Pictures... finally!

Here she is - Black with Sahara Leather interior, P1, sport and split folding seats. The interior is gorgeous - reminds me of my old Audi S4, almost the same colors. Power is on par with the E430, just without the V8 grunt - more seamless.

Washed her and of course it rained the next day.

Wow, absolutely incredible!

I wish they had that interior choice in the W221 (in the US)

What a beautiful color combo. Enjoy!

Wow, that's sweet. I wonder why they didn't offer 2 tones on the seats as well. I might go better with the rest of the car.

White leather and Osidian Black is so gorgeous. You just have to keep the leather clean! Cashmere is also nice and just as prone to stains etc.

Congratulations.

MB offers 2 tone leather seats with leather shifter knob and black head liner. Ask about Designo.

Daum...that looks really classy. Congrats! I would assume the Black with Cognac Leather would look sweet also.

There're limited designo options in the US. Two-tone is definitely out of the question.

Very classy looking car! Looks comfortable.


Which would you say would win in a race? E350 the older E430?

E compares...

I saw a flint / congnac (special order) when I was picking up mine. Some people may like it, but I don't. It's almost like the cinnamon that BMW was offering in the M3.

As for comparing the two (E430 and E350) - they have almost the same power. The E350 seems more seamless, with the 430 there was the V8 roar / grunt. They drive quite similar.

I know the beige is going to be hard to keep clean especially with the kids, but its worth it, plus its only on the seats. I think its stunning.

One other note - there appear to be very few Sahara interior cars out there. Almost all the E350s are MBtex. I saw the interior on the SAKS car and asked if it could be ordered. Found out there were only 2 in CA.... its mostly a special order option, just got lucky the dealer was able to direct it in from the port.

Happy New Year!
