I doubt your car will be wired for the new sensors for speed / position / bearing etc. In fact, you WONT have those sensors... I dont think you can do this upgrade for under $15K with a new console.
Seriously, whilst I encourage all manner of tweakery and DIY, this is not a job you can do without shelling out an awful lot of cash. Sell the E-class, and buy a 2000 S Class, it'll probably be cheaper!
