Congratulations! I moved from a 213 to 214 (E350) after my 213 was hit from behind and totaled. I think you will find the 214 to be quieter, smoother, more comfortable, more luxurious...improved in almost every way (except for the exteriorbdoor handles). Enjoy.

Beautiful. What % off MSRP were you able to get. I already have one - but my buddy is deciding between 2025 in stock and custom ordering (like i did) 2026

I got 10% off msrp. I think that was good, especially considering that I needed a car right away and the salesman knew it. Negotiations began at 2% and the discount increased
2 percentage points each time I got up
to leave until it reached 10. Obviously, I had to take a car that was in stock so we ended up with most of the extras we wanted a some we didn't really want. We like the car.
Rounding off, I got just over 10% off, and refused to pay for some BS dealer add-on ($925). To better answer your question, I would not have ordered all of the options that came on this car if I were to custom order. For example, I don't need a Winter Package, or illuminated doorsills. So considering it had the paint, interior and wheels I would have ordered, I felt it was a fair deal, and best of all...no waiting (although it is the previous model year)
Too soon to give it a fair review. IMO, it is definitely a step up from the W213. Complaints - none. Quibbles - door handles are a gimmick, but cool how they pop out as you approach your locked car. And I do miss the volume wheel on the center console. More precise than the finger slides on the new car.

Wow - so about $8K. That is really good. I paid full MSRP for custom - but ordered at 450. But my buddy would be good with $6 - 8K. He too wants the 450. And has mostly found 350s in stock...
