Picked up my wife's '12 E350 the other day, a great vehicle! Tenorite grey, 4matic, amg trim, wheels. 14kmi it's like new inside and out, 1.74% MB financing, three years MB warranty plus an extended, three years MB service, with valet service to/from my wife's office ( a major plus).

Such a great vehicle for her, and stunning inside and out. She was pressured to trade her ML for a prius at the non-profit she was in before. Now in healthcare she was getting crap about the prius! she was eager to get back to a Mercedes. This morning she drove off in 8 inches of snow, and wrote from her office "Great in the snow, and love my bluetooth!"(bluetooth in the prius was a nightmare(edit: everything but mileage was a nightmare in the prius!).
Here's a blurry picture that shows her E class still shivers outside while my CLK63 cabrio is california dreaming under cover in the messy garage.

Great looking car, love the color.

Is Tenorite Gray the same as Steel Gray in the US?

Nice, congrats!
I hope your wife wont develop PTSD from being trapped in that Prius.

the hardest part of going from a MB to a prius is, obviously, the build quality...the doors buzz like tin cans when you shut them. the dash is the lightest gauge plastic, the dash has three screens plus a hud and of course to get to highway speed you have make the thing whine like a dentists drill. (but again ...50mpg to the ML's 16mpg on premium!)
she shut the door on the E for the first time and said "ahhhh that's the sound"

No, she doesn't! My wife buys the first car she looks at, 100% of the time. This time I kind of took the lead and did the purchase for her.

It had the flat badge on it at the dealer, they swapped it back out for the "correct" upright. makes for a more classic look imo.
