Hot! Mercedes-Benz, What's Next?

[Merc1]

Exactly

These split headlights looks really ugly on every car.

It works on the X7 to me.

Single pair of window switches

Introduced by the CLA?

Looks like Nissan launched a solid trend.

Saving 1-button per car.. beautiful.

Read it again. Nope, I said in the this, the Mercedes thread. Go back and read it. We know you don’t think any BMW is ugly. Your rant didn’t land because you didn’t read. Try again.

Please, who is “we”?
I try my best not to look biased even though it’s one of the brands that I favor the most. You can always dig through my past interactions and see how much I liked a certain BMW product and how much I didn’t. There are also tons of 7er renders and sketches that I posted here, which would further prove my excitement and love for the model. These contributions of mine are not exclusive to BMW either, made tons of them for Mercedes as well. You just don’t want to admit that someone can like the damn 7er I guess, that’s the whole issue.
I won’t further discuss about this nonsense as we don’t seem to understand each other’s perspective. Have a nice day.

I honestly have no idea why you’re even telling me this at this point. It’s like you didn’t even read what I just said. You’ve lost the plot. No I can accept that someone likes the 7_Series, but saying it has presence like it’s a good thing is nonsense. I couldn’t have been any more clear about it.

Well I’m either delusional or the language barrier really kicks in. Either way, no need for further discussion, at least on my part. Keep finding it nonsense my friend. Gute Nacht!

I would say a little of both.

In defense of the new 7er, it's targeted towards the "new money" class that wants to make a statement and are more materialistic and like to post their ambient lighting on Instagram and whatnot.

Presence is not a good thing for you and I because we prefer the more conservative, sporty looking 7ers. But presence has been successful for the 7er, on top of having an actually nice interior (love the wool-based seats) and decent driving dynamics.

The D5 Audi A8 for example has zero presence.. it's got a really low and wide body, yet the design doesn't stand out. It's dull and ugly. In the A8's case for example, that car needs road presence which it has zero of.

Presence to me is not a good thing when something is as unnattractive as a 7-Series. To me there is no way around that. Presence isn’t the problem, it’s styling is. You’re describing presence as if it’s a new thing for the 7-series.

I think it is though.

I thought the F01 and pLCI G11 had zero road presence, I say this as someone who loves the F01's design. They wouldn't turn heads like an S Class, they almost looked like just bigger/longer 5ers that also looked kinda boring. The G11 LCI's front fascia, although 50/50 on it's design, definitely made the car look more imposing thus giving it more presence on the road.
