Relax. It's an opinion. Didn't the Audi A4 win the same award when it came out? This stuff happens all the time and really doesn't mean anything. It's a subjective opinion from these readers.

Not a worthy winner IMO. It's a pretty car but I would never award it such a big price. The facelifted S-Class has a more simple and relaxed design and I think it should have won instead of the E-Class.

The E is newer than the S-Class and therefore it`s going to have more appeal. This award isn`t so big.. it`s just a matter of personal opinions as wimmer430 pointed out. (I like the W212 a lot btw..)

As long as its "readers award" and when the top 5 list is only german cars, then it doesnt matter if its BMW/Audi/MB getting the awards, its still unintresting. Sorry Artist.

Lexus LS winner of "best" ripoff of a 15 year old MB design, that would be about it.
