The lines are simply messy and the car is too slab sided. I guarantee that the front and rear are going to get a face lift in the next 24 months. The angular approach Benz try to undertake here was a mistake.

All in all, if I were in the market for a car like this, I'd rather spend less money and get a nice second hand SL63 optioned out from the last generation vs. this new one. Better yet, I'd just get a M6 with all the options.
