2014 E350 4MATIC Luxury model
Luxury Models

Are luxury models no longer available? Seems like all the models are sports models. I have a 2014 E350 luxury model and I was looking to trade in for a newer model, but cant find one.
I'm not a sports model type chick! lol

I'm currently driving around in a sport model as my car is at the dealer....... I like the Luxury model better also. I don't know if my seat of pants feeling is correct or not, but the suspension soaks up the bumps just a tiny bit more. In Los Angeles, that is valuable.

Am fairly certain there are still newer e class models with luxury package, even up to the w213, they are rare because in most cases the sport option were a no-cost option. I heard the c classes are completely getting rid of the luxury package as a whole

the luxury package usually just has the star mounted hood ornament instead of the star on grille, softer suspension, and smaller wheels and tires. I know the w211 models had covered exhaust tips and different colored glass. Not sure on the 212

Since I was trading out of a BMW 535 xi , I opted for sport suspension and staggered AMG wheels. Sport suspension is a few inches lower and stiffer. I guess it is to what you have become accustomed . That being said I would think that either sport or luxury .. it is still a MB.
BTW the mechanical problems and maintenance on my past three BMWs makes me happy I switched brands.
