Here are the options:

Arctic white w/almond (black roof liner, black floor)
Pano roof
P02
Sport
23k miles
No accidents
Balance of warranty

Excellent condition... only gripe so far is the "creaking" sound, coming from where the CD/DVD and its immediate surroundings are, while driving through road imperfections

Why on earth does such a beautiful vehicle come with halogen license plate lights???

I hope I did good price wise... $39.7k out the door.

congrats ! swap out the license plate lights is an easy task. just get some error free led bulbs.

Sounds like a good deal to me too
Happy driving

How does MB factory warranty work? Is it like BMWs? Do I have to wait for service intervals or can I bring it in now regarding that creaking sound from the center console?

A little confused...

Nice car. Is it a Certified Pre Owned? You might not have much time left on factory 4 year warranty since it's a 2010. Definitely get it looked at before factory runs out.

It is not a CPO. I will schedule an appt. very soon

Congrats on the unit! P2 and Pano roof, very good.

i think you have confused warranty and maintenance. you can take your car in whenever you found or feel like there is a problem and that's warranty work. change oil, wipers or all other regular maintenance works are not free like bmw. it's your choice to bring it in when any of the service lights come up or before that. as for the creaking sound, you can schedule an appointment with your service adviser and that is warranty work. no charge. don't forget to reserve a loaner if needed. btw, as most know, bmw's four-year free maintenance is not free. it's part of the cost of the car. good luck with the creaking sound issue .

Wow, that looks just like my first W212! Exact color and Options setup as well.

Are you the 2nd or 3rd owner? Mine also was bought by someone in the East Coast after I traded out of it in mid 2011 and had creakings in those same areas.

tk9

2nd owner. I hope those creaks go away or my SA can help me do something about it..

tk9

Thanks for the clarification. I think I can do most scheduled maintenance... Is the cost of ownership high for this particular model?

Cyber GS

Very nice, I really like the E in white.

Congrats

Any suggestions for good license plate LEDs ? Not too bright Also, is it hard to do the install?

BM2BZ

any error free with not too many smd should be ok. it's not difficult to install at all. just need to pull open the trunk liner and that's about it. good luck .

Nice car i just picked up a 2011 p2 and i love it!!

Nuru

BTW, I am working on a deal on a CPO 2012 Arctic white 4MATIC SPort, with 12k miles on it, P2, Parktroninc (Parking Guidance), Lane tracking package (Blind spot A, lane keeping assist), Pano roof a few more options. Hopefully for $46k

You didn't pick up your car at a South Atlanta dealership did you? I saw one just like it and was contemplating it in white...but decided on black instead. The PO2 was a big draw for me... I didn't get mine with PO2...and am missing the xenon and keyless start that my Lexus used to have. It's hard to imagine that a Nissan Altima comes with Keyless entry and start...but a MB puts it in a 6k option package. Finding a used E350 with PO2 was rare... I guess not many people were willing to shell out that much extra $$ for it...looks like you got a great deal on it. Congrats... gorgeous car

I was hoping for a black car myself, but this was too good of a chance to let it go by.

Dropped it off at the dealer Thursday, they said to leave it until Monday because the part they ordered was wrong. I said no, I'll pick it up Friday and bring it back Monday.... I don't hear the creaking noise from the center console anymore but after further inspection it looks like they broke the trim just above and that's why they need it on Monday... They should've just been up front.

tk9

Turns out the "master tech" didn't do such a great job of seating the new trim piece in place... After a close inspection I also found that the hazard light indicator is very loose to the touch. They said that they would order a new one and call me when it arrived so that I may bring the car back

I hope they get it right this (3rd) time... Also I think that I may need new tires because when reaching speeds over 90 mph i start to feel some vibration (original tires)?

I detest the "egg yolk" effect that the front headlights display. Is it a simple task to switch out the turn signals bulbs with stealth (silver) bulbs? It looks as though the headlights may need to come off (among other components)...

A few pictures of the w212...
