Strength:

Fast, nimble, comfortable, fun! Tons of safety features including reinforced steel. Large trunk space, good sound system.

Weakness:

Leg room limited in back. Sports handling is not always as smooth when driving over bumps at high speed.

I have owned this car since 1999 (lease). I have had a few minor problems, and the rotors had to be replaced, but overall this car has been awesome. It has great handling and it is very comfortable on the inside. When my husband drives it, he says - "this car is a machine" because it can accelerate fairly quickly in high speed (tip tronic). It has great handling around corners and during U-turns (I love this stuff). It's a very high-quality car and the audi service teams in both San Diego County and Ventura County have been great. You get treated like you are the most important customer at all times.

Strength:

comfort, handling, and speed. Mercedes claim a 130 mph top speed because of the governor... but i was able to hit 146-147 mph.

Weakness:

most Mercedes Dealer are a**holes!

had only two minor problems for the past 3 years. catalytic converter made pingin noise... luckily it was still under warranty or it would have cost me over 2,000 bucks to repair it. overall the car still runs smoothly and comfortably as if it was still brand new.

Strength:

Nice ride, great handling, Sport turns heads.

Weakness:

The only weaknes is their SERVICE. It is the worst you will find. No one cares about you. they need to learn from Lexas. But I love their cars. To bad Lexas can't service them!!

This is the third Merc I bought in two years. Ml 320, SLK 230, The E is a great car, sport is the best one to have and I love the ride, gas mileage and comfort. Dealer stinks. Both dealers in San Diego could care less how many cars you bought from them. They give the worst service ever. They even gave me a Sentra loner when I brought my SL 500 in!!! Might switch to a real service company next time. They just don't care. I even wrote to MBUSA and they didn't care at all.

Strength:

Very good looking compared to other cars at that price.

Weakness:

Cost of Labor at a Benz dealership!!

This car is great! Its about 15 yrs old, and has 178K miles on it, but still running perfect. Just put in gas and drive the car, and every 3000 mile change the oil, thats it. Im really happy. I had this car since junior year in high school, now im a sophmore in college, and I plan to keep it until i graduate.

Strength:

This automobile does everything well. Excellent handling, good acceleration and excellent braking.

Weakness:

I have had to replace the windshield washer fluid reservoir three times in the past 18 months due to leakage. Each time it was replaced by an authorized MB dealer. I wrote to MB of America with no reply from them. I believe the replacement part is defective.

Superb autobile. Excellent quiet ride. Everything one would expect in a Mercedes Benz.

Strength:

-221 HP engine: A dream, pure and simple. -Seats & seating position: Impossible not to get comfortable; still feel fresh as a daisy after 500 miles. -Prestige: Beatiful pre-owned Benz costs less than new Camry. Which would you rather have? -Outstanding resale value.

Weakness:

-Cup holders in glove box. Where are real ones? -Complicated A/C controls -Big, bulky ignition key/alarm device -Maintenance & repairs cost small fortune.

Car oozes quality. Quiet, powerful, stable, and precise - everything Mercedes is known for.

Model Reviewed: E320

Strength:

Luxury uncompromised by the best Europe has to offer. Powerful engine. Smooth and refined. Interior layout is very easy to get use to. Materials are first class.

Weakness:

Very expensive maintenance costs. No climate control airconditioning. Not as sporty as the Audi A6 or BMW 5 series. Original tires are very poor.

The E320 is very impressive with all the luxury features you can think of. The car has a little bit of power available whenever you want it but keep in mind that this is a heavy car, which is the compromise if you want luxury. The thing i was most curious about was why Mercedes didn''t make climate control airconditioning as standard equipment. All those Audi''s and BMW''s have standard climate control aircon in every one of their cars. I had to get mine fitted optional. The ride is very firm but mine has sports suspension, another dealer option. The tires that came with the car weren''t exactly spectacular so i changed to 17inch mags and Falken FK-451 tires which work wonders and grips the road firmly.

Appearance

Rides very nicely and softly. It is very luxurious.Moreover it has great handling and fits everybody''s needs. It not only has a very nice and smooth ride but it is also very safe to be in. It has many safety features.Although it seems to be lout,after drivin'' you feel the power,the rocket power which is awesome.None of the rivals can defeat that car both in acceleration and comfortable riding.I highly recommend this car!

Weakness:

The WORST customer service.

A total lemon. I did like the car, but I had problem after problem. MB did not want to assume any responsibility. They just wanted to keep trying to fix it.
