thx for sharing=)

aapriadi · 11-08-2006, 03:46 AM

yuck....the tail lights resembles acura or civic coupe..definitely not feeling the rear...looks like the new cl rear too which is another crappy design imo

BeeEmDubU · 11-08-2006, 02:11 PM

at first i thought it was a hyundai

vladinecko · 11-08-2006, 02:14 PM

sometimes, i have a feeling that car designers have changed their jobs so many times, they are sometimes confused what make they're currently working for...

yellowg555 · 11-08-2006, 02:16 PM

It looks like crap. The spy photos I saw before look way better.

nmulax · 11-08-2006, 02:33 PM

Not feeling it.

Am I the only one who first thought "Saturn Aura" when I saw the MB?

18LLC · 11-08-2006, 02:49 PM

looks like the trunk missing something...
but when i first time saw e90, i also think the tail looks like crap.

PresaMat · 11-08-2006, 02:55 PM

UGLY!!! Usually I like most of MB styling but this is horrid.

remmib · 11-08-2006, 03:16 PM

First opinion is that it look weird, mostly the rear

KL2DC · 11-08-2006, 03:19 PM

And we all thought the E90s taillights looked awkward when it first came out....

just4kickz · 11-08-2006, 03:34 PM

it has alot of resemblence of the rear of the new s class... i dont like the rear as much... id rather have it more boxy

Yup, and the S-Class was designed at the rear to look somewhat like the old Daimlers from the 80s. From this angle it seems something went horribly wrong with the transition from design inspiration to application on the new C-class.

But, I'll reserve judgement until I have the opportunity to see a real one and at the very least sit in it.

Edit: This particular car seems to have a panoramic sunroof, didn't think that would be offered on a C-class.

ALPINE6SPD · 11-09-2006, 10:16 AM

I dont think it looks that bad

parachute · 11-09-2006, 10:20 AM

Mercedes lost my respect when the launched the R-class
.....but got it back again when an sl500 passed me by, lol

ksfrogman · 11-09-2006, 10:22 AM

Back end looks chopped off?

a08_mthrizzle · 11-09-2006, 07:33 PM

To be honest I did not like Benz at first but then I started liking the design they were going. Especially the CL. Now with the new(er) models coming ... I think they're heading towards the same damn direction BMW is going. I guess AUdi it is ........

Buffalo_Bush · 11-09-2006, 07:50 PM

i really love the new toyotas.
