RWD plus Bridgestone Blizzaks is unstoppable on snow and ice. We laughed at AWDs with all season tires desperately struggle to get any traction.

California weather.

Meh, I prefer the pre facelift grill and bumper. The facelift looks tacked on and cartoonish.

Your 2009 is for sure not a E320, most likely a E350.

The pre-facelift one looks too dated and boring. I'm pretty sure you're strongly in the minority with your opinion.

2007 E350 - Purchased one month ago with 102K miles.

While on vacation, I took my recently purchased 2007 E350 to my buddy's Bodyshop to take care of the peeling clearcoat on the rear bumper, some driveway scratches on the the bottom of the front bumper, cleaning up the headlight lenses as well as buffing the complete car to bring it back to it's original shine.
Picked the car up today and decided to finally take some good shots, now that it is all cleaned up and buffed.

your car might just have become my new wallpaper, it’s good inspiration for me to do my facelift on mine already. How much did you spend to get it repainted?

Thanks very much, greatly appreciate the kind words.

Remember, this is a REALLY good friend of mine who has his own Bodyshop who did this for me:

- Rear Bumper re-spray, as clearcoat was peeling.
- Bottom of Front Bumper, due to Driveway Scratches.
- Passenger Side Exterior Mirror housing, due to scratches.
- Clean up of the headlight lenses, which started to turn a bit yellow.
- Misc. Rock Chips.
- Complete detail/buffing/polish of the Exterior.

Total Cost:
$500.00 PLUS a big bottle of Silver Patron TEQUILA.

Next on the list:
- Window tint
- Personalized 1960's CA Black/Yellow Vintage Plate reading "MBZW211", which is on order with the CA DMV.

If someone says a buddy did the work, don't ask how much. You obviously don't have that hook up so that number means nothing. If you had a person that did that work you wouldn't be asking.

S70 got a damn good price for the work done.

Assuming you are running 17's. If yes, you will not notice a difference in ride comfort. If you are running 16's, I would imagine you did.

I have Michelin Pilot Sport AS 3+ on the car, and the ride is actually pretty nice.

Installed most of my Designo Sand interior today. The door panels will come later. Started gently snowing outside while I was working, so I'll wait for warm(er) weather to actually run wiring and switches for the heated rear seats.

It was an option in Europe. The whole wagon was being parted out and I was offered the parts my friend couldn't use on his sedan.
