Just ordered my E Coupe ...



I know I mentioned last year that I had ordered a C63 AMG, well I changed my mind when the car arrived for 2 reasons which are related to the A-hole sales rep I was dealing with at Fletcher Jones Mercedes: He was trying to pressure me to agreeing to his ridiculous deal terms, and he kept mentioning that the car was going to be sold in the same day if I hadnt agreed to the deal he put on the table. And obviously since im not that crazy kid I used to be whom wouldnt care what the cost was as long as I ended up with the car I wanted in my driveway on the same day... Lets just say I was pissed, felt mistreated (SINCE I DID ORDER THE CAR THE WAY I EXACTLY WANTED IT AND LEFT A DEPOSIT JUST TO TAKE MY TIME AND GET THE GOOD DEAL I WAS LOOKING FOR)...

Anywho, bad things happen for good reasons, ive been super patient driving the X5 which I honestly hate to death, and well I have to admit ive been enjoying my brother's S5 since he's out of town , but the manual tranny does get annoying in L.A's daily traffic jam, I drive it pretty smoothly but its just not me ..

Im happy to announce that I just came from downtown L.A motors where I ordered the E550 coupe which will be at the dealership on August 7, fully loaded with sportline package, and Black on black ofcourse , unfortunately red interior is not available, but im happy. the sales rep I talked to is one who allways wanted to get his hands on me, and now that the guy I used to purchase my cars from does not work at MB, his patience has finally paid off i guess lol, he had to admit that he is looking to give me the best possible deal and do nothing to screw this up with me ...Im also getting some custom designed wheels done with my own clothing brand logo and name (RELOADED) exclusively for the E coupe, the wheel will be designed by me ofcourse, and as soon as the sample is done I will post up some pics for your feedback.

More over, I will be trading my girl's X5 for the W212 E350 sedan when my car arrives... FINALLY !!!! ugh!!!

So I just wanted to share this with all of you, your thoughts are most appreciated, looking forward to reading some posts.

Id also like to know what are your thoughts on the black(charcoal) interior, im having second thoughts because I really like the Almond Beige Premium I saw in person at the dealership.

Thanks,
Ali - Reloaded

What! Fletcher Jones screwed you over??? Hey welcome to the club I prefer "F***er Jones"

I would go for black over solid tan myself. If you can get two tone... Black and tan, that is what I would go for

Thats the problem, you cant get 2 tone in the coupe, only the sedan ... the coupe only gets the dash in black! The doors, seats, center console, etc are all tan, which is boring ...

Congrats man on the nice pair of E-class !

The US customers seems to have limited number of choices when it comes to specifying their cars, I thought things would have improved with the launch of the new generation of cars. Was the 2 tone option on the Designo list?

Thanks man,

Im sure the 2 tone is on the designo edition, but we all know designo is not black exterior ... and I would never buy a car thats not black..

Awesome choice Ali. The new E-Coupe is a very attractive car that shouldn't disappoint on the road either.

The E-class Coupe is working but I haven't fallen for E-class Sedan, it doesnt have the beauty like previous E-class. Wait another year and the next generation 5-series will be for sale, its going to be a stunner.

Many congrats!! Sounds stunning… E Coupé 550!!! Hope, that the 60 litre tank for petrol is enough for a 388 hp monster.
