E-class sales appear to be strengthening once again, following the huge onslaught by competitors. This facelift, if its thorough enough, should solidify its position a bit until the new generation arrives.

Let's just hope they actually do something. I think it's about time now!

I guess that the tape covers enough areas for me to be hopeful that the facelift will freshen enough without being alienating. I agree that they need to do -something- though!

The grill looks more defined, it looks that from now on the grill will become an even more prominent feature on all new MB cars, the grill is a strong emphasis in the design, and now even more attention will be given to it, especially considering that Audi's new radiator grills are louder than all current MB's.

I second that the wheels look very sharp indeed.

We get the 5K AMG package which looks good, but does very little to actually make the E any sportier. They're going to have to do something to the suspension of the E500 going from 302hp to 382 hp. A car with that much power deserves a kick-ass sport package able to take it right to the 550i and Infiniti M45 Sport, for those who want a Benz capable of doing so.
