They are trying to make things a little bit more uniform across the sedan lines...I know these are just "spy" photos, but IMO they need to work on it a bit more before it hits the market

I hope that 544 hp figure is just a rumor. I'm hoping for a twin turbo 6.3 engine or 550 engine

Ackkk.

The Chrysler influence. The new C class is the twin of the Sebring.

This looks like a bigger version of that with ugly rectangular headlights.

Heck, I prefer the E55 to the 63. Can't see myself in this new one.

Had to move from BMW to Mercedes because of the ugly new BMWs. Where will I go when my E55 wears out?

No longer car shopping...
Well, I am surprised no one on here is commenting about the OBVIOUS front wheel traction in the videos. This car has AWD guys. Is this a 4-matic test? AWD on a 6.3 would be.....

Also, I LIKE the fact that it appears that they may have also strecthed out the E-class (finally) to a slightly longer wheelbase (probably about the size of a 750i (not the L) which would give Benz that direct competitor to the smaller 7-series (finally)

That would be awsome.

After looking at the spy pictures...i dunno if it will look like the Photoshop pic. I really hope it dosen't. I don't like the BULKY fenders of the S-Class....not smooth at all. But the Spy photos do not reveal the bulky rear fender that the photoshop has. I'm kina mad about the bulky fenders the C63 will be getting.
