2012 E350 Cabriolet and 2018 E350 Sedan
[QUOTE=LILBENZ230;8341209]Yes - for the one payment, you get:
Decided to give this a try since we can change our mind after 4 months. Ordered a blue XC40 T5 R-Design on Wednesday. Got the VIN yesterday. Delivery expected in 1-2 weeks. They load them up.. the starting price of the XC is something like just under $34k but the subscription cars are built to about $47k. Every package offered is included, as is the standalone Harman/Kardon sound system.
I have a Volvo XC60 that I drive alternately when driving my E350. I love it. Solid handling and very fast considering it’s an SUV. I only drive Volvos and Mercedes. Tried BMW 5 series and ended up giving it to my son after a year. Really for me they are the two best cars on the market hands down!
- 15k miles a year or 1250 per month since you can return it after 4 months
- Insurance through Liberty Mutual
- Road hazard tire and wheel protection
- Maintenance
- $1000 waiver for "excess" wear - interior damage, large dents/dings, windshield damage, etc.

It's amazing how polarizing that swoop is. Obviously, MB did some market research (too late, apparently) and most buyers/potential buyers didn't like it. I do. The 2014+ W212's look the same as all of the few remaining newish cars on the road from the side IMO. I do prefer the 2014 interior and taillights though. The taillights, I 'fixed" on my pre-facelift.
I think the pre-facelift car looks more stately, reminding me of my old W124. I removed the side chrome on my car because to me, on black, it makes it look too "wedgy" and installed the "new" taillights. The Ponton curves are good looking but they are often hard to see and the chrome strip(that I removed) makes it look to busy back there. Without the strip, I think it looks fantastic.

Hey BadBenz94, I would love to see how it looks without the chrome piece if and when you have a moment, Thanks!
I wonder if LilBenz230 got the Maverick yet?
