If it was me, I wouldn't care. I don't really like Mercedes-benz much. I've always been a BMW fan. But he said me may just lease the E class for 2 years, then come back to the 5 series. If that's the case, I guess I don't mind, but I'd much rather have a 5 series!!!!!!!

The E350 has 272 hp (200 kW), which is a little bit more than the 530i has (190 kW).

Ann Arbor isn't too far from where I live. In fact, thats where we got our 5 series from! BMW of Ann Arbor! But, their service SUCKS so we aren't buying from them again. Ann Arbor is 25 miles west from where I live btw.

There's a couple of reasons for that. First of all, my dad doesn't really care about horsepower so he would never get a 530xi. Second, he said he was at the BMW dealership sitting in a 2007 E60 and he said it felt exactly the same as his 2004 E60.
If it was me, I wouldn't care. I don't really like Mercedes-benz much. I've always been a BMW fan. But he said me may just lease the E class for 2 years, then come back to the 5 series.
