indiasfinest Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 very similar to the 7 series interior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted August 9, 2005 Author Share Posted August 9, 2005 Very much so and I'm wondering if Benz is betting thats going to be the interior layout of the future. I personally can't get used to it and I think BMW executes it better than Benz here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indiasfinest Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 looks ugly...especially those ugly million spoke rims lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexKid630 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I don't like it at all. I don't know where car makers are going with the future of cars.... They're making them look too weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcfish Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 yes ← I think the exterior is all over the board, Sharp lines , Bulging, Curves, etc... I do like the pic with the garnet color auto. And the tail looks like it is too far up in the air. I don't care for it at all. The interior is just ok by the looks only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990LS400 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 One has to give Mercedes credit for creating such a different looking car. Very daring and definitely not playing it safe. For a company historically known for selling mostly boring underpowerd gas and diesel cars, I have to admire this effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sha4000 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 your right sw it has nothing on the 7 mb is so busy trying to br exclusive the cars are looking ugly the only reason to bu would be to say i have a mb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted August 10, 2005 Author Share Posted August 10, 2005 I don't agree that all MBs are ugly, I think the current S Class is timeless and the new CLS is both different and still attractive. The E class is elegant looking as are the coupes. The new ML SUV also is attractive. This though...yikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blake918 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I don't like it either. Every angle you look at is just awkward and unappealing. The current S class is up there with the 98-00 LS400 though...they are both some of the most beautiful cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denslexusgx470 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 yeah, i have to admit that some of the MBs look great. current E Class is good, S Class, SLK 500, and the SLR. Others, well so so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW03ES Posted August 11, 2005 Author Share Posted August 11, 2005 Infiniti was the first to use the clock. Its played to death and I'm surprised Benz sunk to that. The plagarism on this car is sad. Oh well, Benz guys can never make fun of Lexus for copying their designs now lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, Benz guys can never make fun of Lexus for copying their designs now lol ← You're not kidding! The bulging fenders look like the new RX8 (which I think is ugly as well). Maybe they're going ugly to compete with the new 7 series. Personally I think that the current S-Class is sweet, but the new A8 is the best looking german flagship on the road right now. With Mercedes these days it doesn't matter what the interior of the car looks like - it matters what the interior of the service department lounge looks like since you'll be spending more time there than inside the car.
