finally, some visible exhaust. an actual exhaust note would be nice too - im tired of listening to loud belts and such. wheels are so so- look like my M3 wheels- dont really fit the car. Shifter is nice, if that is how keyless go would look.
I'd order that rear trim part and put a custom exhaust on for sure. they probably wont offer this in the US, my guess is it will be different, as an E320 is not exactly "sporty" which in the US, is defined by a big V8 as far as sedans go.
the pedals are ugly. need to be brushed, not cheap assss chrome.

4 wheels
I agree the wheels dont exactly look like the M3 wheels. I wish they did, or a more profound version of the wheels found on the Appearance package right now would be nice too. Also that SL steering wheel doesnt go with the car too whell IMO. But the exterior treatments are well done with the side skirts, front apron, exhaust and such. I say loose the pedals, they look cheap.
Perhaps I should get the E350 without sport package and just get some wheels. Any suggestions??? It has to be the Bordeaux Red though, just having a hard time picking an interior color.

Light grey would be my colour of choice, but if cleanliness is a problem then forget it and go for either black or charcoal. (I would also go for the new diesel )
Good luck with your decision,

Practical. We park our cars inside however, so the temp changes aren't a big deal, and I with an interior supplemented by the sport package, I'd rather not have something so bright.

Color
Well, it is great that we differ in color taste, else everybody would drive the same thing (although you get the feeling people are with all the silver cars aound.) My sport package E would be capri blue on ash.

Black
I get where you're coming from. I guess if you take that much care of it and only park inside than the finsih really i stunning. I however, park outside during the day, and then a light interior really is better in Southern California. That is why I opted for Capri Blue on Ash on my car now. I would choose it again or got to Bordeax red on Stone (Beige).

The red is just too elegent for my tastes, it's beautiful, but I really don't think I deserve a color like that. I can do white or black, I like to keep things simple and as 'clean' as possible.

For those interested:
My previous ride (2003 Bordeaux Red w/Stone, Sport Pkg, Pano & KG), on delivery date (I really, really liked the contrast with the interior, exterior and pano):
