New to MB, no longer a Caddy fan.
I've had this 2014 E350 luxury wagon for about a month. It has 12,000 miles on it, and looks like new. Being as old as dirt, I wanted something comfortable. I have been driving Cadillacs for the last 30 years, but traded in a Cadillac XTS, which is the last Caddy I will ever buy. I hated the touch screen, which required looking down and precise finger placement. This is my first MB, and comes with comfort package and lots of other features in the 4Matic version. I needed a long trunk space for hobbies so my choices were few. I was surprised that this wagon is not longer than the 4-door sedan, and was very similar in weight and dimensions to the XTS. It is also noticeably quieter! Although it needs premium gas, it does several mpg better, is more nimble and seems to have smaller turning circle. LIKES: Mouse controlled non-touch screen with good resolution. ECO mode shuts off engine when stopped as long as foot on brake. HOLD mode even allows you to take foot off brake, and restarts engine only when you hit gas. Rear seats fold almost flat with no gap or step where they meet the trunk floor. Seats are very comfortable and have good range of adjustment. I like the way the inside temp. is permanently displayed each side just above the setting up/down switch. DISLIKES: I miss not having real-time speed limit display. The back-up camera is great but I can't see the back-up warning red LED bar on the ceiling in the rear view mirror.(Why have it at all if it is positioned so stupidly.) It was just about the only vehicle within 1000 miles that met all my requirements and even the color (gun-metal gray, with white interior) was acceptable. UPDATE: After 12mths I'm still just as pleased. I wish I had gone over to MB in the 90's when Caddys went to hell! Update, 2yrs, still delighted, probably will never change it. 2018UPDATE: Another 2 years and I'm still delighted! I will drive it until it dies (or I do)! 2020UPDATE: Still delighted with it every time I drive. Not many miles this year, but still doing everything I want! I got new Quiet-track tires at 24,000 as they were getting old - now even quieter! 2021UPDATE: Still doing great. MB (36mth) battery gave up after 39mths, now have non-MB battery (48mth warranty) at half the MB price. 2022 UPDATE. nothing changes, still very impressed. New wipers needed now, otherwise just regular service.

My 2014 E350 Coupe
This is my first Mercedes and I couldn't be happier! I purchased it CPO with 30K miles on it and it drives and looks like a brand new car. My E350 coupe is white with tan leather interior, the 2014s have the refreshed look so it looks like the newer models. The build and drive are simply exceptional. This car still looks like a $65,000.00 dollar although I paid 1/2 the price. I have owned it for about 2 months and I still smile every time I get behind the wheel, it corners very well and has really good pick-up but it's more of a grand touring car with a ton of luxury features. If you are looking for a reliable, great looking and fun to drive coupe, the 2014 E350 should be on your short list....FYI; getting it 3 years old with about 30K miles on it will also save you about 50% off MSRP. I loveeeeeee my E350 coupe and I love every aspect of this car, I have zero concerns.

A luxury sedan that hauls cargo too
This is a review of the E350 wagon with the Luxury trim package. The Sport trim version costs the same but has some styling differences, a stiffer suspension and different size wheels on the rear than up front. All E350 wagons sold in the US are all-wheel-drive - Mercedes Benz calls that "4Matic." Never any squeaks or rattles, butt-kicking sound system, super-reliable. Acceleration is plenty aggressive when you need it, the all wheel drive handles quick maneuvers like U-turns under power flawlessly, and the brakes bring this big critter to a stop like lightning. Fit, finish and materials are awesome inside and out. The standard MB-Tex upholstery looks and feels like leather but unlike leather it's as gorgeous after 5 years as when new. I like old-school floaters so I wish the ride was a little cushier but it's plenty quiet and comfy (way more so than the C class). And it's a big, capable wagon, one of a very few on offer in the US. On the other hand, these are expensive to service, very expensive to repair and just crazy expensive when bought new. This is my second E wagon and I bought both the same way, as off-lease two-year-old Certified Pre-Owned (CPOs) with two extra years added to the CPO warranty for a total of three years with unlimited miles. I wouldn't consider a car like this without an extended warranty from the car's manufacturer (third party warranties are iffy). Would I buy it again? Since this is my second one, obviously I would...I already did! Love this ride.

A sophisticated 1969 GTO
Have owned my Mercedes E550 Coupe for 2.5 years. If you miss the open air feel of the a 60's muscle car coupe with no B pillar and gobs of horsepower and torque, then seriously consider this car. In fact, it is the only mid sized coupe with no B pillar and a big V8 engine currently available. Think a 1969 Pontiac GTO built by Mercedes; you would actually pay twice as much for a restored like new condition GTO and get half the car. I know, I owned one, and this car puts most any true 60's muscle car to shame. 0-60 in 4.9 seconds, conservatively rated at 402 HP and 443 ft/lbs of torque, out handles any 60's muscle car, >22 mpg city/hwy. With perfectly restored muscle cars going at auction for >$100K, this is a very practical bargain. I've had ZERO issues-repairs on this car. The only negative is the front seats, which for me could be much firmer and the bottom seat cushion is too long for shorter drivers and not adjustable. Can’t wait for the new 2019 E53 AMG Coupe, which should be like an E550 on steroids. ——— Bought the new E Class E53 AMG, but got The Cabriolet instead of the Coupe. Major improvement over the above car in all aspects, including the seats which are much more comfortable and adjustable. The light hybrid turbo straight six with 429 HP outperforms the E550 V-8, but for an old guy, there is still something about the V-8 that I miss, although you can get a fire breathing V-8 in the E Class sedan and wagon, but not in the coupe or Cabriolet. So the E550 may be the end of the road. If you find the driver’s seat comfortable, buy a lightly used one and hold on to it. Replaced this car with an E53 AMG, which comes in a coupe and cabriolet. It is a better car in every way, handling, acceleration, braking, comfort; it has a turbo supercharged hybrid 3 liter straight six with much more power, but ahh.....that V-8!

Mercedes-Benz diehard
They can get ALL they need to know by asking owners/leasers of this vehicle. Best $28K vehicle I ever purchased. Just a few goodies short of the 2010 E550 in Quartz Blue (why on earth did M-B drop that awesome color?) with beige interior and LOADED! Unfortunately, I totaled it on a mountain road in Northern California, rolling it over on the roof with 2 untethered dogs and we all walked away with NO injuries whatsoever! That's Mercedes-Benz for you. My insurance company gave me $40,000, I paid only $36K. I then used that sum to purchase a 2009 Mercedes SL550 Roadster for $50K. Lotta' fun, that one! But now, reality has set in, I am over 75 and am pleased as punch with the 2014 E350 4MATIC. "Nuff said!

Wagon Bliss
Purchased this vehicle on July 30, 2014 and it now has 3,500 miles on the odometer. I've been driving high-end European vehicles for over 40 years, a number of which have been MB products, and this is the first time I have not had one occasion to return to the dealer for an adjustment or problem with the car. The vehicle came loaded and it took a few drives to acclimatize to all the systems, particularly the advanced driving system. After more than 3 months of ownership I can say, without hesitation, this is one of the finest automobiles I have driven.
2014 E550 Cabriolet
This is a dream car come true. I love the performance, the build quality, the technology is amazing! My wife and I have 2 children and love top down driving! With the windows up and the air cap all four of us can talk with the top down doing 70 mph on the interstate. I have researched convertibles for 2 years before I ordered this car. I looked at BMW 6 series convertible, Audi RS5 convertible to mention a few. Without question, none of them come close to the E550 cab. If you are looking for performance, comfort, technology, cruising for a family of 4 this is it! I enjoy the driver assistant package. In stop in go traffic it does the driving!
Wow!
Have been driving my new 2014 E550 Coupe for about a week, and it is remarkable. I switched from a BMW 535 and there is no comparison. The E550 is a rocket, rides like a dream, and contrary to some places write, I feel much more connected to the road. The interior is gorgeous, exterior is sleek and beautiful, and the technology is fantastic. I was a little worried that the Lane Departure, Blind Spot, and other systems might be intrusive, but frankly, make it even more fun to drive. Gas mileage is about what you would expect, though the on/off feature should help, and is virtually unnoticed when stopped. Sound system is also first ate
First MB
This is my first Mercedes. Have owned BMW740 ( perhaps worst car I have ever owned) Infinity Q45, and Lexus LS 430. This car is as fun to drive as any of them . As far as ride quality goes, however, the Lexus is leaps and bounds in front of this car. However, I got this car for the performance and it has not let me down. This car jumps when your doing 40 and step on it. It is flat out fun to drive. My older Corvettes were to old to compare but insofar as fun factor, yea its right there. Seats are a little stiff, sound system is okay, nothing great. The nav system is so-so at best, seems like most in cars are years behind the cell phones anyway, but it does work.
What fun!
Sporty yet comfortable. Better than expected mpg. Standard sound system superb. Switched from Audi because they did not have comparable coupe. This is nicest car I ever owned

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.

E350 Black Beauty
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!

Impressions after 3 months
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.
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!

Love this E250 Luxury model
If you can, order the active multi contour driver's seat. It makes driving a real pleasure. The 40 plus mpg highway adds to the experience. Diesels are making quite a resurgence in the states, and for good reason. The suspension on the Luxury truly provides a much smoother ride than the Sport model. I highly recommend it and, at a minimum, try to drive both before you buy. It is becoming more difficult to find this type of "your father's" luxury car ride. Look no farther than this automobile. Buy one and enjoy the ride! Update as of 4/15/2016 -- Since I penned my original review, my statement regarding a resurgence of diesel cars in the states has taken a turn for the worse, given Volkswagen's troubles with testing. As recently as this week, Mercedes has come under scrutiny for exactly the same testing problems which falsely yield better mpg and emissions than reality might suggest. I will be pretty furious with Mercedes Benz if they were involved with this controversy. I purchased my car with the environment in mind and will feel deceived if they mishandled this ethical issue. Update as of 4/14/2017 -- Not much more to add. There is a second battery in the back of the car that is responsible for certain functions ( my favorite of which is the auto stop where you tap the brakes a second time and they stay on without your foot being on the pedal....great for long stop lights and hills), in any case that battery failed and was replaced under warranty. The ride is still very smooth and people still comment on how much they love the looks of the car!! Update as of 10/19/2017 -- Although the ride of the car still remains quite good, there is an option for air suspension costing around $2000 on the newer models about which Edmunds has written positive remarks. If I were to buy a new E class, I would add that feature.

Great ride, great looks, great performance
Even with the sports cars I've owned, I've not received as many or as frequent comments about the great looks of this car. In nearly 40 years of driving, this is easily my favorite car. Whether it is a trip to Home Depot by myself to load it with project materials, or filled with 2 parents and 5 munchkins for a birthday outing, this car really does it all. From both a performance and luxury standpoint, it is everything that you would expect from Mercedes. During inclement weather, this is absolutely one of the best snow-fighters I've ever driven - and that's just running standard all-season tires. I'm not the best one to quote gas mileage figures because I often run it in Sport mode in a very spirited fashion. And it does that very well, surprising quite a few other drivers at the stop lights.

new owner
just bought two 4 matic 2014's in nov 2016 with 14 k and 11k miles. polar white and indigo blue colors are beautiful. really impressed with the cars. classic grille and tri star on hood-hate the sport package grille and placement of the MB emblem. traded 08 e 350 for one of them. the 08 was a fine car but this new model is better, at least for 2014. Both cars are cpo luxury models. thought both purchase prices were good based on original msrp. have most options but not all of em. great highway car. electric steering at 65+mph straight as an arrow with no vibration. don't buy sport package unless your roads are perfect, too harsh a ride. love the dash and IP layout, analog clock gorgeous, even the fake metal surrounds look good. ride is very good on bumps but not great. handling in corners sufficient, brakes high and tight pedal. must have radio ON to enable back up camera-dumb! leds are bright-love em. wife loves her car too.

CPO E350 4Matic
Bought this car CPO with 2 years and 20k left on the original factory warranty, and 1 year unlimited mileage after that's done. Paid less than 31k for a 65k car that is less than 3 years old. Having been driving it for a month with no issues. Great car and great value for the luxury you're getting. I'll never buy a Merc new, I'll stick to the CPO route due to the ridiculous depreciation. The best cars though!

Regular Electronic Issues
Bought a 2014 e350 convertible with 11,000 miles on it. It was a MB certified pre-owned car. Fun to drive; problem was the drivers side window would not fully close. After four trips to the dealership in 4 weeks, the window would not still not consistently close. Hard to own a car you can't drive in the rain. The dealership was great - they tried the specified MB repair four times but it would not hold. The dealership took the car back with no hassle. MB was not good (: I spent $1,500 on prepaid maintenance that they would not return. Didn't matter that the car could not be used as a regular driver. You should be ashamed MB. My next convertible will be another BMW.
My 2014 E350 Sedan Sport not a quality machine
Car in shop too many times for too many issues in first month of ownership. Long time loyalty to brand to the tune of 1 new MB a year for several years. Asked them to buy car back before the issues grow. Two systems they still cannot fix - 360 camera and Sirius radio. They told me they are happy to honor the warranty but will not take car back. So much for loyalty. MBUSA customer service is under trained and incapable of client retention. 3000 miles on car in shop two times for two weeks with the service area working on items and not able to fully repair. MBUSA aware of factory 360 camera issue, Sirius - no clue. 30% chance that something will not work when driven.

MB Does It Again!
This is an elegant, thoughtful, well-designed and executed sedan. My chief concern in finding a replacement vehicle was safety. My wife and I were t-boned at high speed by a pick-up truck. It was in our 2010 MB C-300. Under the worst conditions MB design worked without fail. We walked away from the incident a bit shaken but unharmed. Our larger replacement vehicle is beautiful. The E-350 4Matic is understated but handles well with a CDI 3.5L V-6. It handles consistently, without any idiosyncrasies. Look at the AMG if you want a true sport sedan. We desired a comfortable, safe automobile and found it.

4 cylinder luxury vehicle
The 2014 E250 Bluetec 4matic has a vibration at higher speeds that sometimes goes away once the car finds the right gear. I have 700 miles and the computer on the dash says I am getting 34.5mpg. The car gets over 40 mpg on the highway easily. I bought the2014 E250 Bluetec for the fuel efficiency, the longevity, and it is the only E class they had that still has the 3 point star on the hood. I have read all the horror stories about Mercedes Benz but at 700 miles I have not had a single problem. I think I will keep this one for a long time.
Opinion not changed on MB reputation
Finally traded the E350 in on a 2016 C class sedan 4 matic. Better built more comfortable than the E 350. Car still exhibits a lot of road noise which I think is caused by the run flat tires. It doesn't seem like Mercedes is making quiet vehicles like they used to. This is a follow up review to my previous E350 review. I just took the car on a short trip to Sedona Arizona and I have to say that the road noise in the cabin was considerable. Over moderately coarse pavement the tires roared so much it gave me a headache. I am very disappointed in the amount of road noise that exists in $60,000 automobile with only 7,500 miles on it. I don't think Mercedes Benz products are what they used to be. Buyer beware. Opinion not changed. Road noise is still excessive. The front seats are uncomfortable. More rattles have developed. The front bumper and the attached chrome wing at the bottom are very susceptible to rock chips. Also, the interior high gloss black ash wood trim may as well be plastic it is so full of scratches and swirls and I am extremely carefull to wipe fingerprints off with a very soft cloth. I can't wait to get rid of this vehicle; however, E350's have not held their value and I am considerably underwater. Again, buyer beware!

She's My Baby Cedes..
I've had her since she was born, and intend to be driving her until one of us leaves the planet. Beautiful car....fell in love with in the moment I jumped in. Had just test-driven some BMWs and there was NO comparison. The BMW's were extremely uncomfortable. Hurt my back. and I don't have back problems! The ONLY, minor (cosmetic) issue I have had was the driver's seat leather splitting during the second winter I was in Maine. Extreme cold + seat warner= problem. Thank God it was under warranty.

NOT IMPRESSED
Somewhat disappointed in this vehicle. Don't get me wrong---it drives and rides terrific but over the last two months I've spent around $10k in repairs for a well taken care of vehicle with only 30k miles on it. The convertible top mechanism failed and needed to be replace. A week later a piston for the top needed replacement and this week motor mounts needed replacing. For a well taken care of car with only 30k miles I expected much more from Mercedes.

Great car with some minor setbacks
I love the look of the car, the more aggressive grille that comes with the 550 and the performance is exquisite. The 402 horsepower and 443 lb/ft of torque usually puts me at 60 in about 4.6 seconds. The car has a great ride quality and when in sport mode really feels like a 'Drivers car." When Driving the car there is a noticeable rattle the comes from the A pillar and is present even on fairly smooth roads. Convertibles are more prone to these types of issues however when driving a BMW 650i convertible this rattling was not present. Furthermore, there is a slight squeaking noise that seems to originate from the front axle or suspension and just occurs now and again and then goes away.
Finally a real luxurious E Class
I owned W210, W211 and now this beautiful W212. Bought it CPO in 2017. This is far more luxurious than any older E Class. Quality is top notched. Great trunk space. The non-turbo engine is not only powerful but also fuel efficient. If I don't drive too fast on highway, I can get 30 miles per gallon. Transmission is silky smooth. With finger crossed, it should be a keeper.

The greatest car I have ever owned
I bought this car new. It is loaded with all options that I know of. In the four years I have owned it I have not had any problems because I maintain the A and B service when told this is the time. It is on the instrument panel. I have never had any problems with milage, repair or maintenance. Car drives like a dream and is very comfortable. While driving from Delaware to Florida I was a little tired and the system beeped and informed me that the car with me driving " detected drowyness. It kept ringing until I acknowledged the message and turned it off. The paint on the car even thought is four years old looks new. I have the car detailed twice a year as the seasons change. I bought the tradition mode with the star on the hood. Dark blue with beige interior. I still get remarks from people saying what a beautiful looking car it is. I AGREE

Get One
This is my third Mercedes and I've had it for a little approx. 1 1/2 years. I bought it with 9,900 miles on it with the remaining warranty of 1 1/2 years left. I also opted for an extended warranty of three years as the vehicle was certified. Over all a great car. The ride is a little tight, which is a little sportier than the sedan, also of my choosing. It weighs in at about 370 lbs. lighter than the sedan, according to Auto Guide. 0-60 is about 4.5 seconds. That's pretty quick for a 3,770 lb. vehicle. Put it in manual and use the paddle shifters and change the suspension to sport, and it changes the ride, and puts a smile on your face. If you can afford one, get one.

Mostly Quite Pleased
I leased this car after a few great years with an E-Class Sedan. It was basically perfect and I had a lot of trepidation about switching to a less practical car. I love my new cabriolet! It's got great steering and handling, a wonderful turn radius and the trim level is terrific. Otherwise, I love putting the top down on any dry day.
Never again.
Bought this car CPO with 10,000 on it in Spring of 2015. Car went to the shop 5 times the summer of 2016 with an AC problem before Park Place MB of Dallas could ever figure it out even though we provided two videos of the noise. Then there is that glorious MB stench from the AC that happens every summer that takes $200 to remedy (This is the second MB we have owned with the same problem). The navigation is a joke. The internet radio operates with the speed of an AOL dial up connection. The driver's seat started coming apart at the seams at 57,000 miles (CPO would not cover it and the dealer wanted $900 for the repair) [Understandable to a point but when both drivers are under 190 lbs, I take issue with their "wear and tear" claim]. Transmission is jerky. Latest issue was a "catch" in the steering that showed itself when driving down a straight road. Any slight little turn of the wheel was met with resistance and dealer could find no issue. We got rid of this thing! Paid $52,000 for it and traded it for $22,500 just 2.5 years later. Horrible resale value on MB. Will never own another one.

So far so good
Bought it two months ago. So far so good. Visited dealership due to torn front seat leather. They took care of it without question. Maintenances cost like oil change and stuff are on the high side but expected. All I can say the ride is smooth like driving it on butter, on my luxury not sport version of E class.

6 years and still going strong
Cannot think of any negative. This car can be a comfortable luxury when driven softly and can be an aggressive sports car when pushed a bit.

perfection
I own E550 and it is perfection. whenever you get in your car the seat belt hugs you and says hello and then whenever you turn the seat hugs you and reminds you that you are in bliss. when you step on the gas you are empowered to do anything and if anyone thinks that they can beat you on the take off on the light you simply sit back give them a handicap and then lightly put your foot on the gas and kick their a. .... I love my car!
Mercedes’ is just another car
The car itself is worth 5 stars but Mercedes Corp is only worth 1 star . The reason is in 2016 there was an airbag recall notice from Mercedes telling me that l will be notified when the replacement airbag will be in . After 6 months l called and they told me it would be another 4-6 months. It’s now almost 6 yrs and now they are saying they don’t have a clue. This will be my last Mercedes The electronics is to complicated. It’s not user friendly

2014 E350 Coupe is simply impressive!
My first Mercedes Benz. Purchased last month a CPO with 34K miles in metallic metal grey, Premium 1 Package, Sport Package and full led lights. AMG wheels, light grey napa leather seats with contrasting accent color and dark wood trim. The Keyless Go, Harman/Kardon Logic 7 stereo system (excellent sound), Navi, rear camera and glass roof/ sunroof, auto rear window sun screen, auto start stop ALL work well. Still looks and drives like the 65K car it was new. Every time I get behind the wheel I think wow! I like that this coupe is stylishly unique (no B pillars). Previous car was a Lexus and with so many around it didn't look as special as this MB. Performance and build quality is excellent. More room in trunk than expected especially with split back seats down. I mostly drive in eco mode avg. 28mph. Driving between Austin and Dallas avg. 32mph. Only minor negative comment is engine is a little rough sounding at startup, It smooths out quickly. If you want a sport coupe that is fun and practical, this is the car. Other sport coupes handle more aggresivle but for daily driving on regular roads I'd rather have a firm but comfortable ride. Update 11.11.2018 I'm still impressed Haven't had a single issue except for a metal object puncturing a rear tire, those Michelin tires are expensive! This E350 coupe get compliments all the time for its style and color. I did add Techron fuel injection cleaner and engine startup is much smoother than when I purchased it.

Value tanked
Bought my E 350 new in July 2014. The car stickered at $61,250. Went to trade it in on another MB product in September 2015 and the dealership would only give me $37,500! Car was in perfect condition with only 8,000 miles. I would call this terrible depreciation. If you buy a new MB plan on keeping it for a LONG time.

Love this vehicle
The 2014 model is a big improvement over the 2013 model. After experiencing the upgraded headlight system, I highly recommend spending extra for it. It is so well done that MB carried it forward several model years without making any changes. Over all I am pleased with the purchase. I think the solid quality feel of driving this model will confirm the choice for 100% of drivers.

Great CPO Purchase
Mercedes has 1.99% financing for up to 6 years and includes the next two service intervals for free! After the original factory warranty expires, I have three more years under the CPO warranty with unlimited mileage. It's a fully optioned vehicle in Iridium Silver.

5 years in (85,000 miles)
I bought my E-350 used ( 1.5 year old with 18,000 mil.). 85,000 miles later. I have never taken it to shop for any issue. The only 2 times was for maintenance, 1-Transmission flush & fluid replacement. 2 Secondary Battery replacement ( covered by Warranty) I maintain my cars my self. The E-class is the only car produced in German that can come close on reliability to the Japanese cars. I cant say the same thing for my Other MB R-350 R-Class and my newer 2017 GLS-450. Maybe because E-class is the only one maiden in Germany?

Awesome Driving Abilities and High Quality
This car handles so well, it hugs curves and feels like it's gripping the road. It fun to drive and very comfortable. I've never owned a Mercedes before and I am thrilled with my new purchase. The interior is comfortable and is made of all quality materials. It looks and feels luxurious and I feel very safe in the car. The navigation is good but it's not as good as my phone navigation. I can just type in a place and then click directions on my phone. On the nav in the car I need to go to POI (points of interest) and then find the place and/or know the address so it's a bit more complicated than my phone. But once it's in the car I can save it and go right to it next time so that's a plus. The car is just beautiful inside and out. Sleek lines and curves right where they should be. I love the side mirror "warning" lane change feature (or blind spot feature). If a car is next to me there is a small red light on my mirror, when the car moves out of my blind spot the red light turns yellow. It will beep if I try to make a lane change with someone too close to my blind spot. It's a very cool feature that I love. The rear view camera is also very nice and I'm getting used to using it. Of course I still look back and check my mirrors as well but it's quite helpful. I can't say enough about this car, I'm in love!

Great time to buy - pricing is excellent
The Mercedes E350 convert is brand new for 2014 - a redesign, and well worth it. The interior is just sick....The Premium 1 Package anlong with the Sport Package are a must have with this car. The AMG wheels, wood and leather steering, Keyless Go options are a must. The Harman/Kardon Logic 7 stereo system, Navi & Rear Camera com[plete the driver experience. Bought it for my wife, and happy wife = happy Life - Sticker @ $68,945 - out the door in September $60,842 - wow
MB does not live up to its reputation
I have waited for almost a year to write a review on my 2014 E350 with sport package in order to live with the car for a while and not make any hasty judgements. I have always wanted an E 350 and I regret to say that I am very disappointed. First I would like to say that the car does not exhibit the solidity that MBs are known for. My car has many creaks and rattles from the extensive plastic parts used in the interior. The standard seats are firm, but extremely uncomfortable; more uncomfortable than any car I have ever owned and I have owned over 20 new cars since I have been driving. The sport suspension is overly harsh. All in all very sad for a car costing $61,000. Beware of MB! Still can't wait for the lease to be over. I'll never buy or lease another Mercedes product.

Stay away from MB
Long time MB owner, this E350 has had issues from when we drove it off the lot, the worst issue is the terrible transmission shifting, which is a safety issue when driving at highway speeds. There is an intermittent problem with a long hesitation when you step on the gas to pass or avoid something and the car accelerating. The "premium" leather seats (they are not standard and are not on most cars sold) are very uncomfortable because they pivot above the base, so if you dive in any position other than a right angle the bottom of the seat back pushes into the small of your back. Our brand new car had loose parts and noises which were corrected, but is that what you expect from this car?

Great car --Expensive to maintain!
This car is very expensive to maintain. Lights always popping on with a problem. Tires only last 30,000 miles. Very disappointed. Will replaced with a Honda.
