The Mercedes e550 is a beautiful looking car. at the same time, so is the Audi S5. they are so equally beautiful in design its unbelievable...ahh! Bmws suck, especially the hideous 335i. Mercedes and Audi ftw!!
when this first came out we (everyone @ the dealership) all wur thinking, "...if darth vader drove a car and not a star destroyer, he'd probably be behind the wheel of an E550 coupe..."
I traded my 07 CLK 550 Cab for the 2010 E550 Coupe a few days ago!!! Btw, I NEVER buy an USED car because I see that your car is ONLY 8 days old when you revved it up to 6000 RPM!!! Lease or Purchase, it is your car but do let the cylinder heads and bores settle for 4000 miles before you go buck wild could ya......
i broke it in per the specifications. drove A LOT of miles after purchase. now i've let loose (7000 miles now!) and it's unbelievably quick. i should load a video with tire spin and launch w/DSC off.
I felt a little cheated after I learned that the chassis was based on the C Class. I mentally complained about it after the purchase and she told me to shut the @#@% up. Good woman, I'm gonna keep her.
I own the 2010 E350 coupe, and even with the V6 I've stayed dead even with the "ultimate driving machine" between lights. BMW is nothing less than an excellent automaker but the new coupes from Mercedes are beautiful, strong and very quick. Many BMW owners in my neighborhood give the car a good stare when I pass by. For those of you relating it to an Infiniti or a Hyundai, re-post a comment when you're realeased from the mental institution. Nice 550 cmcint7. Same color as mine!
I'd smoke your 335. 4.8 to 60 with an automatic. Regardless I had an M3 so you can forget about me wishing to have a roundel on the hood. And the Benz has a few things the bimmer doesn't, such as elegance, luxury, and comfort. It's sexier, too. Plus how would I chauffeur when there's only two doors?
yeah right... i did get smoked by an M3 on the highway though! to be expected. the 335 is a horrible car, i used to be a BMW loyalist (owned 4, including 2005 M3) but i hate what they've done with the design.
nice car if you want to be chauffeured around....But as far as performance goes, my 335i would run circles around you and make you wishing you had a roundel on your hood.
Dude, your bimmer is ugly. It will probably catch up with MB... but only in a straight line... and only to some point. Come to any car gathering, and the only things running circles around this E550 will be all of people.... and your "roundel" will only have flies circling it.
Are you kidding me? The new design for the e-class is horrific. If not THE worst design, completely disproportional, even though it is "sharper." This is just a revamped Hyundai Sonata*. Check out the similarities: You are blind if you cannot see how similar these cars are.
I will always prefer my 2008 e550 to this "Hyundai" looking piece of crap. Mercedes completely ruined the car's rear end. The Front looks very stylish and futuristic, while the back will always make me think it's a Hyundai Genesis. Overall, the motor is awesome. You should have gotten something better looking for the money. My 2008 e550 > your crap. Sorry
i agree, i pulled up next to a 200x CLK500 and my 2010 e550c looked much sharper, more aggressive, and sexier. this hyundai comparison is ridiculous, i don't see it

Amazing car man! The only thing I don't like is the dashboard design, kind of an old design...but not a deal breaker by all measures!

Is the e550 one hell of a machine? Yes.

Too bad your summary is rare in opinion.
The new Es are significantly nicer overall than the 03-08, which looks more bland, almost Japanese.
This is toned and sharp. An 03-08 E is a fine machine AND is CRAP compared to the 2010s.

You know, IMAproductionz, you don't have to be that rude...in my opinion, I don't think it looks like a genesis, but even if it does, it looks good!
