No one should base an opinion of the looks of this car from photos like this. The only parts of this mule that aren't camo'd are the roof, windshield and wheels. They camo it quite harshly on purpose because they want it to be a secret.

I'm the type who can't wait for a better car to come out so that I can buy the previous generation at a much lower price point. C'mon SL63 price drops!

Good luck since the prices will probably drop even more.

I don't think we can tell much from that picture. Nothing looks like it's part of the final car.
