apparently that's old news, there will be no e350, and the e300 will continue...

You mean V8? Bad enough they label the 3 cylinder as a E300 to make it seem like you have a 6 cylinder instead of a lame 4 cylinder.

wow, I did not hear about the E350 being dropped. I wonder why. This is a total surprise.

Maybe Mercedes is in "production hell" too

The odd thing is that preliminary ordering guides had the E350 and dealers were accepting orders for it. I would hate to be a potential owner who found out the orders were cancelled.
