Autospies.com sure has some chutzpah to call the speculative illustration a spy "photo" this far out. Who are they kidding? If you think the CLS is the future of M-B styling, then the illustration reasonably extrapolates CLS styling to the E-Class. What about the SUV-style wheel arches on the new S-Class, though? Are they the real future of M-B styling? If so, where are they on the illustration? Only DCX knows at this point, and they aren't telling.

highly doubt this is anything like the real thing. especially the front bumper MB would never make it so dramatic. Point incase AutoSpies is lame.

I can dig it. Aint gonna look like that tho. I hope the 20mm increase in length is true, and maybe more rear leg room and a trunk space for 3 bodies instead of 5?

It looks so much like the 07 S Class, it could re real. That's their philosophy. The next C class will also look similar.
