Question: Is anyone not happy with the grill?

So, I have been entertaining the idea of getting the S63-65 AMG coupe, but I don't like the rear end or the grill?

Does anyone else think that the sedan grill looks better? Just curious?

Obviously that's a matter of personal taste but I think the coupe's grill and butt look great

There are a few other things I definitely prefer on the sedan model though:
  • rotating/popout tweeters with high end audio system, static on coupe
  • tilting/sliding section of pano roof, fixed on coupe
  • diamond pattern leather on dashboard, plain on coupe

The sedan is clear the better value, it is more spacious and considerably cheaper even when equipment standard on the coupe is added. And 7% or higher discounts off MSRP are readily available on the sedan. I think the coupe is still generally selling for near MSRP; that will change next year as more second hand 2015 models reach the market along with the expiration of 24 mo leases, plus the cabriolet will be arriving. For me, it's the coupe all the way because of its striking exterior design and more sporty nature - but if you don't mind driving a large four door luxury sedan, the 4 dr does certainly have some advantages.
