^ sure, it is not going to set the world alight with its looks but that is not really the point of the E class. I think its proportions are very good. I like it.

Good point, I agree!

I think we tell now where the "arching" profile comes from. All the way down to the drooping deck-lid. It all started with the Maybach, that shape trickled to the S-Class and now has found it`s way to the E-Class in a progressive state.

The biggest problem I see so far are the enormous taillights!
Like the W211 model the designers should have left them off the decklid.

The red one is off the hook! I`m loving it!
The wheels really do it justice!, thats hot!

I have been looking at the two new uncamoed pictures of the new E Class for a few minutes now.

I can't work out whether Im just indifferent to it or just hate it......................

I find the exaggerated squat stance of the profile and the strong angular straight roof-lines bothering.
 
Re: Official: W212 Mercedes-Benz E-Class

mmh, not liking it so far, incoherent design, rear looks very asian, front messy, maybe better pic's will change my mind
 
Re: Official: W212 Mercedes-Benz E-Class

Love the front and the rear thank goodness looks better than i thought:D
 
Re: Official: W212 Mercedes-Benz E-Class

The red one looks great, though I do agree that the taillights look to Asian, more specifically Korean, they look very much like a Hyundai... Maybe no it's no coincidence that a former MB designer is with Hyundai now?
 
Re: Official: W212 Mercedes-Benz E-Class

pretty much what I expected with all what we saw from the FEPs and PS pictures.
As I thought, the front looks very good - however the rest of e car is a bit boxy, and I don't like the rear lights.
It will be a very good car, however it's a bit too conservative (what's expected from mercedes vs other carmakers), but even too conservative to the current E class.
