Go big or go home.. E63..

But really it depends on your driving style and where you live.

the E350 and E200 has a very big difference in HP..

2010 E350 Luxury Sedan, Engine 272 (V6)
The E350 is best car M-B makes as far as reliability, cost to operate, etc. Of course
M-B is about mid-pack in overall reliability. Would look at the second and third threads on this site and make sure any TSB's have been taken care of.
Actually, I have no idea what an E200 is. Is it even available in US?
Do know the E550 is much more expensive to purchase, to insure and to maintain. The E63 is even more.
I have been very happy with my E350 Luxury Sedan, but I also purchased an extended warranty, primarily to cover the electronics, computers, multiple motors (seats, mirors, etc.) and all that stuff.
