I like the wrap-around glass look, provided it is executed properly. This is done properly:

This is NOT done properly:

Come to think of it, the plastic ribbed piece acting as a D-pillar for the Suburbam reminds of that African instrument made of wood which is scraped about with a stick.

Not too bad. It will be interesting to test drive.

Thanks for the pics.

Ha! The thing that's sometimes shaped like a fish! Hilarious. I think Santana's percussionist plays one.

If you take a look at the rear of the new ML 500 there, from the lights down, looks a lot like a Cayenne. The square pipes I guess are what reminds me of the Porsche. This is for sure a nice new design for the Star, but it's no X5!
