The Mercedes-Benz E-Class lineup sees several changes for 2010. The E-Class sedan has been redesigned — highlights include revised styling, a higher-quality interior and a lower base price. Also, a new coupe body style (it replaces the previous CLK-Class) joins the roster. Lastly, the previously available wagon body style and diesel-fueled V6 engine option have been discontinued, but they are expected to return to the lineup at a later date.

Edmunds says
Restyled, higher in quality and more enjoyable to drive, the redesigned 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is a luxury-car triumph. Shoppers in this segment will want to give it serious consideration.

The Toyota FJ Cruiser (FJC) is a retro-style compact SUV by Toyota introduced as a concept at the 2003 Chicago Auto Show and in production form at the following North American International Auto Show. On sale in early 2006 as a 2007 model, it features styling reminiscent of the original FJ-series Land Cruisers from the 1960s (particularly the front fascia and wrap around rear windows) , but is based on the Hi-Lux platform also used by the modern 4Runner and Land Cruiser Prado. The FJ Cruiser is only sold in North America. The FJ cruiser was not originally intended for production but due to enormous consumer response about the car following the North American International Auto Show, production evidently began.

The FJ Cruiser primarily competes with the Nissan Xterra, Jeep Wrangler and the Hummer H3. Base pricing is between US$21,000 and US$23,000. At 183.9 inches in length, the FJ Cruiser is the longest compact SUV [...]

The five series is BMW’s second best-selling model after the three series. The mid-level executive sedan takes a more luxury approach when compared to the sport sedan nature of the three series. The 1995-2004 E39 five series is no exception. The executive sedan is the fourth generation five series, and the 540i is one of the top trim levels, coming in only below the M5. Enhanced luxury features, traditional Bavarian engineering, and an engaging driving experience build on BMW’s “ultimate driving machine” moniker. Today, it is no surprise that interest in the E39 is even greater than at its introduction. With so few original and clean examples left, it is likely on its way to becoming a collectible.

The E39 BMW 540i strikes the perfect combination of both performance and luxury. A standard aluminum 4.4-liter V8 produces 282 horsepower and 325-pound feet of torque. In contrast, 2001 and newer U.S. market cars have 290 horsepower. [...]
