True enough. You'll notice the side crease running fore-to-aft is reversed in the final version. It fold down instead of up.

Trunk Capacity

I have read from several sources that the trunk capacity will be 475 L.
That would make the trunk 16.77 Cubic Feet which is larger than the
S Class 16.3 Cubic Feet.

The only way I think they can get this capacity is to no longer include a spare tire. They probably reason that sinice BMW doesn't include a spare in their 3 Series, why should they in the C Class. It would be another cost savings along with reduced weight.

yeah, rear end looks alittle tiny for the size of the car. Almost looks like a hatchback. not feeling this at all. Doesn't matter anyway, I'm in love with the 335i coupe. Can't wait till my lease is up!

The rear looks good to me. Just can't wait to see the front. Should be sharp-looking and sporty.
