If only the front did, too. Then traffic would clear out of the fast lane!

Not even close IMO. Have you seen the rear-end of the Camry? Now that's a similarity....

No doubt :(
We have both W210 and W211. Love the 210 to death because it looks less like a camry

Although I think the updated W211 taillights are cleaner looking than the ones on Camry, this similarity is one of the reasons that is holding me back from updating my rear.

Anyone that mistakes a Camry with an E-Class SERIOUSLY would need to get their eyes checked.

LOL. I was talking about the pattern of the red/clear taillights. Similar but not the same.

Obviously, as a whole, the rear end of the two cars are very much different.

Also, you have to remember that most car enthusiasts (like us) will have not problem seeing the difference. The general population, however, that is a different story.
