2010 E550 Coupe vs. 2012 C350 Coupe
Hello everyone,
I'm looking for some opinions on the following comparison: 2010 E550 Sport Coupe vs. 2012 C350 Sport Coupe.
I am looking at these two as possibilities for my first car, so I don't want too much of an "old person" look. For this reason, I am comparing the sport coupe versions. They currently can both be found at relatively similar prices, so I would like to hear which you would choose and why. Acceleration of the C350 is about 5.8 seconds 0-60, while acceleration of the E550 is about 5.1 seconds 0-60. The faster the better, but I would undoubtedly sacrifice some speed for an overall more fitting car. I very much like the idea of having a 550 V-8, but I also like that the C350 would be a little newer and sportier.
Thanks!

I've owned both - and would absolutely go with the newer E-350 - but beauty is ALWAYS in the eye of the beholder. You are not going to notices much difference unless you are doing a lot of racing type driving. Good luck with your decision! Cheers,
