Got the opportunity to drive new E320 & E500 at MB's "E-Motion Event" at El Toro last week. Gotta say the looks of the W211 are a great improvement over the W210 IMHO. They had black, silver, and some grandma's-gotta-love-it gold colored E's to drive; looked great in black & silver, as far as I'm concerned the gold ought to be outlawed.

The only negative I noticed - purely aesthetic - I don't care for the new instrument cluster. I think the thermometer style fuel gauge looks like something out of a 1973 Chrysler translated to LCD.

i thought it was kind of cool, this is the first digital fuel reader, only the deville had it that i have seen, and in the E it isnt so big where you get frustrated..it is small and in the corner, and is more exact because it has small bars

hmm....i'd rip my heart apart to give either the thumbs down..both the E430 and E500 are excelent vehicles.

Honda S2000
Acura RSX-Type S
