Finally NEW E-Class is released!!!

Hey guys,
E class W213 is finally there. The exterior is amazing. Looks very large in person. 4.92cm tall. I drive the C cass w205 and because the C class already has this amazing design and tech I was less blown away by the design than for example a BMW or Audi driver would be.

I like the integrated display and the fact that there is more space and tech in the new E (64 different colors of ambient lighting). I don't like the touchpads on the steering wheel. Buttons are better.

Have a look:

Honestly, I'm really glad I purchased my 2016 W212. Not a fan of the C-class design.

Ordinarily I would be excited but from what I have seen with BMW, the older tech cars are better at everything except high-tech gadgetry and fuel economy.

The interior is nice, but honestly without a non AMG NA v8 option they wont be getting my money.

I agree. I still own drive a 211 and 212. My 211 is a lot less technical but the comfort and plush aspect of the interior of the 211 is superior. The tech in the 212 I've never used as it's way too unfriendly. Whenever we can use the system like our Iphones and Siri, they will have it down. Otherwise why use these combersome tech gadgets in these cars when my phone does it all and does it much better. I don't even have to touch a button to operate my phone.

New 5 series is about to release maybe this year. Looking out for it. I don't expect it to be better than the 7 series though. So we will see

Agreed. I don't have any plans to update the nav disk in my 2012 when WAZE does a better job of rerouting me with realtime traffic updates on my daily communte.
