I was at an appointment the other day in a waiting room, saw a man reading a BOOK and had to compliment him for doing so; I also had a book.....((don't have a cell/smart phone)) to read while I waited Not very often you see someone reading a book and not plugged into an electric device.....hence the recognition. I get National Geographic in the mail too

When I went to dealership the other day, took a book of short stories with me. Several other people there and one woman was also reading a book, but occasionally did something with her "phone." I have a flip type cell phone for emergencies mostly.

To date I have only ever seen mine and one other. This was from back in 2011 to commemorate the first car ever, invented by Karl Benz, the Benz Motorwagen (1886). It's only on W212 pre-facelift E Classes, they had a bunch with upgraded sports and entertainment options and Designo interiors. They also came with the upgraded NTG 4.5 nav that only the facelifted W212's got (before the facelift came along), and with special 125th Anniversary badging. Anyone else seen them?

It was a good deal at the time with a whole bunch of upgrades and a Designo interior all packaged together under a discount price to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the first car ever, that happens to be a Benz.

Will be purchasing an 2011 E350 wagon 125th anniversary edition this weekend.

Just for the record, my '12 and '13 have NTG 4.5, but it was special for 2011and it is a very nice car. My '12 has a Blue Efficiency logo in the same fender position.

2010 - 2012 W212 is still one of the best looking E-Class models of all time a decade later.

Congrats to the anniversary edition owners here.

Post more pics!

I was busking out front of my favorite pub tonight and saw a W212 go by with the 'hockey' stick LEDs and thought 'how cool'. Pretty sure it was a 350 though
