This is the 2011 E-Class sedan with the sport package in obsidian black with grey interior. After some initial problems with the airmatic suspension (replaced rear air springs) and rattles in the rear of the vehicle (replaced seat belt rollers and roller blind system), the vehicle is now unbeatable in style, comfort and performance.

My 4th Mercedes. I love it. Made the mistake of trading my '08 in on a 2011 BMW 535i. It was a dog! Traded back to 2011 Mercedes E550 Sport. No comparison. E550 more luxurious, just as sporty, better styling, much more comfortable, motor is much smoother, and transmission shifts much much smoother.

Beautiful Design; Initial Problems Resolved

I bought this car because of its truly beautiful lines. The car is a typical Mercedes---solid, airtight, good fit and finish. My car had some initial issues with rough shifting and Mercedes was able to correct the problem to my satisfaction. Overall, I think Mercedes builds solid, well designed cars and this model is a respectable entrant in the mid-size luxury sedan category.

Great performance, can keep up with modern BMWs and more. The comfort with the airmatic isn’t very noticeable but the adjustable aspect of the suspension is a nice feature to use occasionally. No problems with the car whatsoever besides the actual airmatic system which is known for faults (just do your maintenance people you’ll be fine). The interior could be better, hard plastic in visible areas as opposed to BMW and Audi of the same gen it’s lacking in modernization and mild quality but if anything just buy an S-Class. The presafe system as well as the adaptive cruise control and non visible aids make me confident I’ll come out in one piece if an accident were to even occur. The technology is good for the year. With the price you can get them for today I will say my purchase was completely worth it.
