2016 E350 purchase I just purchased a 2016 MB E350 from MBLN, there were extremely accommodative in showing me the vehicle (and other vehicles that I wanted to see) and I just purchased a 2016 MB E350 from MBLN, there were extremely accommodative in showing me the vehicle (and other vehicles that I wanted to see) and in explaining to me the features and details of the vehicle as well as test driving the vehicle. We had to negotiate the price since the MBLN advertised pricing exceeded data points for similar vehicles at other dealerships. The history of the vehicle indicated that the vehicle had been a leased vehicle and was not maintained for the initial 44,000 miles by the original owner although the vehicle does look and drive like a brand new vehicle. The lack of maintenance issue could be problematic in the future, but being a Mercedes could mitigate that matter. The paperwork was extremely cumbersome and financing people demanding signatures on everything some of which was not requested at other dealers where I have purchased vehicles previously. They indicated a fetish over signing off on a paper that prohibited the use of tire chains even though it contradicted the owner's manual.. The OM does allow use of tire chains in snow for certain tire and wheel sizes. Also they did not provide an alternate arrangement for driving in snow. The dealership was not comfortable with a cash purchase, finance people wanted to see a lease or financing contract. Also, the finance dept contacted Expedian for my credit rating and also for my wife's credit rating score, and did so without our specific knowledge or approval. The finance dept demanded signatures on the report of credit rating scores, which I declined to provide. With the finance dept issues were complete we are satisfied with the vehicle, it has some (preferred) design features that are not found on the newer 2019 or 2020 E300 models, it has a spare tire which the 2019 does not have, it has numerous upgrades, the engine is a V6 as compared to the turbocharged I4 in the 2019 & 2020 models, the folding mirrors feature, and it has a CD player which I do not see on the newer models. Overall a turbocharger is a nice feature but problematic it spins at approx. 225,000 rpm and is tempermental to maintain. Overall very satisfied with the 2016 E350. More
