It is gorgeous, stunning, thumbs up.... An admirer said “It is so sexy”... nothing not to like. It is overall a very good car, but, base engine can’t get out of its own way, must leave the transmission in Sport Plus just to be safe. My previous 2014 E350 gets the same mpg ..... very sad.... The 9 speed transmission is as graceful as a bull in a china shop... not smooth at all. Shifts hard. The rest of the car is all Mercedes. The quality of fit and finish is impeccable. The interior is a work of art. The lines, slopes contours are so attractive. The car really is incredible in that Mercedes way.... The car bases at $51,000, with vinyl interior, aka “MB-Tex”, and no navigation.... When one options up the base car, Package 2, upgraded wheels, metallic paint, amg package, and leather interior (1,600.00) now it’s $62,000.00. I bought it used with 200 miles, so a deep discount... My thoughts are Mercedes needs to go back to their roots “build it and they will come”. They are stuck just wanting to compete with everyone else. I’ve owned Mercedes for over 20 years, and I’m not certain there will be a next... Writing an update 18,500 miles into ownership, which will be over in 2 days.... when I pick up my new BMW... A piston “blew” at 18,000 miles ( motor rebuild), ride is horrible, interior starting to rattle, and just very disappointed in Mercedes Benz.... after 8 Mercedes (all new) since 1994 I’m leaving the brand... The positive is the warranty and dealer did a great job, no issues...

Gizmos far from intuitive. Ride harsh during normal highway driving.

Smooth, quiet ride as expected from Mercedes. Traded in a 2008 C 300 with 149,000 miles, expecting at least as much from this one.

Mpg 34hwy 25city Repairs none Mileage 26,000 miles This is my second Mercedes both have been great cars, but this coupe is beautiful, a flowing piece of art, smooth and nimble on the road, the back seats are unusable accept for something you throw back there like a jacket or the empty can of Dr Pepper. The gearshift I don’t like, but driving it down the back roads all is forgiven lol. I really like this car..and if you’re single or a couple you will too, don’t get one if you have kids and this is your only transportation..get some kinda 4dr.
