2014 E350 Sedan 4Matic - I'll drive it forever

My 2014 was T-bone totaled. I bought a 2021 E350. I add details about it, but suffice it to say that the 2014 (W212) was preferable. Also, if you can't find a W212, go for a 02018-2020 because the 2021 forward have these annoying touch controls which misfire a lot. For the 2014, I wouldn't buy one without the options ,....I added $15K in options and am very happy I did - Premium package, Lighting, Sport, Parking assist, Driver assistance, AMG wheels, Massage drivers seat, and surround vision (Eagle Eye).. The most important of these for me is driver assistance (DISTRONICS). DISTRONICS option was hard to find on other cars, but makes the miles go quickly and adds safety. One big difference is that DISTRONIX adds a bunch of pre-crash and post-crash safety features. It's probable one of the reasons that Mercedes has so few "Drivers death rates". https://www.iihs.org/ratings/driver-death-rates-by-make-and-model d I get 31 mpg on long trips, and 20 around the suburbs. Eight years now and not a single repair needed. Probably won't get a new one because the new E class (2017 forward) does not have/offer a spare tire nor a CD player. I've had 2 flats and used the donut spare on both. I had run flats on my small 2010 BMW 135i and was not satisfied with a flat tire experience. Also the run flats give a harsh ride - hard to find replace/service. Larger BMW and Audi and Genesis still have spare tires options. I'll test drive those for my next buy.

2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E550 2dr Coupe (4.7L 8cyl Turbo 7A)

E550 coupe beautiful to look at and super light on its feet. Sleek and such a head turner I've only seen one other in my large city in 3 months. What I don't like- I hate the Eco mode and that it can't be turned off permanently. It's smooth as silk when riding in comfort mode- you hardly notice it but if you are like me and like to drive it in sports mode you won't be happy. It's a obvious feeling/ sound. I now just turn it off nearly every start because I mainly drive I. The city and it's just annoying to have it power down each stop. Internet radio is a waste- it takes like 5 min to get a signal and forget changing the Chanel it has to reload all over again.

I bought my E350 from my Local Mercedes dealer last November with 27K miles on it. It is so nice that they had it in the showroom with the new ones! I have owned several Mercedes cars and SUV's during my lifetime but I enjoy this one more than all the others. It drives and handles like an SL but has the benefit of a back seat and lots of cargo space in the trunk. Fuel economy on a recent1,000 mi. road trip was 32.5 mpg at an average speed of 80 mph. Amazing! I took it to a reputable tuner before the road trip and he tweaked the computer to give it another 61 HP, so now it's really quick. Love my black beauty!!! Best car ever. No, it's never going to be for sale. You owe it to yourself to go get one!

By Far The Best Car I've Owned

This is my third Mercedes-Benz, but my first E Class (I am coming from owning two C Class 4Matic models). While the C was reliable and comfortable, I now understand why the E Class is always described as THE quintessential Mercedes-Benz. Even in the 350, there is an abundance of power, yet the car shifts and rides so smoothly; this car is consistently comfortable and enjoyable in which to drive and ride. As far as styling, I feel like Mercedes nails it. Other cars in this class either seem to go too modern, and the interiors end up looking like some Frankenstein monstrosity, or too conservative and stodgy. The E Class is a perfect blend of modern tech amenities and understated elegance; I love little touches like the analogue time piece in the center dash. I have seen others complain about the use of the COMAND system, but personally I find it very intuitive and user-friendly. While I am averaging about 29.0 MPG, I have achieved as much as 40.0 MPG on the highway, a nice perk I was not really expecting when buying the car. Also, even though I bought CPO with 28500 miles, the car looks, rides and smells brand new (always a great idea to find a CPO that was a personal lease; at 3 years old and with much of the depreciation hit already taken, I saved about 30K off MSRP). I've had this car for a year and a half now, and I continue to look forward to each time I get behind the wheel.

My 550 4 Matic

This is the first Mercedes I've owned. It is a really nice car. However, if you are looking for a smoother ride, you may want to consider a Lexus. Don't get me wrong it does ride nice in terms of minimal road noise, great sound system and solid handling feel, but It is a little firm. All in all it is a really nice vehicle. Word of caution if you are not going to keep it for an extended period of time (5 years of more) then buy it CPO/Used because the depreciation on this car will shock you! Originally purchased it 18 months ago for 78k (loaded), and today it is only worth 44K!!! I know it shocked me too. 34K drop in only a year and a half! So.... But you won't be disappointed with the vehicle. It is a dream to drive. Good luck!
