Overview & Reviews
The Mercedes-Benz E300D and E320 receive the driver-adaptable five-speed automatic transmission. The E-Class also has a smart sensor to determine if anyone is sitting in the passenger seat and to determine whether or not to deploy the airbag. The E420 can be had with a Sport Package.
- Beautiful nose, light-hearted design, rock-solid construction, and the panache of owning a Mercedes. What more could you want?

I got it for my 16th b-day - 1997 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By rodgerdodger90 - December 2 - 8:30 pmDont get me wrong here, Mercedes-Benz makes some great cars and I believe this is one of the greatest. My mom had it first, then she bought the 2000 S-Class and gave this to me. this car has great pick-up speed, never looks old really, and its simple and practical luxury. Catches the eye everywhere you go and never ashamed to valet park. I think its their best sedan.

Great Car Technology - 1997 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By Carroll001 - February 15 - 6:46 pmI bought this car 1.5 months ago with only 67,500 miles and it drives great! Previous owner took great care of this car and it shows. Only basic maintenance required over a nine year period! I had this car thoroughly checked by a mechanic and myself on rack and was amazed at the great condition of this car. If you take care of these cars they will last for a long time. I plan to get 300,000 miles from this car.

Ten years with my E320. - 1997 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By Thomas G Lambach - November 15 - 11:56 pmBought new in 96, an excellent package in terms of its exterior size, interior space and cargo volume. Handles well and is a pleasure to drive, especially on the freeway where it just glides along. Highway fuel economy has been as high as 27.75 mpg (Models EPA was 20/27). IMHO, in good condition the E320 is a screaming used car bargain, but only if its in good condition.

Best used car I ever bought! - 1997 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By Damsel - July 31 - 10:00 amI bought this car as a big, safe alternative to my SUV and Ill never go back! There were over 100k miles when I bought it and its never given me one minutes pause. Ive only had to do routine maintenance and hope to drive for a few more years.

Great Reliable Car - 1997 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By Spencer Brown - July 24 - 10:00 pmWe bought this car which was a demo by the seller at the dealership. We havent had any major problems exept for the back drivers side window wouldnt roll up one day, but we had to buy a new window motor for it, which it was under warranty at the time. It is a very comfortable ride and the emblem on the front makes the driver feel like royalty. It gets preety good gas milege exept for the fact we put premium gas in it while we put regular in my Tahoe. Overall this has been and excellent car. It would be perfect if the servicing wasnt so expensive!!

1997 E-320 - 1997 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By P Savage - June 21 - 10:00 amClassy car with a touch of flare. Fun to drive around town and extremely comfortable on long trips. The trunk can swallow four large suitcases and there is plenty of room for five adults. I cant find anything I would change, and I cant think of another car I would rather own.

First Benz and I love it. - 1997 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By MARK98115 - April 25 - 10:00 amThis is my first Mercedes and I could not be happier. This car actually makes me want to go and drive somewhere. It has the perfect balance of everything I want in a car - looks, performance, comfort and reliabiliy. I also find it very interesting that it has excellent visibility while driving at night. I assume that whatever the windshield is made of, it does a good job of filtering out the glare of oncoming traffic. Keeping in mind that this is a 4 door sedan, I five the car very high marks for the way it handles corners and country (twists and turns) driving, while the engine has plenty of power (and torgue) for passing, merging or just getting up to speed.
