Thanks for the review, Steve. One thing that really kills the MBZ lineup for
me is the reliability- their recent cars have terrible reliability ratings.

Also, the slushbox. I test drove an E500 4Matic with the sport package
last year and I was very impressed with the car. The black on black combo
that I tested was gorgeous- nice German interior, tons of power with the
5L V-8, smooth transmission, adjustable suspension, great brakes, etc.

What killed it is the lack of a manual- a good manual transmission would
seal the deal, I'd be looking for a clean preowned E500, IF they were
reliable.
