Mercedes all the way!
looks pretty good to me
could have been more adventurous, but since Merc is going back to their roots, i guess that's not gona happen. if anyone's seen the B-class, i guess the front will look very similar.
i'm a bit worried about the rear lights though. not a big fan of more "vertical" rear lights...

The headlights look good from the side but when you are in front of the car it looks like a Honda or GM car.

yeah, but its real. Most likely the exterior renditions are right on the money as well. YUCK YUCK YUCK!!! WTF is MB doing? I won't be buying another if it looks this bad.
That interior could be right out of the seventies or eighties if it weren't for the slit for a cd.

And, as a bonus, we get ugly interiors, asian styling, BMW trunklids, and, if you look closely, the car in the picture has an I drive, or whatever gay *** name the MB marketing hacks come up with to call the MB version of it...probably Mousetronic.
On the plus side, the C350SE Coupe is getting great reviews in Europe and England...and I can't buy one....fricken MBUSA....

I think all the new Benz's have been designed very well, Especially the new MLs, i love it. The slk, the s class, the cls and the gl, are amazing designs. I really dont think we will be disappointed. I will reserve judgement till i see it in person.
