Some new, and exciting, W223 renderings! What are your guys' opinions?
Not a fan of the chrome strip over the rear lights... Now looking back at it, I see the chrome strip outline.

YUCK! Looks like a Hyundai. Ford Fusion sedan and Subaru Outback also have trapezoid grill. Mercedes has one of the most beautiful and recognizable grills. DO NOT CHANGE IT!
So happy my 2018 will be my "last" car before I die. This new one looks OK I guess, but, I'm not really sure. Maybe people hated the look of our 2014-2018's before they actually were everywhere on the roads. Many people said and still say that the C and E and S class look so similar that they're just not impressed. Doesn't bother me a bit, I still prefer the massive S Class. Just for the heck of it, and I'm single, 58, without a girlfriend or wife (at the moment).
Well, I always say that "this car will be my last car" but maybe I can at least keep it 10-15 years. It's not everyone's cup of tea but it's stealthy and almost looks a bit ugly, which is the appeal to me. It's not very noticeable. Yay to that.
2020 S560 Sedan, 2019 SL450, 2019 E450 Luxury Trim Wagon, '24 BMW I7 on order...
That does not look like a “rendering” to me, it looks like a photograph, perhaps with some retouching to make it look like something other than an actual photo. The car shown looks pretty much exactly like a car I saw about a year ago at one of those new car survey seminars that I attended. The car also had an ENORMOUS touch pad in the center stack that measured approx. 12” wide and maybe 16” tall. As I recall, they were also talking about Tesla style retracting door handles. Even though I am just over a year into my 3 year lease of my 2018 S560, I am thinking of ordering a new one now, before they stop making the W222

Wow, that is quite interesting. I planned on keeping my W222 S550 until 2021/2022 regardless, so I am interested to see what happens or I will switch to the new Jaguar XJ possibly. I would love to stay in the Mercedes family because nothing is like an S-Class.
I could live with the exterior like that, since I don't care much whether it looks good to other people, comfort, dynamics and luxury matter much more to me.
I can not live with the Tesla like giant IPHONE in the middle of the dashboard though, not even if the car was given to me.
