Your salesperson/dealer should be able to send you a picture of exactly what your car will look like, but perhaps in a different color. Also should be able to tell you better than anyone what front looks like.
In 2010, there was a luxury version, sports version and I believe an AMG option. The sports package is the most often sold because that is what most dealers order. In order to get the luxury version, I had to special order it from Germany.
BTW, it is all a matter of taste, but IMO the luxury version is superior to the sport version. In truth, neither is superior to the other, but the luxury rides more comfortably because it is designed to.
Talk to the dealer!

I could be wrong but I think that with P2 you get the hockey stick DRLs even with the luxury package.My luxury version doesn't have P2 and the DRLs are plain and round.Don't have a photo.

its all good man, its kind of funny because i kind of fell off when it comes to the car scene and car forums since i sold my E46 M3 a few years ago and had some more practical cars in between and to save some money -now i got this car coming to me and decided to pop in here to ask a question i should indeed, technically have had the answer to, but i sort of got a great last minute deal on the car and didnt research extensively-- therefore i kind of knew that reaction was coming, its kind of typical of internet car forums lol. some things dont change. it was humorous to me so dont worry im not mad.

picking the car up tomorrow evening though, cant wait, and i will post some pics up even though you guys have seen a stock iridium/panorama/p2/sport e350 dozens of times im sure

What's wrong with us? Not getting on his knees? You're delusional.

Some here went out of their way to quickly answer his plea "PANIC MODE" for urgent help and after all that not only doesn't the guy even have the courtesy to say thanks, but rather "forget it" and dish out insults.

You done crying about me not thanking you IMMEDIATELY after you "WENT OUT OF YOUR WAY" to post about daytime running lights?

No? Not yet?

Ok man I will wait, let me get you some tissues. I know some are more emotional than others. You sure someone isnt dumping estrogen pills into your cereal in the morning?

By the way RJC - there is no reason to list every single car youve smelled in your lifetime in your signature.

Your continued words or lack thereof the appropriate ones, speak volumes about the type of person you really are. Nice going, you're a real gentleman and thank you for furthering the spirit of common courtesy and forum decorum

learn to spell before you get all fancy with your sentences and rambling, and let me point back to who become the irate one and the "courteous and classy" one on page 1 over nothing.

hint: it wasnt me.

Have a nice day bud, and try to get a life.

This thread was your first post on the forum, nice start here and your latest response only continues to prove my point. Drawing attention to an omitted letter in a word I used in order to detract from your shortcomings isn't helping your case. We haven't had someone like you here in quite sometime; last guy kept digging himself deeper until he was no more...hint...the only way to get out of a hole is to stop digging.

I didn't (only the MB's), there's not enough characters allowed in the signature for that.

Curious to what you paid..?
PM if you don't feel like making it public.

I went to a dealer 3 days ago to shop for an 2011 but no spectacular deals.
Perhaps in July to make room for the August 2012s...?

I don't know what I have just read was really serious or not. IMO Lesson #1. Dont ask for input from members in this community that truley know the automotive industry and are passonate about the MB212 and then... "blast" em. Not a good way to make friends and influence people (unless you wanna be known as a "poser" and "skank". Lesson #2 come back under a different user name next time you want help, because I dont think too many people are going to put you at the top of there list. Enjoy the car...Remember "R" stands for Reverse, "D" for drive. The more you press on the gas pedal...the faster you will go. Oh...and stay off any roads I am going to be driving on PLEASE!

That's typical for S FL but some on this forum have recently obtained pretty sweet deals on '11 350's. I would also suggest you go back at the very end of the month, dealers seem to wake up during this time.
