Best all around convertible

2012 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E350 2dr Convertible (3.5L 6cyl 7A)

Year after year, the Mercedes E Class is the benchmark for the best all around convertible. Great prestige, performance, reliability, comfort, and room for 4 Adults. I’ve also got a 25 year old E320 like Tom Cruise drove in The Firm, which is a car you can keep for a lifetime. You can spend less for much less car and much more money for greater performance and prestige, but this car has a balance, which makes it the best all around full size convertible for the price.

Road side service is overloaded with calls asking to call back unless it is an emergency. Looks like Lots of lemons on road. One review on cars.com is very alarming.

Rear seat legroom tight for adults, but great for kids. Shoulder room in front is better than my 550SL. Otherwise this is one fantastic ride. Had ours four (4) years now, and only two small trim details needed dealer attention/repair. Went through front tires @ 25K miles, but rear tires ok to 35K.+ Replacing the P-zero's with Michelin tires for extended wear. I'm sure the original sticky Pirelli's were on there for performance and ride comfort. Lastly, NO Wind noise at 105 mph in west TX. Never had a convertible that was tomb quiet. Overall great value for the money, and sharp looking ride to boot. We got every option and only complaint is nav. system is hard to get used to for a tech. luddite, and methinks nav. sys. is better on my phone. Update: I decided to sell this car in Feb. 2017 and traded it for a Mercedes GLK350 which I needed to pull a trailer. No one would make or install a trailer hitch on the E350. We moved and pulled a trailer full of stuff from Texas to New Mexico and are now all settled in the new location. The problem is we don't need the GLK any longer and wish we had the E350 Convertible back. Well needless to say the new ones are just too expensive for a retiree. I still give the E350 ten stars on a five star scale. Great vehicle.
