New 2005 E-Class
Hi
I am planning to order New E320.
Need help woth these questions:
1. Does it makes sense to wait until 2005 model comes out?
2. Any anticipated changes between current 2004 and coming 2005 E-Class models?
Thanks.

There are some changes in the seating. Details have not been specified to my knowledge. My guess is that the 320 engine will be replaced by the 350 at some point. If the 350 is new with the 2005 then expect a late delayed availability of 2005 350 E's with the first ones in the US sometime in late fall. There is also a possibility to a mid year switch. Most likely though is that the 350 will appear as a 2006 with early availability such as late spring 2005. What is confirmed is that for the US the SLK will get the 350 first and it will be available on the SLK possibly as early as August 2004.

Anyone knows if the COMAND will get any changes for E-Class 2005 model (in particular "Bird sight view" in navigation system and MP3 play compatibility)?
