I'm liking it more than the current one. This new S-class reminds me of a Maybach.
I still think the W220 looked better though.

I miss the fender flares already. This way the S class looks more like a Maybach

If you think that grille is huge, just wait to you see the spindle grille LS. It's gonna be colossal. Big is in again.

The proportions look a bit boring to me. The pictures make it look taller and narrower than the w221. Has more of the elegant look of the w220 to my eye. Can't wait for the unveiling.
