Actually out of the entire line, I think I like the E Class the most. That would definitely be the only car that I would consider to buy over a E60 5 Series. I think it has a classic shape and very executive looking.

(Well, I like the SL and CLS as well. )

Okay, then I will revise and say: I Think the last E Class was one of the better looking cars in the line.

/\/\ No there was nothing wrong with your words lol I was just expressing my thoughts

I mean I love the CLS, so if that car would have been the e-class line it would have showed up everywhere and Im not complaining then

^ Yeah, originally I didn't understand why MB would want another 4 door sedan in that class, but after seeing the sales numbers, I could understand now :shock: .

Haha.

I'm sure that the final E-class will look much better than this, but the body of this is not that bad. The only thing I don't care for are the Lexus GS headlights and the Lincoln taillights.

Doesn't look like anything special. Still too much camo right now to really tell.

I dont really believe that engine lineup. Not saying that AMG couldnt, but they arent known for developing 100hp/liter engines. They focus more on the torque department. I doubt they want to shift over with something that powerful.
