It has a lot of Japanese styling elements...
the saloon is defo hyundai all the way, the coupe is very elegant...sharp styling, but it also is very much not merc styled, thus its charm is limited..
its a very radically styled car for the style concious and they will be pleased with it, but the interior is just very nasty...IMHO..
its not a bread and butter benz for what i see a Benz for...
class and passion lacks in the car..
its got the badge, its got the safety, and some style to say the least, but Im daunted on the thought it will be a fast depreciater simply cause it is too radical...
lets see what time will tell...
nice car, nice style, maybe just the wrong badge..
Ah its so clear now!!!!
Is this not defined as.. um plagarism? lol
bad merc.. bad bad. lol...
even the front is borrowed from the gs..
whats next? lol

But then the front of the first Lexus GS was copied from the 210. It's gone ful circle in just 2 model lifes!

The rear arches look like the bentley to me so look like they took bits from a few cars

I had a good look around this exact car in Canary Wharf this morning and it does look nice. Let me know if anyone wants me to take close-ups of any particular parts and I'll swing by on my break.
Cheers,
Matt
defo, but the Bentley arches look a whole lot better.. it has quite an athletic profile.... like a sprintr about to run the 100 metres..
but the e coupe looks like a crouching Japanese Siamese kitten!
Please do.. and for those not in the know, the UK car dealer launch is this thursday in London if you cant make Canary, but have your dealer close by!

Yeah!! To me the arches look like the cladding manufacturers put on their new cars to disguise them from prying eyes!
