TADA !! Finally got it.

Picked it up last night after ordering in November.
E550 4matic Steel Grey/Tenorite Grey with black/black ash interior.

I'm thrilled to bits despite the fact that taking delivery of such a car in the middle of a messy Canadian urban winter here is like rolling around on a barn floor in an Armani suit.

Well said! I picked mine up in November in the middle of 3 weeks of rain and mud and leaves. I'm not sure I'll ever get the leaf gunk out of the wheel wells.

Congrats, whats the V8 like in this car? everything I've read says not much more bang for the buck over the V6? I also really like your color, my fathers is the same color combo and I think it's the best color for this car hands down.

I tried the E350 and obviously justified the expense of an E550 to myself (at least).

For the little that I have used it so far this is the best I can come up with...
