Awesome thread!!!!

I vividly remember these 2002 S-class pictures on Autospies! While it looks like the headlights are slightly different,
around 98% is the same as the 2008 model, 6 years later.

That proves to the non believers that the new A8 is a real leak much like this one.....and that the new E-class was as well.
Sh!t happens sometimes for car makers

Ace! Always wanted to see old spy pics

Wow thnx for posting these..
Brings back some nice memorys

Great post!! Love to see all these "spyshots"!!

Classic! MBspy was my stepping stone in to the world of automotive news on the web.

Mbspy was great, too bad it is gone.

Yeah it sure was.

Why do some still think the current E picture is a "leak"? It clearly isn't an official picture, its a guess just like the pics in this thread. The Autospies picture is a leak, an actual car photograph of a real car. Not some made up nonsense.

LOL...you must've forgot the white E-class already??? The front, side and back are perfectly taken on picture close by in a studio without any camo.
Or you must still think that that car isn't real either.

Both the red and the white one are just good guesses, not the actual car IMO. Especially the red one, it isn't even proportioned right. The white one is much closer, but still a guess IMO.
