I'm definetely staying away from anything Damyler Chrysler, regardless if it's the Chrysler or Mercedes brand. I already made the mistake once. Bavarian Motor Works is the way to go.
I agree it kinda looks like a Lexus in the front... :thumbsdown:

But E60 is beter

I dig the S class, but not sure if the E class pulls it off. Need to see it in the flesh. Must say MB is showing some daring in its car designs. That Bangle guy pushed the envelope and I think he was right.

Just from an aesthetics standpoint, I'm really liking this car as I do the S class. However, the S class (and 7 series) is a little too big of a car for my needs and purposes. The E class/5 series is a good balance of size and performance. This car debuts in 2009? Hmmmm.....

This is a very elegant car. Very Mercedes and very much a smaller S class.
Like the present car though it will attract a different customer to the BMW 5 series.
It's the kind of car I might buy were I 10 years older

Yeah nice car I might buy it also 30 years from now.

Like other said it's a mini s class (which btw i don't get it how come people like it so much) combined with a lexus. FUGLY!

Here new S classes are like a whole regiment. Alot of them on the streets, it's even boring and look what. It became a standard for some people.

There are so many that they turned crazy.

Majority of E-class drivers are either retired people, or driving a taxi. Not my thing.
