This is what I was talking about in my previous post. I know a lot of people don't like black wheels but i think this looks way better than a stock AMG line to me by deleting all the chrome on the luxury line. Also i like how the luxury line doesn't have the black area at the bottom of the rear bumper.

Agree! It’s the only thing I personally don’t like about the stock AMG line.

To me its the shape of the car. The luxury car appears bulbous to me in ways that having the more angular and lower looking cladding and fascias from the AMG line doesn't. I feel the same way about the W222. The W223 the grill on the luxury line looks bigger and like it sticks out more than it does on the AMG line.

This picture compared to the picture you posted illsutrates what I'm talking about. The front fascia feels lower to the ground with the AMG line, and it makes the whole front end flatter which makes the grill less prominent IMO:
