The alu trim makes perfect sense to me though... especially now that I've noticed there's alu around the center airvents.

Giannis could be right though, with the extended wood theory

I have to agree there. Looks terrible to me too. Ugly forms, lot's of buttons and plastic everywhere. This does not make me exited at all.

I think it is 16" it is standard on the W211 in Elegance und Classic Trim

Common logic would tell us to wait before making final judgements with all the camo covering it..

Give the new E-Class a chance to break cover first.

Re: New W212 E-Class Sedan & Estate Thread III (Spy pics & info)

Klier is like me, I think we prefer the more sporty interiors than this ones with shiny wood that Mercedes offers to some of its consumers.

BUT, the air controls is sorrounded by wood, so, if you pick the Avantgarde trim, with alu instead wood, you will have all the big frame of the dash with alu, and all the area from the air controls to the Command selector in alu, con this with a sporty steering wheel will be quite pretty, I dont have any doubts.

Re: New W212 E-Class Sedan & Estate Thread III (Spy pics & info)

So far, it looks pretty decent. It's pretty obvious that there are tremendous W204 C-Class design elements in the new E-Class. At the same time it looks like MB took the current W211 shape and "boxied" it up a bit.

Interior looks pretty decent. Those chrome touches do any interior well.

Looks like it. Very sport rims, a bit audi-ish. I've never seen them before, they're new right?
