People often think the stereotype "it's a Mercedes, so it's a money pit" but the E350, and I agree with you, the C350, don't fit within that observation.

I had two W211 Mercedes e class cars (a 2008 E350 and a 2008 E320 Bluetec) they were two of the worst cars I ever owned! The Bluetec in particular was horrendous. They were so bad I almost bought a Lexus. I stayed with Mercedes though because the W212 was so beautiful and most car magazines called it “Mercedes Benz’s return to respectability”. I had a 2012 that I put 125,000 miles on and other than tires, brakes and other maintenance items cost me nothing. I now have a 2016 E350 4matic with 84,000 miles on it and other than a pothole that destroyed the front differential it’s been perfect. I’m not sure why KZitemrs don’t like the W212 but it is heads and shoulders above the W211
