new e550 coupe????

sorry but i just had to post this topic as i came across this website:

http://www.mercedes-benz.de/content/...207.flash.html

is this the NEWER E class coupe??

i say this because the LED's are in a straight line, rather than that "hockey stick"

if this is what the new led's come out like, this is much better imho

hockey stick led made by hella are looking ok on the coupe, due to the slanted front of the car but awkward on the sedan.

They said that they are now offering the E classe (coupe, sedan, cabrio) with horizontal LED's and they are allowing them to be purchased
from the parts counter at MB dealerships if the current owners want to switch over to the new LED's

Thank you for posting this ^

The closeup photos provided in the link show that the cars clearly have differently shaped bumpers where the LEDs are. Do you have any insight as to if you have to order the new bumper as well?

2011 E550
Issue with transmission shifting

Anyone have experience with a transmission on a 2011 E550 that is double-clutching at 3-4th gear? Car seems to run fine, but when I push it hard, it sputters when shifting gears at the higher RPM. Happens in regular and sport mode.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.
