Undressed! I really haven't had time to finish this but i figured I'd post it anyway, for the guys who requested it. It 'shines a light' on it at least.

Terrible chop. The lights won't look anywhere as bubblicious as that. Neither will the LED fog lights be wrapping around the inside of the air intakes.

Makes the BMW 5 series look good........................
I don`t think the new 5er can be made out at this point.. It`s still under very heavy camo to make a comparo.

just a random question, do those European rules on design only affect European makers? some of them are quite ridiculous.. like huge side mirrors is one of them right? I hope they won't force side indicator to be put on mirrors, it's good for pedestrian but it is bad on the highway..
Is it just me, but this car's shape is nice, but a bit old fashioned? the roof is nearly flat.. a classic theme to it?

Neo-retro is the name of the game at MB now.
Lots of Body mass, think C-Pillars and longer rear overhanges have long been a Mercedes-Benz trademark during the Sacco years. Looks like the designers arn`t changing that theme with the new E-Class.
I drive: Black ML 320 CDI Editio 10, Black rims... BLACK EVERYTHING!!!

What i cant stand is why MB is doing that completly UGLy interior desings. S Class and CL are realy luxury, and when you see the new C, this new E, and the next CLK, something has change for the worse.
