My new black and ash sedan
I'm in love again! Although everyone on this forum doesn't agree on the new E350 styling, it certainly is a hit for everyone seeing this car in the flesh.
Debated between a white, steel grey, palladium silver, and black. Also the 5 spoke wheels felt more in tune to overall sculpted design of the E350, although those AMG 6-spokes are sweet. Can't go too wrong with black, especially as I would rather wash a car than mow lawns or till a garden any day.
4Matic rides smoothly. Was a little afraid it might be sluggish or feel restrained.
HD radio is fantastic - sounds better than I thought it would, with each station having one or two sister stations broadcast along with it.
Voice commands are reasonably intuitive. The voice system works much better than the '09 and '10 Audi A5s I test drove. For what it's worth.

Nice, was it a lease or purchase? Let us know the details on what it ended up costing you.
Also those rims are better than the 6 spoke AMG. I have the nice 5 spoke AMG's on my '08 E350 and can't stand the 6 spoke so MB is saving me money by going with the 5 spoke stock ones they are offering.

That's the ash MB-Tex. I was putting on license plate covers this afternoon, and forgot the screwdriver in my back pocket. Went to sit in the car, and that "dinosaur hide" they call MB-Tex didn't show a scuff or a wrinkle. Whew!

They list the 7-speed Driver-Adaptive Automatic with shift paddles. Now that I think about it, I am in the break-in period, so I haven't stomped on the gas yet, and haven't even felt the transmission shift yet.
