I can see where you are coming from with the W216 but I think the W215 is pure Mercedes styling.

I like the 215 styling good enough, but stay away from the V12. V8 should be fast enough for most fools.

Agreed. Still....the S600 and AMG models do have some really nice touches. Perhaps one could find a 500 spec up to 600 standards?

The worst part is the f-ugly headlights.
Very true. The ONLY part of the styling that I was ever iffy on were the headlights. It's not that they were bad, they just weren't anything to write home about.

Sorry I think the last "pure Mercedes style" was wt 140. But to each their own. Aesthetics are largely subjective after all.
