Overview & Reviews

A favorite in the midsize luxury car class, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class has provided an appealing mix of comfort, performance and safety for decades. The trademark qualities of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, such as vaultlike solidity and cutting-edge technology, have also contributed to the E-Class' great popularity among luxury buyers.

Over the years, the E-Class has been offered as a sedan, wagon, coupe and convertible. Contemporary E-Class models come loaded with luxury features and offer stunning acceleration in higher trim levels, with diesel power available if you want to maximize your fuel economy. The E-Class has never been the sportiest car in its segment, but its handling has improved significantly in recent years. Rivals are better in certain respects, but if you're looking for the complete package in a medium-size luxury car, an E-Class will be hard to beat.

  Beware of Certified Pre-Owned - 2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By KGinthedesert - June 11 - 5:36 am

  I lost a BMW 528 in an accident and needed a car. Found this sharp platinum blue / parchment E320 with chrome wheels. After one week, the brake problems started. Ive had the car a year and the break problems went away for one week when something else broke. I took it in to have the other problem fixed and the brakes were bad again. The certified warranty is up and so is my luck. Ill not only never buy from this dealer, but wont buy a Benz again.

  Thanks Rudolf - 1995 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By andrew - June 1 - 2:43 am

  Bought my 95 E300D in Jan of 07 with 282,000 miles on it and 1" Benz 430 wheels with a spare in the trunk. I have put almost 20k more on it with 12K+ using Biodiesel B99/B100. On the Bio, this car is as quiet and smooth as a Corolla. It is also great with an Elsbett veggie oil kit. Plus, in LA stop and go, the car averages 25-27mpg, which is almost the same as my wifes 2000 Corolla. This car is a solid as they come. I hope that it never gets totaled.

  My luxury SUV sedan - 2001 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By Boston MB owner - May 24 - 10:00 am

  Simply put this car has power and handle in the worst weather condition! Its almost unreal how well it got through snow, rain, etc in the Northeast (Boston). It also carries the legend of the three pointed star ( great ride, comfort, dependability,room,etc ). Im glad I didnt go the ML route and the G wagon just isnt my cup of tea. The e430 4matic is all the 4 wheel drive I need. My family loves it. I highly reccomend the Starmark warranty because you will want to keep this one for a long time. The A6 4.2 or older A8 AUDI is not even close to this one. If you need a awd sedan youll now what Im talking about.

  The E320 - 1998 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By Midkey - May 24 - 2:00 am

  This has been a fantastic car. Im considering a new E320 or E500, but I cant bring myself to sell this one. It had a few small problems with bulbs blowing out. The local Benz dealership fixed the problem after several visits. Fortunatley, it was covered under warranty. The ride is exceptional as is everything else about the E320. I think Ill stay with the E class because it is easy to get around in the city yet still has a big car feel.
