My 2016 C350e Estate arrived yesterday! I'm in love!
Look at that ***!
I've only had a couple of short test drives so far, but I've already fallen in love with it!
I got it with the 18" wheels (17" winter tyres on pic), pano roof, Avantgarde exterior/AMG interior, Audio 20 w. Garmin, black leather seats, Black Ash matte wood interior, ambient lighting package, memory package, parking package, driver's assist package (distronic+, lane keeping, blind zone etc.). I think it has most of the extras except for the 360 camera, night assist and (unfortunately) Burmester. If I wanted the Burmester sound system I'd have to wait another 3 1/2 months, which would be unbearable.
Anyways. I am looking forward to spending a lot of time with this beauty in the time to come!

Thanks everyone!
@vic viper, I've already put Mercedes-Benz center caps on the rims, but thanks for noticing. The picture was taken at the dealer.
I was actually planning to get the GLC350e PHEV, but it's almost a year waiting time and I'm not that patient.
So there's no C350e Estate/Wagon version in the US? I guess you guys don't love wagons the way we do here up north.
I've driven it a bit now and I absolutely love it. Performance in Sport+ is amazing (even though I've only driven on slippery roads so far). The only downside is the luggage room compared to the old E350 Estate. But, I'll manage, I'm sure.
Thanks for the comments guys!

C350E
If one looks to UK, it seems most people chose the sedan. And there the estate is inn for the whole S205 series. Checked out mbusa.com and it´s not possible to buy the estate at all in the C series state side.
Read up some on how the new C series is produced different places for different markets.
Bremen in Germany as the main none, one in UK, one in USA and so on.

EQE 500 4MATIC replacing EQC 4matic AMG line P
Interesting debate c estate v c suv. I moved from the glk to the c estate primarily because of the load length and the delay in the glc which was 6 mths out of my leasing cycle. Being back in an estate which is also 4matic like the glk i tend to prefer the lower seating position and lower centre of gravity and therefore its handling BUT I have not driven a glc so maybe the difference is not as noticeable with the new suv.
Rbrylaw can best discuss this point! But i love my c class but as with the glk woild still like a bit more interior space so may look at the new e class estate next but it will need to becat the c class level as a minimum.
I have airmatic so ground clearance is a little less of an issue than on standard steel springs but seems to me the real difference between an estate orsuv, good grouñd clearance at the expense of some handling, poor ground clearance better handling......i live in a rural area but do not go offroad in the true sense so an airmatic estate can cope unless we have a heavy snowfall which this year seems very very unlikely it is so bizzarly warm...though rather wet!
