I really feel like people sleep on this model, it's so elegant and classy. I feel it is going to age really well. The e53 is on my short list after my 3 series. Also the width is really something I feel like it's way more noticeable in person, it's really striking. Great review Raiti, I hope your health stays well during these times.

[@yes8032]

Exactly

[@ejohnson3131]

I drive a coupe. People sleep on coupes because they’re not as practical if you have kids. For the driving enthusiast, they’re the way to go.

[@rigobertogarza7945]

I love this car I plan on saving up for the E53 coupe and trade in my lexus RC when I get out of college

[@ejohnson3131]

@@rigobertogarza7945 - I would much rather have a brand new RC than anything from Mercedes. If you have the money like that, lease one. Don’t ever buy anything from Mercedes/Audi/BMW, don’t throw your money away. They’re like expensive $lut$ you pay to have for a while and you pass on to the next dumba$$ so they can deal with the baggage.

[@Rickster1965]

I’ve had two other E class coupes. Great cars that are highly reliable, just love these things! I wait to buy them previously owned after three years under 40K miles. You can generally find them for about 50% of original MSRP, and still have another year of warranty. Rumor has it that MB is discontinuing all coupes after 2025 except the C class. Will look to buy the last year of this series.

[@p_enta5012]

I LOVE the pillarless design. having no B pillar makes it a much more beautiful car.

[@xxraverxxonxtacy]

Love the interior especially at night when it's lit up like Tron-like ambiant lighting around the dashboard and trim accents.

[@jgs1564]

I have a 2018 E400 Coupe in Iridium Silver with all option packages. This has been my daily driver for more than 3 years (I bought the car when the current generation came out in late 2017). I never get tired of driving this car.

I will try man. It's actually difficult to do because the camera is right in my face.

[@117ColeH]

As usual, another fantastic car review! Raiti (with Lori's expertise) creates the most informative car reviews on KZbin! Love the E450 Coupe, but I wish you had mentioned (and shown) its most distinctive feature--the true hardtop styling (no B-pillar when windows all down)--making it really cool. Kudos to M-B for building true hardtops (both E-Class and S-Class Coupes.) Also, this model is available in beautiful Designo packages (unique paint and interiors.) Viewers appreciate your fine efforts to help us experience the vehicles virtually!

hi could you tell me which would you buy, a 300c coupe or the 430i coupe?

[@pete6705]

To me the Mercedes connected driver display/ infotainment screen is the perfect design. I think it's the best dashboard design in the car industry. I know they've been doing it for a while now, and they feel like they need to update it, but I like it so much better than the Tesla-style giant screen they are moving towards now.

[@RaitisRides]

Thanks for sharing your input on this one Pete!

[@LS1007]

If they keep going, the entire length of the dash will be screen. Then the passenger will have something to play with. I quit hauling “schmucks” around a long time ago.LOL! Thanks for sharing this slick MB. Nice job Joe and Lori! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

[@uofan1]

I enjoyed this one because (you might remember what's coming) I'm still debating what I want for my retirement car. Now that you've reviewed an E450 (although we'd get a sedan), I'm still waiting for you to review a 2021 540i...then compare the two for me. I also like a M550i (haven't driven one yet) but that may be too much speed for when I'm old and decrepit! "Sorry officer, I thought I was allowed to drive as fast as my age!" 🤣😂 You know I also keep waiting for someone to review a 2021 Jaguar XF, love the new interior, but not the turbo 4 only option. I love Jaguar, so I ticked off that box by getting my wife the same XE that you previously reviewed. 😉 Sorry for the long message. Thanks! And as always...ON THROTTLE!!

Nice detailed review. However, has this guy ever driven the 2019 model? It has about 80 to 90% of everything he mentioned. Lol. The four-door facelift for 2021 is fairly obvious. However, the external refresh on the convertible and the coupe is not that noticeable in my opinion. Does anyone agree?

[@robloxiandino4454]

Is this worth it or is it better to get a used one

[@dannyvafa3639]

Probably better to get a used one at this point. Dealerships are charging 10k to 20k over the MSRP for a new one. That's ridiculous. It's even hard to find a used one. If you buy a used one, make sure you get a 2019 with at least the AMG package. The other packages are good but if you have an issue with price, I would get the minimum with the AMG package
