I am coming back "home" to an E
It has been a while since we turned in our last E Class lease. I have been going between E350 and BMW 535 for many years.
Was on the fence and was not sure which car to lease. But after seeing and test driving the 2012 E350s it was a clear choice for my wife and me that it was going to be the E this time.
In production as we speak.
E350 4 matic (need it in the Northeast although this past winter was very mild)
321 Sport package
040 /101 Black on black. (we seem to always like that combination)
P02 package - (wanted the Xenons - and the comfort access )
104 Rear Spoiler
137 Comfort box
287 Split rear seats
413 Panorama sunroof
443 Heated Steering wheel
731 Burl wood
873 Heated front seats
Looking forward to being back and participating on this forum.

Great choice!
As M-B used to say in the teutonic W126 years, and brought back for the W212 in early interior press material to further drive home the spiritual successor it is to those classic >80's Benzes; "Welcome Home".

well done!
as much as bmw improved on the 5 series via performance, looks, styling etc.... the w212 e class is still a cut above. gorgeous styling, great performance and screams class.
btw, i know you test drove a MY2012 but did you order a MY2013? and when is expected delivery?

I signed papers for one of the remaining 2012s being produced. The May lease programs are very aggressive with 62% residuals on 33 month leases (12K a year). And heavy discounts (along with conquest) bring the monthly to low amount.
I suspect the 2013s will not have aggressive leases until later on in the year or next.

There are still many 2012s out there. Your dealer should be able to find one that meets your needs.
