First thing that came to my mind: Camry!

What a crappy Photochop. in the bottom pic the front end is bigger in proportion to the rear, LOL.

It's very evolutionary. I don't much care for the faces on M-B's cars lately.

Looks like Bangle might have been moonlighting at Mercedes. It's hard to say without seeing it in person, but it seems like the car will have less presence than the outgoing model with the droopy side profile. Mind you, it's still beautiful.

I wonder if it shares parts with the Maybach.

Not very impressed with the new stylings of the Mercedes Line. They do seem to look very droopy in the rear, not very sporty IMO.

Too conservative for my tastes.

Styling aside, I'm wondering what gadgets and doodads this series will have. I can't imagine they can put much more into them. Maybe there will be a feature where the seat actually scratches your ass!

They should make them out of Aluminum so they can shed 500 lbs.

That is a photochop so I wouldn't get my hopes up (or down) about this.
Look at the wheel wells, that is where you can see it most, the fenders are all jagged. I dont know what they did with the fenders but they ef'd up thier chop in the process.
