lol i know thats what i said,he's like there is more involed ,i normally pay $200-$250 to lower to lower my cars but he is talking mess this is my 1st mb so i have to ask

Its a E350 so no, its no harder than any other spring change, which I assume is how you are lowering? Maybe the springs are a little more expensive for the W212 but lowering for $200 range, thats great, let me know where and we'll both do it.

The E350 drives and rides great, but handling is a little lose.

lol im not saying was expecting to pay $200 what i really would like to know what is the average price everyone else was paying to lower the w212,only because my guy was saying it was harder than a normal car(whatever that means)

Welcome to MB ownership. The bump in cost is due to Mercedes Tax which will be applied to almost everything you do with your Mercedes except tolls and flat rate parking.

Yep! I Agree, just because you own a MB everything shot up in price with it. Anyhow, i paid about 200 for my lowering job.

Some car wash I called in Vegas (you'd be surprised at how hard it is to find a GOOD carwash there, and I was trying to be lazy and get a wash so I didn't have to wash AND wax my car on the same day) asked what kind of car I had. When I told them, the ditzy girl said "oh, it's $40 for a regular wash"... I said "With Wax"?, she said "No, they just charge that much for Mercedes'.
