2010 Benz E-class leaked official pics
Design cues from C-class....the rear looks more like Hyundai Sonata. Those exhausts look familiar.

That's too bad it went more towards the C class styling than the S class.
Not only does the rear look like a Sonata, but the center stack reminds of a GM center stack too! :thumbdown |
dislike the rear......so ugly
|
Decent fuel consumption figures, especially the diesels. The available Anthracite headliner is nice too.
Too bad about the exterior. Front end reminds me of the Lexus GS and the rear end a Lincoln MKS. |
Anyone who buys this car WILL just be buying it for the badge.
|
I really like the front end but the rear end kills me. The interior is nice, I like the modern look but the center stack's plastic kills it for me, heck my Jetta's center stack manages to make black plastic look better. I will have to see it in person, I thought the S was ugly as heck in pictures until I sat in one and fell in love.
If not, I'm going to get a smokin' deal on the 2009 E350, I love the current E, it's beautiful! |
The E350 is underpowered with only 272hp.
The next BMW 550 will have more power than the E500 with 388hp. Maybe they hired Japs or Korean designers for exterior and Chrysler guys for interior. http://i36.tinypic.com/24m713r.jpg |
That's exactly what it looks like happend!

wow, that's just ugly!

lazy designers..congrats you just ruined one of the best looking merc
|
my god ever since the merger with Chrysler, MB has gone down the sink ...... even after they sold Chrysler nothing has changed ....... they must of brought the entire design staff from Chrysler over to design the rear end ...... If I wanted to buy a car looking like a Hyundai then I would buy a Hyundai not a MB ....... MB is a Joke ..... that's too bad they used to make good auto's remember in the mid 80's the W201 190E 2.5-16V.... those were good veh.
|
It looks like its nose-diving when its standing still, it'll be upside down when you actually hit the brakes!

Hey look!! A Lexus GS....

its not bad, its more C- class than S i agree.
Im expecting Sport models to come along too (much like the C- Class) the new E couple (CLK replacement) looks good... This doesnt look great, but to be honest i found the current E class as interesting as being dead! Also the Co2 figures are pretty good! mostly under 200g/km!! |
Ugly benz.
|
Looks awful.. And the back looks absolutely hideous with Hyundai similarities...I'm sure performance wise its pedestrian as well..Looks like they also copied the eyebrows from the new 7 series bimmer...
If they think this is the 5-series killer...They're dead wrong..MB = crap, been that way ever since Daymler-Chrysler took over..Now its just Daymler..whooped dee do... |

no wait, i'm feeling something here, yup definately feeling something ;puke; |
Just not an MB guy. Bad lines, nightmare service and issues. You are better off getting the Lexus, at least you have service then and
a reasonable design.(imho);) |
I've always liked the current generation E-class. Several people at work have them and I think it is a sensible alternative to a 5 series if you want a little more luxury than sport. This, however, leaves me with a bad taste. I fear Mercedes is taking the sharp edge thing too far. The new GLK along with this new E is making MB look bad. It's a shame because I find the S with Sport Package to be one of the best looking cars on the road. :(

The current one looks way nicer than this...It's like they are taking themselves out careful MB Hyundai might be suing....

All Mercedes-Benzs might get a more Hyundai flare now. It appears MB just hired the design chief of Hyundai. Seriously.

Soon, MB might hire their marketing manager. It just might allay any reliability concerns one might have with Mercedes electronics.
