New addition to the stable!

I picked up my new 2013 E350 yesterday and man am I impressed so far.

Hate to say it but its a big step up from the 08 C class.

My only complaint is that the 18" wheels look way too small for such a big car, I ordered some 19" S63 reps today so that ought to remedy the issue.

My C is for sale as well in case anyone is interested - Portland, OR area $19,100

Nice! Looks identical to my parents cars ( lol both are identical to yours). But it has a different feel for sure, it feels more sophisticated and higher end. But I love my nimble little C. Good luck selling your C though.

Say it ain't so! I would've figured a C-coupe or even an E-coupe, but not an E350 sedan. At least you'll be modding it somewhat and running 19s. In all seriousness, congrats!

ps are you going to swap stock parts back in or sell as-is? (could be danger for me wrt the LED tails... )

The grille in the pic is a Replica C63 One Fin- not the MB Accessory grille.

To the OP- congrats on the new car. Enjoy!
