I dunno. This car generates less response in me than a CamCord.
I've never been able to get excited about Mercedeses.
Ever.
Even the AMG ones.
Auto-only, boring styling, tank-like body structure, and (most importantly) huge prices all add up to a big "meh" in my book.
Where's the value?
Where's the folly?
Where's the passion?
Where's the awesome?
In my book these things are worse than a CamCord of FusiBu. To buy an E-class, you've gotta be willing to spend a metric assload of money to be that much more detached from the driving experience.

I don't like those stupid fender arches though.

It's almost like, after the Daimler/Chrysler breakup, Daimler went off on its own, only to discover it had acquired a sexually transmitted design disease during the pair's less than passionate tryst, and was left infected with the dreaded "Sebring Disorder".

Even if you're gonna run in auto-manual mode, then you could use paddles or wheel-mounted buttons.
AFAIK, pretty much all autobox "shifters" aren't connected to anything mechanical. They're just a humongously oversized switch.
Might as well abandon that myth and use space more effectively.

I was comparing the switch gear around the steering wheel with the left-over parts Daimler made Chrysler use.. mainly the WTF were they thinking levers near the top of the wheel. mainly the cruse control stalk being where the signal stalk usually is. Same crapola on the crossfire. Same crapola on the new e-class.

Funny how bad some control stalks are getting these days. My 91 Wrangler had a wiper/signal control than a lot of new luxury cars.
