just looked at the march automoble mag and i saw a pic that showed the 2005 S class

well the headlamps are just one giant circle on each side kind of like the subaru wrx the rest of the car didnt look that different.

i dont know what else to say...

 

Don't worry - the pic is a photoshopped E-Class with lights from the BMW Mini.

 

lol...good analogy..but y would they post photoshopped pics in the mag..plain stupid

 

ya i agree. also when i looked at some spyshots it looked very similar to the mag.

 

It sells! People want to see pictures/controversy whether its real or not. Why do tabloids have all of those outgrageous stories even though they are 99% bs?

 

first impressions are last impressions

 

Has anyone have a picture they can post of this S class?

 

heh..tru..we ve talkin about this class and dont know evn how it looks like

 

Guys, don't cpseculate and just plain explain, MB has a habit of producing teh finest cars in history, trust me all this whining about oooh, I hat eteh SLR nose and the Maybach rear end, please don't put that on to the Sl or teh S-class.


When you guys see the next generation of all curent MB models, you will be over the moon,

 

Here's one set of outrageous photoshops that was shown in the auto mags. This is the one that has many parts of the W211 E-Class mixed with the Mini.

 

2nd pic of that p-shop:

 

3rd pic:

 

This is the older (also outrageous) set of photoshops. These pics were taken from MBSPY (www.mbspy.com), which has a whole nice page proving that these are baseless p-shops. BTW these were also published in a lot of auto mags.

 

As MBSpy shows, that pic was obviously photoshopped from the MB press photo of the C-Class shown below:

 

This is another 'interesting' and IMO ugly pic from this group. The creator seems to assume MB will copy BMW's 7-series hump, which I find kind of funny considering the original idea for the hump seems to have come from one of the MB design proposals (rejected) for the W220 S-class. I'll post pics of those if anyone want them - MBSpy also has them under 'W220 Design studies' I believe.

 

I've seen all those photoshops before, but the newest Motor Trend has a real picture of the S-class. But it is a small pic and is pretty well camouflaged so you can't tell much about what it will look like.

Those photshops are horrible though. That one rear view is the current S with an E-class rear bumper and a 745 trunk lid. I doubt they're gonna follow after BMW with that ugly trunk lid. And the rear view right above this post looks like it is an E-class with that same ugly trunk lid.

 

hey Matt, what month of motor trend, i wanna go look at it at my local barnes and noble

 

It's the April issue with '05 Corvette on the cover. The S-class pic is on p. 40, but it's pretty small

 

the designs dont look very good to me..could ve worked a little more in the front

 

whee!!! thanks!!

I have the Maybach rear end too! its like "I poops everywhere ands yous likes its!"

but the F1 nose on the SLR looks ok for me because it has a very long hood.

 

I think you can tell thats fake because i dont think they will put dual exhaust for the S500..

 

WAIT! So you are telling me that the pictures of the alien space baby Hillary had are not real????
