First 3-D look at the new E: AWE!!!
I just saw a shipload of new E 211s - 320s & 500s - at Miami MB.
What a beautiful car! It looks a step up and resembles the S class, inside and
out. Depending on options, the MSRP range was from low 50s to mid 60s.
My favorite combi was brilliant silver and charcoal w/burled walnut. Very rich!
For myself, I'll skip the 209 CLK generation. The new CLK instead of being a step
UP from the visual design like the E class, regrettably it's -- a step DOWN.
I am looking forward to the E-motion event on Sunday; - to check, where the E's rubber meets the road!!

Your impression of the 211 vs. 210 and 209 vs. 208 is shared by several other critical reviewers/resources I've browsed.
Many think the CLK has regressed toward the C class.
I haven't seen any negative commentary regarding the evolution of the E.
