My Ride: alpine white 530d.exclusive leather,maple wood trim,comfort seats,active steering,xenons,18'alloys 124,steptronic,logic 7,ac-extended features,sunblind,side airbags
Question

Well guys did i scare ya all ? I just test drove an e class and man it was a big dissapointment

I expected a lot from it but it had nothing in it.it was slow,no technology,not sporty.the only good thing about

it was the ride and the space behind.Here in India they dont sell bigger engines like the e350 and the car is

not loaded at all.I have a 2004 accord and i swear i liked the music system in it more than the benz .The

interiors were well not my cup of tea.Too many buttons.i feel like i am 30 even though i am 19 when i drive

it.since i have no idea about the international e class which most of you must have sat in or test drove,can

you guys tell me how the mercedes feels with the bigger engine and all the options.

I ordered a 530d .And its a CBU (completely built unit).so it is fully loaded and i paid a lot for it cause

its not available in india.guys will i be satisfied with my ride.i never sat in an e60 nor test drove one.

so people who drove both the cars,can u tell me which one is better. .And oh yeah this

forum rocks.

did you try the -4 matic' my neighbor bought one the same day i bought my e60.

She just told me 'great minds think the same'

She was referring to the fact that we both got a new car at the same time for the second time

I think you should be very pleased with the car, I drive 530d myself, and I couldn't be happier....well in M5 I probably would...

Mine is not loaded, so you should be even happier than I am

Congrats for your choise!!!
