Which cars use an electronic shift lever?

My buddy has a 7 series with an electronic shifter. Was having a debate with him and I couldn't think of other cars that have that. I'm guessing high-end Audi, Merc, etc. probably do.



What other cars do you know of that have that?

I can confirm the Merc. Well ours does anyway. 2010 E350...

Our A6 (2006) did not have it, but I believe the new one's do.

I think all of the BMWs 5 series and up use some form of an electronic shifter now, it's just not column-mounted:


I thought I read somewhere that even the Ford Super Duty's column shifter is nothing more than a large switch now, with only wires connecting it to the tranny? Can't find where i read that....I'm probably wrong though...


EDIT:
Forgot to mention, Buses/RVs/OTR Trucks have been using push-button electronic shifters for years...

Welcome to the future!!! Though I think many of those are really manual, I'm sure one of them is a mess of servos and actuators. Edsel is actually one of my favorites.
