1996 Mercedes Benz E-Class Test Drive

Selecting the Motor Trend Import Car of the Year is seldom easy, and this year’s competition proved to be a particularly spirited undertaking. When the debate finally ended, however, we agreed that the winner of our Golden Caliper award could be only one car: With its exceptional combination of contemporary styling, world-class engineering, first-rate handling, and above all, solid value, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class has moved decisively to the head of the class of ’96. source
