Overdone and the car looks un-driveable.

I agree! I realize it is a matter of taste but the effect added to these pics, IMHO, makes it look like someone was taking pics with a camera that had a dirty smeared lens.

You know what I am surprised that wheel advertisers haven't started doing yet (at least I haven't seen them), and that is posting video... Raw, unedited video of the wheels still and turning at speed.

And why so many pictures of the interior of the vehicle... We already know what the Edition 1 of the S63 Coupe looks like... And the exterior without the wheels for that matter...

Fugly wheels, look like Schnitzer's, and way too big for even decent ride. Maybe decent for a photoshoot, no bueno in real life.
