What do you think guys?

I personally prefer quintessential E-Class. Quintessential M-B sedan.:

Standard looks alot better, but these add on skirts probably are less overbearing as the Brabus bumper treatment.

The E53 looks fantastic in black with matching black wheels. This car is my favorite new E-class model, the outside design is awesome like the W213 E63S with its flared front wheel arches and wheels filling the wheel arches perfectly.

I like the interior but it is disappointing in so many ways, the cost-cutting in this car is so obvious and really annoys me. In a top-of-the-range model, why don't they have Alcantara headlining and cover those F-ken ugly thin plastic hard sun visors in Alcantara or MB-Tex?? The steering wheel boss also can be covered in leather and have stitching. The door card leather trim could have some patterns, it really looks so boring and cheap in plain material. The shiny black plastic trim surrounding the door handle and electric seat switch could be also carbon fiber.

The interior doesn't look special enough compared to a standard E200 AMG interior. The only difference I can see is the carbon fibre trim, the carbon fiber and alcantara on the steering wheel and the sports front seats. The rear seats look the same, door trim has no difference.

Ok enough of my bitching about the interior, this has to be the party pic for this car with its beautiful profile and short overhangs with flared front arches.

Quite a good comparison, its a pity he didn;t have a 540 to compare to the E450.

God the side profile of this car is perfect.

I wonder how the heck the engineers pulled off that passive V8 like rumble (at 10:11) from an I6 with the exhaust turbo arrangement. The M256m in the CLE53 doesn't sound like this at all.

Lots of butthurt Lexus fans in the comment section.

The ES has no business there. Not sure why some think it is a competitor to mid tier German cars.

The E450 is fast, damn.

 

[GTA45E]

^Yes, it is.. it's relentless!
The testers should have done all they could to bring the I6 540i xDrive to the test.
The 540i is just as fast as the E450.

And the praise keeps coming for the new E:

And the praise keeps coming for the new E:

The US journalists from different publications have praised the new E and given it class leading status, such as Car and Driver, Motortrend and Road and Track and some online US and Canadian YouTubers.

Its a terrific all-rounder and I can't wait to take one for a drive when I get back home.

If I am not mistaken, there was a possibility to order an E-class with separate interior/exterior style with W213. For example AMG exterior with exclusive interior. That option is missing for this generation, right? Would love to see the machiato beige with all black amg styling

Mercedes-Benz could not have nailed a 4 door sedans exterior design more proficiently:

In my eyes, an embodiment of automotive design perfection. Hopefully, what is witnessed here will find its way into future M-B sedans. Regardless of whether they be ICE/Hybrids or BEVs.

 

[Merc1]

I’m starting to see them everyday now. It’s such a handsome car.

I think the W223 and W206 already embody the same principles.

This is the closest the E has gotten to the S classes elegance and presence in a long long time.

We've had two generations of outstanding Mercedes ICE saloons in terms of design. The EQs however have thrown things completely off. I suspect the CLA and AMG Coupe will be the first indicators if leasons have been learnt. As I hope the E interior marks a quality and finish turning point.
