imo, they have the right idea with the front end, but a little too much going on. The rear end looks like a smaller version of the new Grand Cherokee mixed with the new ML. Doesn't look all that bad.

looks alright but definately too boxy. The front windshield is like stait up. Looks alot like the new jeeps. makes sense since they designed the new jeeps too.

I think the Grand Cherokee/Wrangler guys and the ML guys need a break from their group pokah/drinking bonding meetings, lol!

I think it will look better in person........maybe. That one's hard to tell.......I'm not a big fan of the "fender flares" on the new ML's and the new S Class...........they look like they're bolted on, rather than formed with the car..........

I don't think it's bad, but it's no trend setter either. Evidently the automakers have taken sheet metal stamping to new heights; complex angles and creases everywhere except the roof seems to be the trend.
