4matic = rules !!!
The 4MATIC maintains the high level of driving quality that is typical to Mercedes-Benz. It also boosts traction plus with the interaction of the ESP® helps motorist to overcome all types of weather conditions. The compact and lightweight construction, the 4MATIC offers various advantages in terms of weight, comfort, consumption, and safety.

The 4-Matic could even be faster because of the better grip at start, but according to the Euro figurer, the S350 is faster at 0-100 km/h 6.9s versus 7.1s for the 4-Matic. Both are limited to 250 km/h top speed.
From the manual you can see that with standard suspension on both, the 4-Matic would sit 15 mm higher than the RWD model.

Performance
Go to this website:
http://www.mercedes-benz.de/content/...0001.0002.html
Go to performance figures and it will show the difference between all the models and transmissions. Looks like .2 slower for 4-matic in 0-100 KPH.

Performance and height are a very little different. However its not even noticable and as far as performance is concerned you can't tell the differnce with very sophisticated measuring equipment.

4-matic performance
I think this speaks well of the 4-matic engineering that we cannot distinguish much difference in performance. It does add a little weight so I would think there is a small premium to pay. I do know in my 01 E-430 the 4-matic seemed totally seamless and I assume it will be the same for my pending 08.
I did read where the S-Class had an even newer generation of the 4-matic than the E-Class. That seems a little disappointing for E-class owners that you can't get the latest advancements in a $65K car. Can anyone describe if and what those difference are?

fuel mileage
According to my website listed on post #6, there is about a 7% increase in overall fuel mileage for the E-500 for the 4-Matic. It is 12.3 L /100Km vs. 11.5 L per 100Km.

BMW FTW
Depends on the road conditions.. If its raining/snowing/wet/low traction road then the 4matic will be faster..

Do not believe so. I get 26.5 on the road and about 21 around town with my 05 E320 4M. There again may be an insignificant difference but its certainly not a factor at all when you take all the advantages of the 4M into consideration.
