E550
Thumbs up OMG!!! I got the wrong beast~!!

Wrong in any perspectives!!! Supposed to buy a E350, end up with E550. Supposed to choose steel grey, end up with palladium silver.





The family is pretty happy about it and that's all it matter. IMO, Palladium silver does look better at night. I love everything on this car except the fake exhausts, wish they tried a little harder on that particular design.

Can't wait for the engine to break in a little more, then I fully enjoy the V8.

Thanks for all the help from all you MB E drivers. Now I am offically in the club.

No, that's the right beast. Well, the E63 could have been another choice for a beast, too

You did good, Kenny. Congrats and enjoy.
Drive safe and drive hard.

E550
It has p2 package and the massage seat. We got it $65000 out the door.

We also bought the 5 year maintenance package for $3900. Is it worth? Does it really cover all the needed service(except brake and tires)? I will hate it if the service manager try to sell me even more maintenance on the day of service.
