Has anyone driven an E350 coupe?

Hi guys,

Tossing up between a E350 coupe and the 335i - has anyone tested both and how did you find the E350 coupe? I notice that insurance is pretty high on the 335i in comparison.

The e350 is a much bigger car, the 4 series would be more inline with the size of that car. If you want the potential to make more power and upgrade suspension and things like that go with the 335, if you want a bigger coupe go benz.

E class are 5 series sized aren't they? So would a 6 be the closest competitor size wise?

i got 350 4dr aswell, also drove around the coupe aswell for a week.
The power difference to me was massive.
335i would poop all over it in power wise.

the e350 coupe and the e350 4dr steering wheel is real light, but would be good for daily drives i guess? . and after driving the e350 coupe for a week, my 335i steering wheel felt real stiff lol (but i liked it )

E350 interior is awsome, love it. makes 335i interior dash look old as.
I also liked how the cluster was all color, compared to my orange 335i cluster lights.

1+2 series vs A class + CLA
3 series vs C class
4 series vs C coupe...or e coupe...
5 series vs E class
6 series vs CLS
7 series vs S class

I THINK

+1 everything he said
I drive my friends one while at uni for a year, interior is amazing , the power is shit, and I drive a 325 lol. If ur after power and style then 335 easy, if you drive a lot and going to be in traffic then I guess e350 as its a lot softer

E350 is boring as hell and makes you look 10+ years older than what you really are.
