2004 E500 Brilliant Silver/Ash Appearance & Premium Pkgs
On Saturday we bought a new 2009 E350. We really like it. The new style Navigation/radio/cd with iPod hookup is much improved over what we had in our 2001 E320 or what we have now in our 2007 SL550.
The ride is great and so is visibility.
Leith of Cary NC was great. Especially Bob McGuire.

The '09 is gorgeous and the older one ain't bad either!

OK, Here's my first attempt at posting my W211 pic:
I shrunk it previously today for my avatar (shrunk the picture, not the car).
BTW, clear corners and silvered amber bulbs ordered today. If you don't count an MB trunk liner, they'll be my first "mod". Thanks from this Newbie to many on this Forum for their help and experience on issues like: navigation, Valeo radiator, clear corners, image posting, etc.

Some more photos of our new 09 E350. I like the iPod hookup in the glovebox. I don't like that the garage door opener only works with the ignition key in the on position.

Swell Cars
You guys have some swell cars sigh.
I'd like to post pics of my Echo 35-Oh but...
I changed the color of my E350 to flint grey met at the last minute which added another 6 weeks to my delivery date (my original order was in May but i decided to wait for the 09...it is now Sept 25) sigh.
Since I have all this time to think about it...what do you guys suggest my first aftermarket upgade should be?
BTW My MB will have these options:
Premium 2
Sport Package (i think all 09s have that standard now)
Parktronic
Panorama sunroof
leather of course
split rear seats for my snowboard and hur skeez

Hey, that looks great. Isn't that the special columbite color with a light red reflection? I ordered the same car.

2006 E350
Hi..I am new
Hi;
My dad bought a 2006 E350 sedan. I don't drive it, but joined this forum to get any help when needed.
I will post up better photos. Drove it from the dealer lot to home. Wow what a drive.

MBWorld Fanatic!
Some interior
Unfortunately it is MB-tex. I was shocked when realized that leather is optional now. MB-Tex feels a little rubbish, less slippery and perhaps a little colder than leather. Generally it can be acceptable on $20K range cars, but for $60K. Ridiculous situation is that it is hard to locate a car with leather and if you want it then better order it. Otherwise leather, the new car looks and feels good, it lost some small convenience things I had in previous E, however gained better quality ride and a lot of electronics.
