortunately don't need a car now.

Did not live up to luxury car standards

I got a wagon because of transport needs. Converting back seats to loading was hard, both technically and physically. Had to unlatch a bar that was very bulky and heavy. GPS was cheap, backup camera too narrow to see things at corners. After a while little things (small plastic supports, leather corners, sun visor supports etc.) started breaking or malfunctioning. Things falling between front seat and center column were almost impossible to retrieve - supposedly a quarter fell in and derailed the track for the sliding Seat which got stuck, a repair estimated close to $1,000.-. Later, after a routine service, it had mysteriously self-repaired; one of many cheap and questionable dealer practices. Mercedes of San Diego.

It is the best car in every category

I have owned many cars in its class from American to European and Japanese. The E350 out shines them all by a lot. Its the finest car I have ever had.

Most enjoyable drive

I bought this car used a couple weeks ago (traded '08 E350 w/174k mi) to be used for work commuting. I have to say its the most enjoyable driving experience I've ever had. It had 104k miles on it when I got it and 500 miles later I have to say I am so happy with the performance of the car.

Beautiful, fun Mercedes convertible 4-seater

The Mercedes E550 Cabriolet is a beautiful, well-appointed, fun convertible for a road trip. It is fast and responsive, but it cannot be compared to a real sports-car performance at launch or while aggressively cornering through curvy roads. It is what it is—and I love it.

Very Reliable - Never Had a Major Problem

My Mercedes E Class 4matic has been 100% reliable from the day I drove off the new car dealers lot. With 55,000 miles, it looks and drives like a new car. It’s seating is very comfortable even on long drives.

Owned 3 years - Car was flawless. Great vehicle.

It was one of the best cars I have ever owned. Low cost to maintain also which is a surprise to most people. Simply maintained the oil changes and tires, wipers, etc. Really great car.
