**My E300 4Matic Sport** Delivered
Had this car on order since ordering banks pretty much opened in March or April I believe. Finally just picked up my car on Friday. Thought I'd throw up some pictures.
The specs I built her at was:
Polar White
Black Leather
designo Black Piano Lacquer "Flowing Lines" wood
Heated and Ventilated Seats
Sport Wheel Package (18" AMG wheels)
Panoramic Roof
Rear Spoiler
P2 Package
Heated Steering Wheel
Comfort Box
AIR Body Control
All in all its a fantastic car. Very very happy with it.
I do have an error message coming from the AIR suspension saying: Malfunction: See owners manual with the picture of car rising on it, so I already have to take it in to the dealer to get it checked out.
Other than that, the car has been super smooth, the interior ambient light is nice and bright. The headlights do a sweeping motion when you first turn them on that looks very sharp. Everyone who has sat in the car was very pleased with it. The sound system is pretty damn good for being mid-level.
I'll put up more thoughts later on.
One thing I CANNOT stand is the stupid apple pay turning on when i put the phone in the charging area or cup holder. So annoying lol..

Got tints done in the morning. *35% all around.
Ordered plate frames for the front and rear from mercedes
(polished slim line for the front and polished for the rear)
Ordered benz wheel valve stem covers
Also ordered a replacement door lock from another mercedes (to replace that cheap plastic looking door lock.) Hopefully this works out lol, if it does i'll post up. Taking a gamble on that.

Thanks Viper =)
Thanks Josh, it was my 1 splurge item. I feel like the trim "makes" this interior.
Thanks Fisch =)
Update: Just finished installing all 4 door lock pins. I'll take a picture a bit later. They look great. For those interested, all 4 spin out and all 4 replacements are pressed on. The rears sit higher than the fronts for whatever reason but it doesn't look wrong by any means.
Got the tire stem valve caps and license plate frames as well, so i'll be installing that soon. Looking for that pesky roof spoiler now lol.

Very nice! I'm still waiting for my car to be on a ship next week. Car status just changed to B8 (ship assigned) so I expect it by the end of Sept. Do you know when your car was produced?

I dont have pics of the pins installed and my car is at the dealer at the moment trying to diagnose an issue with the air suspension. Up level malfunction apparently. Idk, they said theyre getting a regional master tech to look at it. That apparently takes a week.. so I wont have a chance to take a pic anytime soon.
This is what it looks like on the C class which is VERY similar

Im happy to say, all my suspicions were confirmed. It performs EXACTLY how I expected it to. It is a little faster than the E350. No you dont get that grunt feel or sound that the E350 had, and yes... to car guys that know what engines sound like, its unmistakably a 4 cylinder sound... but the car is by no means underpowered. Not once did I feel like it didn''t have enough passing power. It performs smoothly and effortlessly as one would expect from a mercedes. Gear shifts are clean and crisp and theres actually no real need to go to sport mode for day to day driving. (previously in the E350 it almost felt like you had to be in sport mode to get that peppy feel from the car). I dont feel that way with the E300. I dont regret one bit choosing this engine/car.
Thank you sir!
