Just picked up new 2013 E350

My lease was up on my 2010 and I just got the 2013. Im pretty impressed with this one more then I was with the 2010. Not much changes other then the technology in the command and the in the cluster. Also the engine is better and the LED lights in the front are nicer.

One thing is they mounted the front license plate bracket on the bumper after I asked that it not be installed. I dont need a front tag so Ive always order my cars without the front bracket. Does anyone know how to cover up the holes? I have 3 little holes from the bracket. Ive search the forums and didnt see anything.

Thanks.

Car looks beautiful! I am looking for a 2010 E350 in white as well. May I ask how much they gave you on a trade in? and how many miles?

VERY NICE!! Love the white... As for the license plate holes...there are small plastic push buttons available at most auto stores. You'll have to paint them as I've only seen them come in black.

Thanks guys.


C280 sport: The 2010 was returned from lease. I had 30K miles on it. My lease was for 33K miles which I probably would have gone over since my lease still had 6months left on it. I'm not sure what they will sell it for. I did have it in excellent condition as do all my cars. If your in the NY area its at Pepe Luxury Cars (MB of Larchmont).

w212 in white is one of the best looking cars on the road (mine is black). You see the ponton fenders and the lines much better in white.

Beautiful car. I wanted white originally, but I had a deal I couldn't pass on.

Congrats on the car!

Car looks great, as for the holes I'd tell the dealership to fix it since you did tell them not to install it. I don't see why you have to pay for their error.

The dealer put a front bracket on a friend's S before he took delivery. The dealership filled the holes and repainted- no charge to him- and you should insist upon the same. Good luck!
