Thank you!
 
I'm happy for the departure from "2-door sedan" look. While the visual mass always impressed me, it doesn't translate well into sales nowadays. Times change, and to a certain degree so most the biggest coupe Mercedes offers. :)
 
I'm seeing a lot of homage being paid to the W126 coupe in this design. And that is never a bad thing.

The back looks absolutely horrible.

The front is weird (maybe a bit too much SL ugliness thrown into it)

The side profile is gorgeous.

Overall: I don't like it!!!!


I don't want to admit it,but the nose is horrible.


Hmmm...not as bad as the wannabe 6er rear. The licence plate is in the wrong position, the whole back looks ugly imo.
Maybe it will need some getting used to. I'm not that fond of the i8 either, and all Audi concepts from IAA look downright pathetic.

WTF is happening.


You like the nose out that far?


It's an MB, so he'll like it per default.
 
I am actually warming up to the dolphin nose. I have unresolved feelings about the lines in the sides and the greenhouse shape. The rear valance looks wrongly kinked out from the outside V-like rather than an A.
 
The only thing I don't like is the overbite grille, hopefully it will be toned down for production. Looks too much like a shark nose, very un-Mercedes like.

Hopefully the roof will be taller (for headroom, not design) and the shark grille will be toned down. If they do that grille right it will be perfect.

What a gorgeous looking machine. For the first time in this forum non MB/neutral enthusiasts like this car so much and die hard fans are all against it. C'mon people this is concept, We have seen this with the GLA and it turned out to be a beautiful looking machine. Relax
 
Some S Coupes to compare to. The latest nose profile seems fine with me. :)

Yeah if they tone it down and make it flat. It doesn't need to actually lean forward, none of these do. They either lean back or are upright.

Well, I was going to say that it looks gorgeous, but I'm afraid Levi might stalk me one year later if the production version turn out to be disappointing.
