It does not get any better than this car. It turns heads, it rides like a dream and handles like it is on rails. It is a great fun car. All the fears about the cost of maintenance that scared me away from MB for years have been put to rest wth being able to purchase maintenance packages. HWY MPG is between 28-32 depending on how far you put your foot in it or how much traffic is on the road. City MPG is 23-25 which is the same as my Honda Accord.

Plush, sleek, fast and refined. Just bought a 2012 E550 Cabrio in the Bay Area and drove it home to LA on the PCH. It was a day in heaven. As a Mustang 'vert lover, it was amazing to go 80 down the highway in 60 degree weather in comfort and on the phone with the top down! Drivability is all around awesome and this car coddles the driver. There are some very quirky ergonomics that will take some getting used to. It will take time to get used to the forest of control stalks on the left to keep from hitting cruise control when signalling or accessing some menus on the left wheel buttons, others on the center controller. But, every function is readily accessible without distraction and minimal effort. The seats are firm but comfortable, but look for the upgraded seats when shopping. The plushness and power combined with a very active suspension interventions in tight handling build confidence quickly, but take some adjustment coming from an American car. Must have features are the AMG performance package with the nice wheels and vented brakes, as many of the driver assist features as you can find, the finer seats and leather. The base Harman Kardon Audio is amazing.

Low mileage, maintenance history, good inspection of condition, reliablity issues for model you like. Patience to find the best deal.
