Hi All,

Need input fast as I have ordered a 2020 E350 but, have a few days to change to E450 if I want.

I have been driving a 2017 E300 for about 3 yrs and love it but, maybe this new one should be a 450?

What are reasons to get one over the other if price nor the little mileage differences don't matter to me.

Do those who have had both have any input?

I may keep the car for more than 3 yrs so is the 6 cyl more reliable than the 4 cyl long term (I put 15-20K miles on/yr)

Really appreciate any suggestions/direction.

THANKS, Steve

if money wasnt that matter - i suggest you test drive one. You probably make a quick decision

get the e450, the e300 is like a honda compared to that engine. maybe 10% increase in fuel but you wont even see that over the engines power increase.

The 4 cyl engine is very noisy especially if you drive with a window open.

Small price difference in the us so I would go with the 450. Also heard that the electrification on the 350 is not that great, its not integregated so its not like a unit and very clumsy.
