i drive them all, fast and hard
e400
so i just noticed that they using a 3 liter biturbo in this car, with decent power and torque. Is it supposed to replace the 350 3.5 NA engine or will they be sold together at different levels.
Its a shame there is no 550 any more in this range. My father was looking at the E, and i guess i may steer him to the 400 as it is new tech and should be a better motor
anyone have it , any opinions

The E400 is the replacement for the E550. I think in the next generation of E-class will not have the 3.5 liter engine. They still offer the CLS550.

2018 E300 Luxury - P3 and more
Dissenting opinion here -- I bought a 2015 E350 due to the fact that it is an older, proven engine with fewer moving parts (no turbos). I didn't want to be the guinea pig. It's the same reason I won't buy the first year of a new car.

2015 E550 in Canada
Given the very favourable exchange rate (US$1 = CD$1.16), he could get one amazing deal. You could check out the 2015 E550 @ www.mercedes-benz.ca
The list price with Premium package is CD$80,600 or US$70,000.

id like to get the 550 instead too, but im not sure the rules on buying in canada as a california resident and what that involves
right now he loves his w220 2001 S500, but its falling to bits,
we have a 2010 s550 but he hates the seats, and he is thinking about the new S, but doesnt want to spend that much right now
he drove the e350 2 yrs ago, and wasnt impressed, drove it again recently and likes it
he wants a soft cushy ride, doesnt care for big hp numbers etc..
ill get him in to the cars and see, might try 6 series grand couipe too

i think the hp and tq numbers in the e400 are fine, they are close to his previous cars in the w220 s500 and w140 S500 that we have had.
will see if he really wants an E after having 4 generations of S classes
