Yesterday I went to what was apparently the West Coast Premier of the new 2010 W212. Saw the E-Coupe and Sedan up close and personal and took a few pictures.

Enjoy.

Thanks for the lovely photos.

IMO, the black sedan with the AMG package and 3-bar grille looks much more aggressive than the white non-AMG sedan with the 4-bar grille. Presumably the latter one has the Elegance package ?

From looking at these photos, I'm still not sold on the swelling over the rear fender; it looks very contrived and out of place to me. Perhaps it looks better in real life ?

Excellent photos- Thank you!

I agree the Black sedan front treatment is a nicer look as is the Coupe overall.

I still haven't come to terms with the back end though. Some elements of the interior such as the upsloping of the wood treatment on the front dash seems chintzy. I get the feeling there is comparatively more plastic throughout.

Having seen it in the flesh- what is your overall impression?

Wow, the new E-Coupe is nice. Can't wait to see the E550 Coupe... I think that will be the next addition to my garage.

Thanks a lot for the pics...

Btw, did you happen to get any pics of the E550 Coupe with full AMG package?

QuadBenz

Btw, the E-Sedan with AMG is pretty nice too.
Any rear end shots?

E550 Sport Sedan: (again from Autoblog) This looks like Indium Grey, I really like it on the 212.

so is it the 350's come with the regular foglights and the 550's come with the L.E.D's or is that still the concept model?

pmb600

No, pretty sure LEDs come with Bi-Xenons. Double fogs seem to come with regular lights.

Thanks for posting. Those shots of the sedan are the best ones that I have seen.

QuadBenz

Thanks!!

Kirby

now that is what im talking about!

I would almost go with a non-AMG model if this is what the front would look like on a 550. I like the double fogs way more than the LED's.

I love the foglights and DRL on that black E550. This will be my mom's next car. I want some real E63 pictures, none of that staged ****.

Absolutely LOVE the new E-Class, was considering the CLS550 in Diamond White, but now leaning toward E550 coupe in white w/ AMG package... STUNNING!!!

Elegance version with extra cost lights packet it's looks like Avangarde (Xenon and Led included)

Why does this car have only 3 headlight-water spreader when it got 4 headlights?

Or is the "middle-one" not a water spreader and just for pulling the car away? Sorry my english is not very great.


An E-Class coupe parked near my house. The Car was in Silver. Looked so aggressive, I love it. I just wondered how big it is. Looks like the new cl. Great car and perfectly made for tuning.

QuadBenz

There are only 2 headlight washers. The 3rd you're referring to is the tow hook.

Thank you for sharing the pics. Very nicely done.
I can't wait to see the E550 Coupe in person.

I guess I have to get used to it because I was planning on getting another E350 or the 550 but the designers should be ashamed of themselves for coming up with a rear that looks like a pathetic Hyundai. A real shame.

The new side markers on the non-SUVs so often kill the look and ruins the flow for me. Nice photoshop.
