Ya thats good because Im not too much older than you! The thing that absolutely baffles me is that companies continue to make these mods and people continue to buy them, for thousands of dollars no less.

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
I'm sure this W212 exterior redesign will grow on me eventually. As of now, I'm still having a hard time with the entire front and the lower half of the rear. I'm sure that certain angles look nice and it probably looks better in person than on pics.

It's probably just the angle and the way certain pics are taken. Don't know why and I'm sorry to say this, but the way the exhausts are attached with the re-design reminds me of rectal prolapse.

I'm sure if I owned the older "classic" look I'd feel the same way...hehe. I think the refresh is a home run!

Those wheels look terrible. Sorry it wasn't a positive comment, but take it as constructive criticism.

agreed, it seems that the rear end keeps going, there should be nothing under the tips,

i agree. the new front end just doesnt suit the rest of the car. its like they pushed the old front end into an oven and it melted a little...

I hope you guys didn't scare them away with all the "constructive criticism" I am still waiting to see what the car looks like lowered with the KW kit and hear how the ride is. I wonder if the extra weight from the AWD system will really make a difference since the kit was designed for the RWD CLS and E63.

possible just the way the pictures were taken, but not a fan at all from looking at them, and that goes for both of these particular cars, the e and the sls. in my opinion not tastefully modded at all. but i guess everyone has different taste...

Don't mean to jump on the negative band-wagon, but I agree with others that these wheels do nothing for the 2014 E63. On both cars, the wheels look old and tired, and the stock rims are 100% better. I think the new look of the 2014 will grow on everyone and will look amazing with the appropriate wheel choices, alas, these are not the ones to showcase it. Please try some other options!

Awful wheel-style choice for these cars. Looks way to small on the E63.

Close--- it looks like the OP has C95's and I had C97's. Mine were 20's too and a drop will make it look better for sure but you need to also have the right color wheels with the right color car and accents IMHO:

Are you saying Vic's wheels are ugly? Or that they should do wheels like Vic's? Or that Hooters Restaurant should add an extra "T" to their name?
