S-Class (W223) Mercedes-Benz S-Class (W223) Facelift

To be or not to be

There's 10 light arches, there's 10 in the window reflections, and there's 10 in one set of door reflections, this is the kind of stuff that AI is terrible at, but a photoshop of a car in the manufacktur studio might easily get right. Same with the wheels... they're not AI, they get the spoke pattern right.. easy to do if you're photoshoping.

10 hours to see.

Pre-FL vs FL

Methinks if it does get the black frame around the grille, I think black will definitely reign supreme as the color of choice for an S-class.


Or maybe that was M-B's plan all along. Hmmmm.....

Damn nano banana is really quite frighteningly good.

On the actual thing. It's probably pretty close to final. I think it looks quite good, but I'd have the grille on chrome, rather than black. Reckon with a chrome grille it would look really quite good.

This part leak does look like it

Even the bumper has that same different upper part ( different color from the actual grill )

Yep, Nano Banana is truly insane. Makes everything so realistic that it’s actually a bit scary ngl. Still makes subtle mistakes though, that’s why I said this leak wasn’t AI.

I prefer the pre Mopf.

Fake or not I like these headlights. The lighting inside headlights on various models in recent years has been a f#cking geometric hell and a torture for a perfectionist. With lighting set at such angles, as if they were designed by some moron who thinks chaos is beauty. Finally, order and harmony are happening inside the headlights.

wtf is this.

 

[Ghost1]

If it’s real I love it

 

[Uygar]

I prefer the pre Mopf.

Looks much more elegant and not as forced.

 

[fortuner]

I think it’s close to real has much more presence then pre facelift

Pre facelift was more subtle and elegant this is more in your face

I need to see the chrome grille. It looks terrible like this.

Too similar to the 214.

214 is better integrated and doesn't look like an afterthought. Instead of making the S look different than rest of the lineup they just turned it into a 214 with bigger grille and black details, with stars slapped everywhere. I hope the official pictures prove us wrong, sigh.

I agree, the grille is too high on the S.

This picture is a leak of the actual car, It was confirmed on the mbpassion blog.

Yep, it was obvious. Some people didn't want to believe it I guess, lol.
Curious to see how it looks without AMG-Pack and chrome details.

If the leak is true, it could very well be one of the worst FLs in MB’s recent history. On par with the W213 FL and the R230 FL.

My friend at MB in SA also says it’s real ..

 

[klier]
