a 140k car shouldnt look just “okay” let alone a S Class, how the mighty have fallen

The form of the front headlights looks rather generic, compared to the pre-facelift.

The S-Class was dead to me until I saw the W224.

Nah, this is what we get without auto translate.

To be fair, apparently they have had a customer screening for it...

Which Leylandi is not. You need a drivers license to be a customer

No you don't.... Well... If you intend on being driven by a chauffeur.

First S class that gives me a “meh” impression. Quite a let down, lost its grace fr.

The basic body-in-white and the proportions of the architecture are just fine IMHO. The visual appeal of more recent M-B's always seems to suffer significantly when poorly integrated elements are bolted,screwed or clipped on.

C'mon now...who on these forum boards have actually seen the W224 ? In a clinic, for example. And should a forum member feel addressed and be compelled to share only the most basic of info: Is the W224 "Smoother" ? "Taller" ? "Lower" ? "Wider" ? "Less applied ornamentation and more minimalistic" ? "More 2 1/2 Box rather than 3 Box silhouette" ? "MUCH larger in exterior dimensions" ?

Co-ask let’s not gatekeep please, it’s not like you guys are using real names or anything.

Is the W224 ‘better’ inside-out?

 

[MichiB]

I can't help it, but those silly black trim pieces around the grille bother me considerably less on the facelifted W223 than they did on the E-Class.




Has the design of the 20-inch forged wheels changed slightly? I like them better than on the pre-facelift model.

Shakti has, but is bound by an NDA. So you're not getting much unless someone is willing to take the lawsuit.
