2010 E350 4Matic

Just picked up an '10 E350 4Matic. Went to my dealer and saw one I liked and just bought it today. Didn't even bother to check out other dealers. Black on Black with only P2 and AMG wheels. Only other options I wanted was leather and trunk lid spoiler. I'll get use to the MB Tex and most likely pickup a trunk lid spoiler down the road. Needed something nicer for the winter. Wanted to trade in my W210 but wanted very little on trade so I just kept it. Probably use it to run errands around town and beat it to the ground til it dies. Overall I do like the W212 more than my previous W211 that I sold a year ago but my previous E500 was one of the best cars I've owned. Here's some crappy pics from my BlackBerry when I picked it up tonight.

Thanks! If I'm going to mod anything it would be the SL65 or the Jag. The E350 is mainly getting me through winter and snowy days so no modding. That's why I opted the V6 instead of going with a V8 again.

I also have a '05 Pathy with 85K miles and still running strong also! It's my company car that I drive to work most of the time. Love it in deep snow!

I see you are still buying cars LIONHEAD... Nice ride

Looks like great minds run in the same channel... I have my dealer looking for a E350 Luxury Sedan with a minimum P2 + whatever else he finds on his search. He has AWD's up the gazoo in stock but I hardly need that in Las Vegas. Like the C350 Sport but want a smoother, quieter ride.

Hope all is well and the moderators better get the Picture Sticky up because you know me an pictures...

Nevada Jack.....good to see you're still around! I see you go through cars more than I do...

Just think it all started with the W211 (mod this.....mod that). Can't wait to see pics of your new E once you get it.

Hey Kar don... good to hear from you.

Well the SL went the way of the GL and S... It was just not big enough but I enjoyed it while I had it. Then I wanted something sporty and I decided to try the C350... enjoyed that too, but the rear seat room is really tight. Was ready to maybe go the new E convertible but again rear seat and trunk room with the top down is 3 cubic feet. So I decided to go the sedan route and the new E looks very nice.

I will be 78 on Saturday so I had better enjoy them all....

Congrats, looks as if you have more or less come full circle in choosing the 212. I lay 3 to 1 the water parts when you walk in the dealership.

Good to hear from you. Yup, from the 2003 E Sedan through the entire model line and back to the E Class Sedan. Great rides all...

Greg has a special office for me when I visit the dealership. Had one sales rep who opened the door for me and I asked for Greg. He asked my name and I told him just tell him NevadaJack is here. His eyes opened wide and he said "You are Nevadajack? Your are a legend in this store..." I should know later today if Greg found a car for me...

I see you are still providing all the tech stuff which helps the forum members so much.
