You cannot tell me that this is not a great looking car. Love the color (Cuprite Brown......WTF) and I am seriously considering a E55 to E63 exchange.............GASP!!!!!

reminds me of the funky colors MB used to offer back in the day , gone are the funky purples and greens . I would love to see a rust color .

I better start saving to get a set of those wheels (take offs)..

I like my CLS55 wheels, but the gray color look is out! Machine finished is in.

Mercedes doesn't do the blue windows anymore??

That head on shot is impressive...I'm still partial to the coupe but these pics give credence to the sedan as being a good choice.

I'm sorry but the moment I saw the tan interior, it was a fail...

Just IMHO...

Does anyone know if these wheels will fit the W211 body? They are sweet!!

lbE55

That might be the best looking brown car that I've ever seen . . ..

slap your LMs on & then it may look better - still not feeling the change yet.

Very nice would like to see better pics of that color, interesting. Partial close-up of the tips looks better than most.

I tried that.......my PS skills are a bit weak but you get the idea:



I also like this black one. You guys need to drive one of these before you condemn the car.

AMGfan

Rock...not a bad job...the LM's look good on it.

CharlyE500

Cost down my friend ! every cost counts so hope the quality still the same.

CharlyE500

Black color looks much better

The front of this car is off the chain, trhe rear and rear fender is off the chain in a different direction.


Im sure we will get used to it but the 211 will be difficult to surpass. Only real way to do it is to look at the W219

I don't care what type/size wheels are slapped on this body, it will remain wrong-looking to me. I am trying heard to come up with an uglier benz sedan from the past 30 years... and I can't. The original 6.9 from the 70s was stunning back then, so was the SEL of the 80s. The 190 was a nice looking sedan (remember the 16V version? very masculine). The 500E that followed is a classic and again very masculine looking car. The C36/43 was hot. So were the 210/211 AMGs. But this? I seriously think that it is a huge design failure - So incredibly generic and somewhat out of balance. It is hard to believe that it comes from the same brand who brought us the CLS, one of the most beautiful and timeless sedans ever. Even the S class that lady D was killed in was better looking (don't know the model #)...

Not a good looking car.

JustPete

To be completely honest ... I'm not feeling it.

I don't like the sharp edged exterior. Squared headlamps and exhaust ... meh.

Curves are sexy ... Hard sharp edges look like Japanese Shogun Robot Anime to me.

I'd keep my pre-2010 E class over these for sure.

IMO they even screwed the pooch on that center console which otherwise may have been pretty cool featurewise.

Exactly what made me go from midnight back to six o'clock...

Not feeling it? Drive it and you can't help but feel it. Exhaust? Take a good listen it's the best stock by far. Compared to my 05 55 and 07 63 my 2010 is by far the best. You don't like the way it looks fine with me. The car is a great car. Keeping your 211 and trashing the hell out of the 212 isn't going to make the 211 any better.

No sense in bashing others because they have a difference in opinion. You like it, fine. Others do not, fine as well. Why do a few of you feel that everyone should agree with you?

Driving a car will not take away how someone feels about the exterior of the car. I am sure the car drives great. But again, by far, does not matter which forum you are on, the styling is not universally liked at the least, so for those few that want to bash everyone that does not like the styling of this car, better get busy because not many care for it.

Myself, it is just OK. OK interior, and ho hum exterior. It damn well better drive nice as it has much to make up IMO.
