I'm sure it will look better in person, I think it looks nice. Let's not forget that Lexus copied Mercedes in the first place on the GS with the 4 eyed look. Making the lights on the E-Class angular fits with the curent design theme of MB.

Not sure what to think of it, maybe I just need some time to adjust to the new styling. I think the current look is more classy and exclusive. The new CLK never caught on to me with the peanut headlights.

He probably means the way the CLK has the two ovals that are merged together. As you know the 211 has the distinct 4 oval lights which gives it a much more serious look.
