Mb engineers had a chance to really propel the ML into a winner. Instead, it looks like a weak effort. The front bumper is uninspired, which is sad, since the plastic bumper covers are one of the easiest and cheapest things to change.

The side mirrors are a half-hearted effort. Why not give them the very distinctive mirrors of the C-class, or GLK??

Is a touch screen Nav really that hard to fathom for MB???? You can buy a Garmin for $500 which has touch screen and will run circles around what is in the ML now.

The grill still looks the same as it did 10 years ago. Why not incorporate the new stylings of the C, SL, and GLK?? and get rid of that electric razor look?

The power domes look good and should have been on the ML since day one.
