It looks so boring and forgettable in white. If it wasn't for the rumble of the exhaust I wouldn't know if I was looking at a C300 or an E 63

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
This matryoshka way of designing that has permeates MB is killing me. Gone are the days when you can just make out the different classes at a quick glance even if fully debadged...I miss those days.

Noticing the lack of a pano roof - maybe late production?

other than the 'confused' staggered quad pipes on the gs-f.... the Lexus has a great rear end

the goatee front is strange

Yeah the exhaust tips on the GS-F look weak/fake.
Engine performance of the AMG is what saves them. But even that I am not impressed.
At this point I would just buy a W212 E63S.

Agreed... I would buy the wagon in fire-engine red like the RS6 Avant gets... but this might be best in the matt grey with carbon breaks...

Did I imagine a modest HUD in one of the reviews? That will be nice with limited info, like speed, and second optional feature via a menu.

Blah blah blah he's just sharing his opinion coming from a stupid clean aero pack'd black series... Pretty sure a w213 e63 would already be in the cards for someone coming out of a black series... if it didn't look so WEAK!

The softening of AMG's is well on it's way through brand deflation and giving in to these softer lines. I do love my FL E63S though, much more than this. No doubt the w213 will come with that performance edge though.

Stop moaning and start working harder on accepting people will have different opinions than yours which align with a lot of other people as well, Mr. Ignorant.

PS - Work smarter, not harder.

2014 E63s amg 4matic, 2009 C63, 2006 E55 AMG , 2001.5 AUDI S4 stg 3+ w/meth
at first i didnt like the w213 e63 as i just hated the rear, but the front is definitely meaner with the c63-esque hood bulges... I think the side looks a little e55-esque (not a bad thing)... the rear is starting to grow on me... the more i watch videos on the w213 the more i like it... for me, it just comes down to if tuners can get good performance out of it and if trq limitations and tranny lag is still there.... the power and potential is there just depends on how much can be unleashed

Why not? I'm considering a panoramic roof and would love to hear your negative feedback.

It totally does look legit rental grade haha. I'm not a fan of matte/satin finishes but the grey is actually okay. . . I guess the underlying paint is metallic enough that it doesn't take away from the lines of the car in my eyes. Only problem is. My friggin boss has an S63 coupe in Melanite grey. It would be downright embarrassing. Sigh.

I think matte cars have seen their day. Paint is back in style in all its glory although i agree with here. The only matte color that kinda speaks to me and i would consider getting is the selenite matte grey
