The E doesn't have the Distronic Plus, but the C got it. If you're driving 40 miles each day, Mercedes will spoil you with the safety Driver assistance package (assistance only, not a replacement).
I like the thigh support of the C, but will it eliminate the small comfort boxes in front of the seats the E has?
Take both of them for a mixed test drive. City roads and interstate. See how responsive both of them are.
My biased suggestion: E400.
Better power, better braking.

Fair point. However, usually when you have a nice car you want to drive your friends around in it. Having said that, a coupe is reason to make a girl climb in the back and... who doesn't enjoy watching that? 
Also, I missed that he was 24. Nice job being able to land one of these at 24 years old. 15 years ago me is envious.

thank you guys. I really appreciate your help.
I went to test drive both of them.
The E class was a true Merc as expected. but I realized it wasnt that much different from my current W212 E350 2011.
and for the C coupe, as I said these new W205’s they feel more like a light base german car.
So I decided to just get a W213 E300 which is what I was looking for. it has most of the modern technology and looks. I will post a pics when I got it.
once again thanks alot guys. cheers!
