Hi Guys,
I am thinking of Going for Merc after driving Honda for a few years.
I'm glad i found this informative site from a UK guy posting at channel4.com/cars. There is a USA site but not too relevant to me.
I'm willing to part with about 25-27K for a new Merc and was thinking of either the new E or the C class. I've driven accord for years and feel it about right size. How would E compare. I'd rather have new E but feel it may lack the sporter feel cf to C class which now may offer Sports package.
The merc dealer thinks C would be better and is eagier to offer me
discounts on used C and new C but NOT new E...I'll have to wait till May for new E.
How good is the NEW E or should I save my money and spend under 20K for used C or abit less for new C with new sports package.
What would you do buy new E or wait a few years and settle for used or new C now? until more used E are around and cheaper, presently used E are 1k cheaper than list price and sell same day.
I've never bought Merc and dont know what I'm buying.
Any help appreciated
