2010 E350
My new 2010 E350
Picked this used 2010 E350 with ~20,000 miles up last Wednesday for my birthday 
I would post more pics but not really necessary as it is pretty stock and you guys know what these cars look like. Only mods so far are tint all the way around. 20% in the front and limo in the rear. Oh and I pulled off the rear e350 badges. I like the clean look of the rear trunk. I have some 20 mm spacers on the way for the rear wheels until I can buy a set of 19's in a couple months.
I had wanted to get the 550 with the v8 but wife wouldn't let me spend the extra coin. Plus I have a 604 whp mustang, so I can drive that if I want to go fast. Although, this v6 mated to a 7 speed tranny does have some good pick up.
I'm new to Mercedes but I love this car. I get luxury now. I have always been a muscle car guy, well still am. I guess I like them all.

Looks great man! Nice BDay gift! I love buying myself BDay cars.... Or buying myself Cars saying that it's my BDay gift when my BDay is coming up in half a year or so.
I'm a Muscle-Car guy at heart too, moved into the Luxury/Refinement lane. I want a V8 Mustang again! Perfect fleet: E-Class and a Mustang (Benz and a Muscle-car).

Thank you. I'm looking forward to enjoying it. I want to leave the car alone, but I have the mod bug. If I have my way it's going to get blacked out with some nice gun metal 19" wheels.
Yes I feel very lucky to have 2 great cars. My wife would have let me step up to the 550 if I sold the mustang, but I couldn't do it.
Oh, do you have any shots of your spoilers? I am thinking about adding those.
I'm thinking it will look good as well. Anything that gives it a wider stance is good in my book.
Ya, I looked at the new ones but it was to great of a deal to buy used. Practically brand new anyhow.
Thanks!

Sure!
Here's the OEM Setup on my 2011. I Vinyl wrapped the roof so this is a bit of a different look from how they'd look on a Pano car, or obviously a car with a monochromatically painted roof:
And if you don't go with the roof spoiler (which I'd only recommend the OEM so far as most aftermarkets look too big and bulky IMO), then I recommend getting this one (on my old 2010), got from "GNarly Autoparts", under $200 painted and delivered (last year, at least), good quality, and it's actually an imitation of the E63 wing technically.

Thanks
THank you
Very nice. I like the look. I'm definitely going to order a trunk spoiler. Has anybody had any luck with the pre-painted one on ebay? $150 ain't bad. I bought one for my mustang before and it was perfect, I just don't know if the quality would be the same.
THank you

LOL! Wellll, you know, I kind of put the farm into the E-Class so I gotta make sacrifices somewhere.... 
Actually I was just pulled over at that Gas Station to the right of it, and decided it was faux-Photoshoot time.

Vegas..Drunk..Club..Blurred senses..Hot Girl..Dancing..Getting steamy..Need a spot to go.. Too cheap to pay for a Hotel.. Hour ride to the cheapest place I could find (Bun Boy).. Undress.. Tranny.. Ah what the hell, already payed for the spot, gas, drove all this way.. Next morning, not so hot.. Vomit.. Shower (Bun Boy shower = Dirtier on my way out then on my way in).. Feeling low.. Outside.. Shiny Benz.. Cheering myself up.. Photoshoot to mark at least one pretty point about the trip..
I should really write the next Hangover Movie.

Okay, okayy, fine. I'll break it down:

The story sounded good for a moment, but you lost me at:
"Tranny.. Ah what the hell, already payed for the spot."
You had a transmission failure already? Did roadside assistance help and did the dealer cover it under warranty?
