    Those blue lights in the interior look incredible. I would cruise around with the top down all night being warmed by the heated seat and air scarf just to see them lit up.

    I raised a question about the purpose of the so-called ‘visor test’ in the last video comments, and you guys responded! Holy-s**t. Actually I figured that out by watching another 20 videos in your channel, and I have to say you guys are one of the most entertaining channels on TH-cam! Such amazing chemistry. Awesome!

    • @CheukNamSiu
      @CheukNamSiu 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      generationfourth Coz they did the ‘test’ super quickly in the first video that I watched, so I’m really unsure. I live in Hong Kong and we seldom need to block the sun from the sides as the buildings are too tall and the sky is seldom truly clear. Cheers!

    @gkstanfield 6 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    Love your channel guys, for so many reasons...
    Rex-test; visor-test; the basic ‘two-friends-in-one-cabin’ review...and the obvious: that head-bang outro!
    Also- much great information on new models.
    Love this channel...keep on keepin’ on!! 👍

      doug is great, but he's easily second. yuri and jakub are incredibly entertaining and have amazing synergy as a duo. hands down my favorite car review channel on youtube.

    • @SomeLazyDr
      @SomeLazyDr 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Both! I watched Doug's and Mark (Savagegeese) yesterday, Yuri and Jacob today, probably Brian (RCR) tomorrow.

    @dylanw890 6 ปีที่แล้ว +23

    I prefer the coupe to be honest. I never really liked the way that Mercedes does its convertibles unless its the S-class cabriolet. I also feel that after a couple years of owning the convertible in a wintery climate, it will look awful after like 2 years, so I would much rather go with the coupe. The only convertible that I would get is the BMW 6 Series Convertible. That thing is sexy.

    I test drove a 2018 and part of my test was putting the top up and down with the key fob as illustrated at 8:57. It couldn't have been easier. My only thought is that they had a defective key fob, or maybe it just needed new batteries. It truly could not have been easier and was very responsive to a light touch

    That was a cool-assed intro. You guys switched it up nicely. I'm on the Coupe Team because @ nearly $100,000 price tag, that's pretty pricey. Great job on this video as always.

    One day Jakub... One day a car manufacturer will be watching your vids and know much you hate piano black interiors and make the entire steering wheel... Piano gloss black. Safety hazard? Maybe but to see how youd react to it?... Priceless lol

Seats, visors, stick shift, steering wheel, knobs, switches, door handles, rear view mirror, seat belts, cup holders, key fob, motor oil, oil pan, and last but not least... Yuri dipped in piano gloss black... I dont know where im going with that one so I'll stop there... Yeah...

      When they do that can they also switch touch screens from reflective gloss to nonreflective matte, and remove all chrom trim pieces that could reflect light into the drivers face?

    I have a 2018 Iridium Silver E400 Coupe. I live in Southern California, where the weather is sunny and beautiful the majority of the year. I love to drive with all windows down and the pano sunroof open. It almost feels like driving in a convertible.

    The very day that I first saw this video, I saw an elderly couple driving their Merc Cabriolet with the crazy windshield wind screen deployed. I was in the know because I was subscribed and caught this video. Just saw them again, today, with top down and front wind screen deployed!

    When this generation e class first came out, I thought the ambient lighting was kinda ostentatious, but it grew so much on me that it’s the sole reason I want to buy an e class. Btw, the night driving scenes are spectacular. Keep up the good work!

  • @SDav21
    @SDav21 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Remember though that the A Class tech is software related. On their larger cars like this, the tech is more hardware related. You won't get a 6 cylinder, massage seats, air suspension, night vision etc in an A Class. You are also not getting the same level of ride quality or refinement. The tech here is still amazing by the way. I just think it showd the target audience to an extent. Alot of people these days a taken by easily done software wizardry over amazing hardware engineering.

  • @edgarsonromeus3333
    @edgarsonromeus3333 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    For this car, the soft top will appear if the rain come out of nowhere. I don't like the soft top design with the rest of the car. So top down all the way. The summer is coming and during the fall you have airscrarf. So, I choose cabriolet.
    Did you talk to Merc about the top down with the keyfob issue for when you take back the car ?

  • @heinkmeister8415
    @heinkmeister8415 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Fun fact about the key fob feature: that feature is present on ALL Mercedes-Benz cars, not just cabriolets (even my old 2002 Mercedes CLK430 coupe has it). On the non-cabriolets, it just rolls down all the windows and opens the moonroof. If you have ventillated seats, it'll also turn on the driver's seat cooler.
    On cars with keyless access (where you leave the key in your pocket, put your hand in the door handle and it unlocks, etc), you can put the top back up by putting your finger over the lock sensor and keeping it there.

  • @clairekennedy8767
    @clairekennedy8767 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Convertible down over coupé! Something about topless cars just makes the driving experience so pleasurable especially Mercedes because it’s so relaxing yet can still tackle the corners.

  • @eliotsalandybrown

    I think the key fob thing isn’t horrible, that hard press prevents it from activating in your pocket during a rainstorm.

  • @Steven-jn9py
    @Steven-jn9py 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Really good review. Most of the car reviewers only show the car and it's features. Coming from a UX design student, I like the fact you mention the interaction between the car. The key fob function is defiantly a fail! Hah.

  • @Lightspeed-eo6nw
    @Lightspeed-eo6nw 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I never liked convertibles, but got a chance to drive a Boxster for a week, and the first time I did a shoulder check I understood the draw. This car was really sweet looking in real life, I’d be happy if this was my cruising car.

    I don't know if I've ever ROTFL at a car review video prior to today. Piano black buttons. :D Shout out to MB for their use of matte finish wood trim!
    I'd take the coupe with windows rolled down for overall looks, but the cabriolet for open air runs for at least three seasons of the year. A good friend's mom had a late '80s 300 CE and let me have a go in it just as I was learning to drive. Windows down with no B pillar and 0 - 80mph in such a linear rate of acceleration that you barely felt the speed w/o minding the speedometer.... gateway drug, that was.

    About the key fob buttons, there’s is a reason why they are hard to push, reason is if buttons are easily pushed and keys are in a tight pocket or a purse they can be pressed unintentionally and opens up all windows and roof, in a rainy day car will be ruined.

    Great observations and review guys. I gotta say, I don't like the way this car looks. It looks cheap, kind of like an Accord convertible or a bathtub. It really makes the E Class blunt face obvious, for some reason the coupe doesn't make it as obvious.

    Loving your videos guys. Not many good TH-camrs for cars in Canada. Thought I would add to the shopping cart discussion you guys started. Have you guys considered the old and new Porsche Targa.
    In fact the classic one the back window for the hatch was plastic and could be folded away for a “shopping cart” style driving. The new one does have glass window over the hatch but can see the handle while he mechanism is working while roof operations. Just a thought lol

    AIR CAP is the primary reason for choosing this car over any other in the (rather small) class. After you needed to live with typical wind deflector (windschott) of a regular convertible - you want it badly.

  • @eduardopadilla1307
    @eduardopadilla1307 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    they should do two knobs with screen that's default one in volume and the other in tuning, i guess, and when you press the closest one to the driver and they turn to ac controls; that way, you only have two knobs, but everything that needs knobs is covered

    The coupe for me, especially with the panoramic sunroof on the coupe. By the way, I prefer the monochromatic black interior. It has great contrast against the interior aluminum trim.

    The chemistry between these two is better than the chemistry between speed and luxury in a Bentley Continental... that was nerdy as hell

    e-400 cabriolet: feels the same as any other convertible with the top down.
    e-400 coupe: feels like no other coupe when the windows are down.
    Therefore, by uniqueness and engineering, I pick the coupe during any season for the fact that it feels more open than any other coupe ever produced. especially with that sunroof too.

    Picking one up at the factory in July.
    Can't wait to drive it on the Autobahn for 1 month before shipping it back to California...

    E400 Coupe with windows down for sure. Another great Mercedes review.
    You should add speed bump or potholes test to your video. :)

    Porsche Panamera has that shiny black plastic surface with capacitive touch icons instead of buttons on the center stack area.....

    I love the reviews and the raw energy you guys bring when talking about cars. I feel like you are trolling the viewers regarding your obsession regarding satellite radio though. You spent hours speaking with various manufacturers to get rewinding stations? Is this real life? Can you also ask them to bring back tape decks?

    Best looking convertible - 1996-1998 ruby red Mustang GT with TAN top!!!

    I agree almost on every car-related topic with Jakub, but Yuri has it with the E400 Coupe with the windows down. That is way sexier than the Cabriolet!!

  • @ikghazali

    Coupe all the way
    BTW, Just because you are in an expensive convertable, doesnt mean you can not wear the yelloe wrinkled straight pipes t-shirt, at least wear a straigh pipes hoodie if your cold.

    Airscarf.. Not neck scarf

      reminds me of "neck beard"

    • @shahulhusman
      @shahulhusman 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      YasumotoUS... also useful in the cold weather... I used neckscarf (lol) on the autobahn in the rain..in an sl63 amg With heated seats and blasting heat.. Was like 40 degrees and raining.. Hit 230 kmph

    • @YasumotoUS
      @YasumotoUS 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      That sounds like an amazing experience; I do not doubt the effectiveness of MB's features considering that they _have_ to work well and safely on the autobahn. I'd love to take a trip to Germany and experience the autobahn in a proper vehicle. Cheers!

      Actually, AIRSCARF, if we're being exact.

    Sick Photoshop skills on that neck scarf , they should call it the "fire strangler" after seeing your video.

    I drive the 2018 Cabriolet and picked it up off a one owner lease.
    Summertime only? Why do you think they have the neck warmers, normal blowers in front, crazy hot heated seats and the button to raise the front and back windbreaker I drive mine any time the sun is out down to 38 degrees in Georgia and it is NOT cold. Also key fob is not that hard to hold down to lower or raise top.
    Agree it is mainly a 2 or 3 seater with no backseat leg room unless for a smaller person.
    Very fun to drive.
    Be careful w head-in parking it is VERY low and you will smash and knock off the front bumper for sure $$
