1st look (virtually)uncovered - E-Class Cabrio
- Thread starter KillerHERTZ
- Start date
KillerHertz, Thanks for posting those pics.
I dont like it as much as I was hoping to. The front looks nice, as in the Coupe, but I was expecting more from the back end. Just like the W209 '03 - 08, the rear is too soft and rather feminine. I, myself, drive a w209, and am never happy with the look of the back end.
I wish it was more sharper and had more presence on the road. the front is mighty FINEEE, tho!

IMHO, it looks a bit too much like a bigger version of a BMW 1 series convertible, especially from the side...

A BOSS "SILLY THEAD" SPECIAL - 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Convertible Revealed
2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Convertible Revealed in Official Design Pictures
Tuesday, October 13, 2009 | 5 Comments »
Not that the styling of the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class Convertible hasn't been previewed in the virtually undisguised prototypes that have been caught by numerous spy photographers testing in and around the Nurburgring as well as other locations in Europe, but these grainy black and white pictures that were filed with the EU trademark office are the official deal.
Set to arrive in Mercedes-Benz showrooms sometime during the first half of 2010, the topless version of the new E-Class Coupe keeps the four-seat layout of its tintop twin and like the Audi A5 Cabrio, it doesn't use a retractable metal roof opting instead for a lighter and more compact-sized canvas top.
Don't expect to see any surprises under the hood as the 2010 E-Class Convertible will be offered with the same four-, six- and eight-cylinder engine options (depending on the market) as the latest coupe model including a 204HP 2.2-liter diesel and a 5.5-liter V8 petrol with 388HP.

Sorry, I'm just not buying into this angular aggressive look to the model range these days. Whatever happened to subtlety of line, or did someone lose their ships curves in the design office. (People who remember drawing boards and tracing paper will know what I mean here)

Sometimes.. however at such early hours of the day, re-searching for a thread post is not the top of my priority list of things to do.
Will keep tabs on threads in future.. over and out!
