Both of your cars look fantastic. The wheels definitely play a large part of that! Seeing them back to back really reinforces that they are the same platform -- the E looks like it could basically be a facelifted version of the C.

C204 C250-CDI
Congrats again as per other thread Andrew 
The updated/face lifted current E coupe is very nice, but IMHO I still prefer (looks wise) the C204 your old wheels fitted up to your new E coupe make it look a lot better than stock 
New E class will be released next year and will be a very interesting vehicle especially the AMG variants.
I've got my heart set on an eventual acquisition of the new AMG C205 C63 coupe, we should see it in its initial release form end of this year or early next year

2017 E400 Coupe & 2018 GLC43
~ well after seeing the new '18 e400 coupe in person (too rounded exterior for me - kinda plain) ... i elected to trade-in my '15 e400 coupe for a new '17 e400 coupe.
very similar cars but i swapped from the red leather to the medium tan leather (looks nice with the black carpet contrast). i also like the newer & more aggressive amg bumpers and side rocker panels on the new '17 (same as '16).
the new car also has the premium headlights i always missed in my '15.
they made me a heck of a deal since the new '18 coupe was just released. no regrets for i loved my '15 e coupe with its subtle mods.
i just completed the full clear bra, swap the prior gloss black grill, & installed the dust-free brake pads over the weekend... 50% tint tomorrow, springs next week, & i will swap to the more aggressive 19" on to the car once lowered.
pics to follow soon...

Mercedes C250 Coupe
[QUOTE=andrew c coupe;6412181]~ After owning my 2012 C250 coupe for 3 years... I have made a change and selected a new '15 E400 coupe - 4matic... both cars are white on red.
Hi Andrew,
Great photos!
I've driven a CPO 2012 C250 Coupe since 30 August 2014.
I know you'll think I'm none too bright (but -externally now- I really can't see too much difference between your C and your E).
Please don't take offense - but you must be made of money.
I know you now have all wheel drive plus an upgraded power plant.................
I wish you the best.
