The red one looks gorgeous... The poster in Motortalk said the pics are official and come from MB's website...

Here the rear:

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.

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

I don' think that these are official ones - there aren't any pics on the mercedes homepage…

…but I have to say - of what I can see, I'm not a great fan of it…

edit: Okay, they are official!! Just checked Mercedes hp:

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

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.
