Not currently in the market either but if i was, i would drive from Detroit to Naples on vacation & demand to buy a car from Bill & nobody else. Im not an elbow rubber just like Bill isn't, but i would love to shake his hand, share a shot of corona virus whiskey & find out more about the guy. What a class act & talent. Instantly a likable fellow. On a crappy day, you can watch one of Bill's reviews & instantly be laughing. My favorite are the Lincoln reviews. Especially the Town Cars. I have a collection of 3 beautiful ones. Best Regards from the Motor City everyone!

I’ll vouch for that…my parents are German and were very strict with proper auto maintenance on their cars. If you drove it one mile over the 3,000 mile oil change interval, it was one week in the cooler. Incidentally, the “E” does stand for Einspritzung….fuel injection.

I got a 2014 E350 Sedan for my first car at 24, and it's honestly my favorite model. Its a good balance of modern without being over the top in computer features, and still kind of tradicional. I dont like all the bells and whistles and safety features newer cars have, and I like keeping up with car maintenance in general. Its a beauty and im definitely keeping it as long as possible

I had a 2012 or 13 E350 for a rental for 2 weeks when my car was being repaired. Really nice car to drive. The park button on the end of shifter lever is a stupid idea. I had the car about 15 minutes and pressed it by accident while in traffic. Lucky I was slowing down at light but transmission made that nasty grinding noise.

Wonderful review, Bill!! I do think this edition of the E-class coupe/cabriolet (with this swoopy facelift) is by far the best looking. Sexy and stunning live in the metal-that rear hip makes me weak in da knees. My cousin Claire has an E450 convertible of this vintage (white with a blue top and cream leather, gorgeous) and drove me back to NYC from our Uncle Donny's memorial in Manahawkin, NJ. Stunning and larger than life, really. I felt like a celebrity lol ;)! As Janice so gloriously sang "Lord won't You buy me a Mercedes Benz...." Amen. :)

Have studied this set of shots and understand the effects that come down the road. So at this point in my life I'm watching Bill talk about the baby going into the trunk net and thinking 'this is a normal way to spend my Friday night with a bit of gin and tonic' . We had this in a 350clk and it was a nice car but for the damned hydraulic top which I tried to fix myself and fucked it up and it cost thousands to fix.

By the time you get off the Interstate, the guy in that pickup is probably worried about you stalking him. He probably knows he can't escape in that truck. But then, he shouldn't be hogging the left lane while you're showing domination on land, sea and air. ...SUVs...What are you going to do? Buy beautiful coupes and convertibles like this, or the Rivieras, or Lincoln Mark V, VI, VII, VII, whatever, until either there are no more or I am no more.
