Thanks folks. My wife got her 2012 Olivine Grey E350 Coupe today (new pics.)

Greetings,

Thanks folks for your shopping inputs. Today my wife just took delivery of her new 2012 E350 Coupe, and she couldn't be happier about the car.

Sorry for my poor quality pictures, the Olivine Grey is very beautiful in person. It appears differently under different lightings -- most of the time it appears like dark grey, yet sometimes light grey, and under very bright lights it will show some different tones of green-ish and bronze-ish colors in it. It is a color that needs to be seen in person to do the justice.

Her car is Olivine Grey with Black Leather interior, plus:
- P2 Package.
- Appearance Package.
- Burl Walnut Wood Trim Package.
- Parktronic with Parking Guidance.
- Mbrace.

We did not have much time to drive the car today. I hope to report in a few days later with more details about our impression.

Have a nice weekend, and with best regards,

Congrats, looks very nice! The colours subtle, yet sets the car from the rest.
+Are those the upgraded 19" AMG Wheels? Or are they standard on the '12?

Looks very nice, even on pictures.

been thinking along those lines myself, including the 550.
(What is the price difference, $10K or so..?)

Any discounts or deals going on?

Again, nice looking ride, congrats...

Uh wait, is this the car that is based on the C-Class rather than the E-Class? Is it smaller, narrower or tighter inside than the E-350 sedan..?

E350 Coupe
Nothing Better than a bright shiny new E coupe. Congratulations.

Ah yes it would be...but that is the C class chassis not the C class car. The E coupe is 185 inches long while the E sedan is 191.7 a 6.7 inch difference. The E sedan is only 2.2 inches wider than the E coupe while the C sedan is 10 inches narrower than the E coupe. Overall the dimensions of the E coupe are closer to the E sedan except for being shorter which is appropriate for a 2 door coupe.

Personally, the biggest attraction for us choosing the E Coupe is its beautiful 'pillarless' coupe design with standard panorama roof.

Seating inside the cabin, the openness feeling and the view to the world are like no others in its class. When lowering all four windows and opening the panorama roof, it presents a refreshingly sensational and grand environment for the driver as well as all three passengers.

From the moment its robotic seatbelt arms extending out for our reach, to the moment its sturdy pillarless doors closing with a solid feel -- I can sense the extra amount of engineering Mercedes put behind this 'little' coupe.

Regards,

When we ordered our 2012 E550, there was no option for the 19" two-tone 5 spoke wheels. I saw these shown in the 2012 E-Class flyer printed from the MBZ site, but they were shown as a MBZ Accessory.

The Dealer Ordering Guide (DOG) didn't have them.

Is it referring to these 19" AMG forged wheels that came optional on the E63? I guess the dealer parts department might be able to look up their part numbers, and order them separately.
