Yeah I was surprised they had coupes, they had two just sitting right out front.

I forgot that Mercedes hadn't yet split the coupe to its own model like BMW did. Looks like that split is happening as we speak with production on the CLE starting this month. Meanwhile it looks like BMW is fixing to kill the 4 series and either return the coupe to the 3 series or kill it off.

I think I’d have to refuse that as a loaner, I’m 6’5” and I don’t fit in these small luxury coupes with sunroofs.

I used to like the look but I think it is started to look old. I never liked the painted part on the roof, would have been better looking if it were all black. I think the E class is a very stylish looking coupe E class looks better as a coupe than it does a sedan IMO.

Well this generation has been in production since 2015, so yeah, it would look a little old! Lol
And yes, I agree it would look better if the whole roof was painted black.

E Class is also a good looking coupe, MB does coupes well.

That sucks... Let us know (like you won't lol). And that is disappointing about your dealer. My MB dealer is as good or better than Lexus, that sucks.
Ok how bad is the 2.0t?

The engine is very fascinating, low HP but insane torque. Over 700 off idle lol!

Butttt that legendary 6.75L V8 is gone for bad fuel economy, of course.
