For all you Executives out there, or wannabe Execs, Mercedes is introducing the new E-Class Executive version with extras worth more than $5,156, but will cost less than the E220 CDI. It will be equipped with all kinds of extras, like integrated cellphone support through the steering wheel, six CD changer, two-zone climate control, driver lumbar support, adjustable front seats, 16″ alloy wheels, front side-bags and window-bags, and outer rear seat pre-tensioners and Neck-Pro. It will also have the new PRE-SAFE system from Mercedes, as well as adaptive Brakes.
Seems to be a nicely equipped car, with price tag of £28,515 in the UK, not sure how much it will be in the States, but more info should be coming out soon.
It is very nice i might sell my e and buy this one
I work for a Mercedes franchise in the UK and unfortunately the E-Class executive is only available when registered to business customers not private individuals, it is a limited run of 1,000 units available between June-October 2007 and based on the E220 CDI Classic model. Specification enhancement includes:
o Metallic paint (including exclusive colour – Palladium Silver)
o Exclusive 16″ alloy wheel design
o Exclusive chrome door sills with ‘Mercedes-Benz’ lettering
o Floor mats
o Telephone pre-wiring
o CD changer – 6 disc
o Black Artico upholstery
Pricing from £28,515 On-The-Road for the E220 CDI Executive (manual) and offers a customer value enhancement of approximately £3,220 (inc VAT) compared to the standard car. I’m fairly sure that this model will be UK market only
