New to the 211 group
Had a 2001 210 for the past four years and just bought a 2006 E350 AWD from Volvo dealer freind who found the car for me at a MB auction. Car has 39,000 , one owner and all the records. Looks brand new. Paid $24,500. Is that a decent price or did I get taken to the cleaners as usual in the car buying process?
I am looking forward to this board from the old one that was immensly helpful.

Good Question. Unlike many of you, all I really want it to do its get me to work and back regularly! I have only had it three days now, and totally love the ride and feel. I have even gotten used to the nav system, although I like the TomTom better....I think I amgetting a slight vibration at 70 miles and hour and sdo not know haow to check to see what casues that.
On my 2001 E there were a hundred things I whould have liked to have done to it. But thsis one has nice rims, clear headlights, and a good shine.

I think many experience that slight vibration between 60-70 MPH ... Not sure if it's the tires (I'm still running the Conti's and looking to go to either Michelin or Bridgestone)
Do what I do .. keep it over 70!!!

I too just purchased a new Benz for myself. 2007 E350 with 24000 miles with the warranty up in July of 2010. Sport, integrated phone, nav,......I LOVE the car but did I get a good deal? I don't mean to hijack the thread but saw this as a decent place to ask a similar question......
Oh yeah, price: $28,500

Also, see if the dealer will give you a good deal on a original MB warranty extension to 100k miles or 7 years, this is only possibly while your car is under the new car warranty.
