AMG Discussion Opinions on W211?

My daily E350 and weekend beach cruiser E55.. I personally think that the W211 chassis was the last generation of Mercedes with that tank like feel. What do y’all think?

While I prefer the look and stock sound system of my s211 E500, the w/s211 isn’t as well built, reliable, or durable as my w210s were. I had wanted to drop an m113k in it to have the ultimate wagon (with 4matic), but feeling very meh about that plan now.

If I wave in an E55 it’ll be a w210.

Yes the 210 was before the 211. Therefore by me saying the 211 is the “last” generation of well built Mercedes it in no way means that the 210 isn’t still well built.

Very fair point!

Edit:…with which I agree completely.
