SEE IT @ http://mbspy.bacosys.be/w221.htm
My opinion: Much better, more aggressive & balanced design than the current S-class, especially the bigger grille & rear that resembles the new SL! A technical marvel. Due in late 2005. I always had some doubts about the current S-class looking too generic, feminine and 'Japanese', and lost all the power presence that the old (126) S-class had. You have to spend a fortune to get it to look right. Now - I will wait and see.
I hope this new design re-captures that masculine distinguished street presence that the current S-class style lacks. The length will be the same, but the wheelbase will be slightly longer + the car will come stock with 19s. Hopefully, the new body will be wider, very important to giving it the look it needs.
Let's hear some feedback.

hmm i m not feelin that new looks...kind of looks like that new 745...which imho doesn't look very appealing
think they should scrap the idea of a new s class in 2005 go back to the drawing boards and in the mean time... give the s class some new projector clear lights

2005 S-class
They need to scrap the current S-class which looks like every other generic Japmobile on the road, and go back to the drawing board and design a car that is large and commanding like the previous S-class!
