A beautifully balanced machine

I'm just the opposite of the mid-life crisis guy. Traded my 2008 red Corvette for what has to be the best lux/sports auto available. This car is so so smooth & sleek with a superb build quality both inside and out. Strangers are complementing my new ride at every stop or so it seems. This is our third Benz (wife on her second one, my first) and by far the best vehicle. I tested Jag's XF, BMW's 535 (powerful), and the Lexus offerings. I fell in love with the E350. Sienna Black with Black/Beige leather and designo Burl Walnut trim.

I've had this car for 4 months now. I am still learning it's limits and so far they're beyond my abilities (which aren't bad) I have owned several performance vehicles, Cobra Mustangs, a Subaru STI to name 2. I never thought I'd own a car that I liked better than the STI and I was wrong. I had an extended rental with a '13 M5 with $30K in upgrades, claimed to have 720HP and this car performs as good as that one with a much better ride. The comfort and luxury doesn't seem like it goes with the speed and handling but I am getting used to it for sure. The manual shift isn't fast enough so I just leave it in automatic sport mode. I think the W211 still looks better than the last 2 generations of MB E class. I have a Toyota FJ as a daily driver that I love but I can't stay out of the E63 because it's so fun to drive. I just hope it can hold up to my level abuse because I drive it. NOTE: MY CAR IS NOT A WAGON. That was the only trim selection they allowed. It's a 4 door sedan.

not practical

Little disappointed with the car. I own a 2005 gs300 and that car shifts, rides and seems way better than this 60k e class. I was very disappointed. Burning smell coming from vents, car shifts strange, non-digital dual climate control, cheap interior, dash is not bright, no H.I.D headlights for 60k, Navigation is Not user friendly. Cruise control gets mistaken for turn signal. Too many unnecessary features. Does not ride as good as my 05 lexus.

Quality and craftmanship are the norms in this new 2008 E Class. Bluetooth should standard, rather than being required to purchase a connection module. Upgrading to P2 package well worth the investment. Handles exceptionally at high speeds, as well as cornering. The sport model is also a plus. Pick up and performance is excellent.

The minute the car was driven into my garage by the dealership I was blown away. Next to the 2008 black M6 and even the cl550, the E63 is absolutely beautiful. Interior styling beautiful, simple, functional and elegant. Idrive is outdated and difficult to figure out, especially when you have different models of BMW. I Love the analog clock next to the speedo, even more so than the faux television screen display on the cl. AMG rocks over the M, just listen to the exhaust.

I bought this vehicle last week and have driven 500 miles to date. Saturday I drove some rugged mountain roads and found the car ro handle great. Mileage was good but not enough experience to judge accurately. The seats are not as comfortable as the Lexus I traded and the cabin is smaller. Leg support could be improved. Like lthe ride and handling.
