Didn’t find this posted before (with the E400W).

Nice find

So the e400tt starts $3k
More than the outgoing more powerful e550tt??!!!

 

Hadn't really compared the two ..

Note that the E400 sedan (Sport only) comes standard with the Premium 1 Package and split fold-down rear seats - added options for last year's E550 at $4320 and $440 respectively.

Compared to the tarted-up MY14 E350 build checked online - the E400 price wasn't too bad.

Touché, thanks for the info. So the e400 is like the 550... Available in sport trim only?

I take it that it comes standard with sport steel springs and airmatic is extra

 

Worth studying

 

That is what it looks like - the E400 is a bit cheaper than the E550 about $ 2K but still a lot. I wonder how much a comparable BMW 535 i costs.

 

Thanks for posting that.

I helped MBUSA make 839 acoustic laminated glass happen as an option for the USA! (More like I think I reminded someone that they needed to add it to the ordering materials when I was ordering my car and requested that option. They sort of overlooked it.) Too bad I coudln't add more options for the US market.

 

$300 for the laminated side windows is so worth the price. Now if they could bring it to the ML that would be awesome.

 

what is laminated window option ?

 

I will second that question. Is it an option that should be considered on the sedan ??

839 Acoustic Laminated Glass $300 plus $250 SPC

Edit: Did the research - called in the added option.

 

If I am reading this correctly, it would appear that they are going to offer the E400 in LUXURY TRIM for 2015. In 2014, it was only available as a Sport model. Can anyone confirm this?

 

If you add more than one special option do you pay one $250SPC fee or one per special option?

 

Did a quick search to verify ..

The SPC adder is a one-time charge (that is - if you order one or ten-plus SPC options - you only pay the one $250 SPC charge).

The laminated acoustic glass option cuts down road and wind noise vastly; in the W221, you can barely hear the horn when you honk someone. When I first got that car, I thought there was a malfunction but soon realized it was the insulation. Also, laminated glass prevents break-ins as the glass will only crack, but not shatter - like your windshield.

 

The laminated glass is on the four door windows and is two pieces of glass glued together to cut down on road noise by up to 10db.

 

Can this be added aftermarket?

 

The e400 has all the options that I would order anyways and seems like a good value. Power mirrors, ventilated seats, leather, even the dash is nicer mb tex. I don't know about the reliability of the turbo though.

 

You can do it exfactory, not aftermarket. All you'd need is just the new OEM glass (four power windows). (Aftermarket suggests using non OEM parts).
