I like the font... but can't say I am feeling the way the rear or the interior looks. To each it's own I guess.

Looks great!

Can you post some better pics of the front/rear? Can't see the lines - too dark. Maybe better lighting would do the trick

The 2010 S63 is going to have a strip of LED fog lights and a more trapezoidal front end like this. It's definitely unique.

Those LED's look like they were literally stuck on with tape, and they put on a knock-off CLK black series front bumper. Thumbs down.

Also, back end: Exhaust remind me of the 2010 E63 slightly, and also the Reventon, just not in a good way.

That Relux "makeover" should be called... Batmobile wannabe.
Another example of how to spoil a beautiful design and change it to a nightmare.
Word - UGLY- is an understatement here.

I liked it from the front.

I could go either way on the interior.

The back it too much time traveling Delorean influence for me.
