'04's are currently in production, with no pricing announced yet. Cars should be in dealers by mid Sept. so expect pricing by then.

'04 E-500 expected to have 2 new features, active xenon headlamps (turn when you turn), and 7g transmission. Also, amg package

I believe the 320 can also get the cornering xenons as an option, I don't think the normal fixed xenons are available anymore.

It will be interesting to see who gets to check out the first 2004, to see if the radio presets can be switched via the steering wheel!

From another thread, it does not look like a bluetooth hands free phone setup is available.
