Looks beautiful! Save for the 2013 VW Beetle taillights, it's very elegant and flowing.
But this new model gives new meaning to one style fits all. There is now virtually no difference with the front of the C, E, and S. From a distance, Mercedes now has one sedan. How is losing models a positive thing? I think it's a detriment to the brand, as it has been with recent BMW's and Audis. We are technically getting less designs and less eye candy to feast our eyes on. *not progress*

Am i the only person who finds Mercedes latest design scheme totally out of shape. Doesn't look outright ugly, but looks very out of proportion. Random lines here and there.
People criticize Nissan's/Infinit's melted design language but at least it looks smooth and clean.

I think looking like shti is a bit overboard, sedate yes, but not ugly. I'd say the rear end of the TL would qualify as ugly not this. If anything I think it looks nicely restrained.
