But in the one with the Mercedes eblem it somehow crossed my mind that it resembled somewhat to an old S-class.

I guess it's too far fetched to see for alot of people but perception could be different by person, I saw it somehow. And I post it whether I was the only one, it's not about nitpicking at all just perception.
What's about to nitpick? I really like the car and from the post of Ralfd, it can only be better!

What's the E37?

I can remember: E23, E32, E38 and E65?

In my opinion there will be no 745d - the engine was to heavy and with the turbo engines the 6-cylinder will produce much better perfomance with less fuel consumption. Maybe BMW will introduce a second diesel engine. But I have no idea.
