Well, i traded for a thing for a thing. My 2011 VW Tiguan for a 2010 Mercedes-Benz E550 4Matic.

Its got the P2 package and just about all of the optional extras.

That is a very nice looking thing.

Nice, I see Distronic, Parktronic, leather (which I think was standard on E550), pano, vented seats . I’ve had 3 W212s (no V8s), that one is indeed loaded.  I’ve always liked the hockey stick running lights on 2010-11 P2 cars.

Yeah hockey stick DRLs are good.

As far as I can tell, I dont have heated steering wheel, dynamic seats (might be AMG only?) and the night vision.

From what I recall, dynamic seats were available on non-AMG cars, and night vision is a real rarity.  Not sure if heated steering wheel was offered that year, don’t recall ever seeing one with it anyway.  Might not have been til the facelift.

Very nice!

I’m thinking a e-wagon will be in the running to replace the 3er soon.

Sweet! I’ve been trying to find more docs on it.

Fun fact: I worked at M ercedes when the 212 was introduced. Good times.

Nice . I remember the local intro, as the local dealer used it to kind of christen a new showroom . I ended up leasing 3 of them, one pre-facelift, 2 facelift.

I ended up driving one in Germany as a rental in the fall of 09, too - E200D with cloth seats.   Forbidden fruit.

I don't know about 2010, but my 2014 has the dynamic seats.

Definitely. I think it was available throughout the life of the W212.

It is surprisingly fast. I’m shocked.

It’s amazing how quick the E550 is. I love it.
