Thoughts here? The drop is too much but the wheels are classics and make any car look better IMHO. Still cant wrap my arms around the posterior or the pipes though:

I actually bought a set of 19 BBS LM's for my White E55. I am waiting to install after all the snow passes over here. Love the look, in terms of the drop just raise it slightly probably 1/2 inch from the back and we are in business!

Nice Jody- the 19's will look amazing on the white IMO- get the red centers to offset your tails.

His wife crazy
Wheels = Ok
Drop = Little too much
Car Color = OK
Window vents = FAIL
I may be one of the few that thinks the 212 is a hot looking car. It may not be photogenic, but in person, I would not be ashamed to be seen driving one.

BBS LM's definitely make almost any car look better. The W212 seems to be one of those cars that look better in person than in pictures (unlike the W211 which looks good anywhere, anytime)!

'15 E63S wagon
That much of a drop looks ridiculous. Makes the car even more out of proportion than it already is.
Plus the angle of the shot increases the rear-end's proportions...not good.
Love the wheels.

A real car and not photoshopped? I would love to see a few more pictures to make a educated call but I have to tell you....... I am undecided. I love the way the new E63 sound and drives but after further evaluation, I have to agree the the interior materials have taken a step backwards. Furthermore, I am on the fence regarding the exterior form. From some angles I think, "Wow!! Now this is a looker" and on other views it's just ....well.....Blah.
BTW, Merry Xmas my friend.
