Mine is a 2006. But my dealer told me that they are no longer issuing "the old style key" when I asked what kind I was getting.

I don't really see what all the fuss about the newer key is. Its look a little bit more current and has chrome. WHO CARES.
i have both keys & the chrome one stays in my bedroom drawer as a backup. i might as well use the already worn key not that it matters because it doesn't leave my pocket anyway thanks to keyless go! which is the best key imo.

unless I lose a key fob or 1 stops working and im forced to replace, u will catch me dead before u catch me spending $300+ for a new fob because my perfectly fine keyfob is dated or worn ..what a waste, i'd rather put that money towards mods. or tires. anything besides a key

2005 E55 AMG
THIS, in private chat with my fellow montrealer I was saying how 500 for a key? That's 1/30 of what I payed for the car. I can chuck a new H/E on there for that price...Pretty ridiculous, but if you had money to burn and you want to update the looks of the car...sure why not.
