2011 Mercedes Benz E550 A Cabriolet
VIN: WDDKK7CF0BF090297
Palladium Silver with Almond/Mocha Interior

For 2011, Mercedes Benz offered the Cabriolet as a “new” version, which offered open-top driving in a sporty midsize luxury vehicle. The E550 has a 5.5 liter V8 engine with a 7-Speed automatic gearbox and direct injection, which produces 382 bhp, and a notable 0-60 time of 4.6 seconds.

The E550 features a soft top rather than a retractable hard top, yet it brings a wonderfully appointed cabin package to open-top cruising. The top is comparable to the thickness of a permanent roof, and lowers in 20 seconds (22 seconds to close), and a headliner inside the canvas top helps minimize exterior noise and keeps the cabin's look consistent. The interior is well appointed and features comfortable, 14-directional seats that provide 4 ways to manipulate the lumbar settings. A thoughtful addition to this model is a switch that raises all four windows at once, avoiding the chore of having to raise them individually. A wind deflector is integrated with the rear headrests, and an inventive creature comfort called the “air scarf” utilizes fans in the headrests to blow warm air on front-seated passengers' necks, making top-down driving in colder weather much more comfortable. An ingenious new feature which Mercedes calls an “aircap” pops up above the windscreen when the roof is trunked to keep airflow moving over the car. The Harman Kardon 12 speaker, 450 watt audio system provides high quality sound. There is also onboard 6GB of music storage, HD and satellite radio, and iPod integration.

The navigation system's maps appear in 2D and 3D, and use traffic information for driver alerts and to adjust the route. The adaptive cruise control system can bring the car to a complete stop, and is also fundamental to its impact avoidance system.

This particular example is up to date on service and has never had any paint work. It is a one-owner California car which has just 13,612 miles from new, and is finished in Palladium Silver with Almond/Mocha interior with a black soft top. The performance options include a 997 Distronic Plus Package (includes the overtaking sensor, parking assistance, guidance display for rear parking, adaptive cruise control, collision warning system, and brake assist). The car is well appointed and has chrome door handle inserts, rear deck spoiler, rear side airbags, wood trim package, and burl walnut trim. This car also features the P02 Premium Package Command System with high performance tires and blind spot assist, which were both special order items.
The execution of design in this car shows that Mercedes can be earnest about providing a solid, sporty driving performance.
