10 questions for the E-Class family's newest two-door
What other vehicles might be on my shopping list?
If a coupe is your desire, the Audi A5 offers an easier price point entry at $40,700, which means you can load it up with features before you start getting to the base price of the V6 E-Class Coupe. Dimensionally they are roughly the same, though the A5 is a somewhat heavier vehicle. The A5 also comes standard with Audi's all-wheel drive Quattro system, something not available on the Mercedes Coupe, so if you live in a winter weather state, that might be a consideration for you. The S5 is the V-8 version of the A5, and would be a fair comparison for the V-8 E-Class Coupe, though it is slightly faster and much sportier. One thing of note is that the A5/S5 fuel economy is disappointing, and worse than the E-Class Coupe models. At $78,200, the BMW 6-Series might be on your radar if you were looking at the V-8 E-Class Coupe, and in our opinion the E gives you a better looking coupe for way less.Photo courtesy of: Audi
