Pros
  • Undeniably great performance figures

  • Great E63 AMG with either M156 or M157
  • Good 0.25 drag coefficient
  • Good towing capacity
  • Better reputation for quality
  • Rather good looking
  • Good safety ratings
Cons
  • AWD (4MATIC) is forced on consumers
  • Somewhat genertic styling
  • Downsized engined with lots of electronics
  • Too many displays (and distractions) inside
  • Arguably less elegant than W211
  • MacPherson strut front suspension
  • Basic suspension setup
  • Not the best build quality
  • The wagon version looked better
