2017 GLE350 4MATIC
Read threads about suspension, and check any vehicles for sale for this. From reading this forum, suspension complexity seems higher for the E-Class than on the C-Class. Electronic and air suspensions in the MB arena have a mixed level of reliability.

2019 GLC300, 2017 E300
Did the research, not too much that seems vehicle specific that I'd be concerned about. Wife has a GLC, I'm picking up a CPO 17 e300. I did not get airmatic suspension, I stuck with the sport model. Not getting one w/ the premium 3 just due to complexity.

'17 E300
I have a '17 E300, it's a sport with P3.
To me, most of the worthwhile features are built into the car, safety etc. What I enjoy most is probably the adaptive cruise. Sitting in traffic, I can turn it on and do something else while the car deals with traffic. On the highway it keeps the car in its lane and will brake if someone stops suddenly.
Next would be the HUD, I had this in previous cars and am used to not looking at the speedometer, rather just glancing down a bit to see how much over the speed limit I'm going.
Rest of the car is a bunch of gimmicks made to make people feel better about how much money they spent.
